An addictive new adult Formula One romance, perfect for fans of BookTok faves Hannah Grace and Lauren Asher.

He’s a future F1 champion, but she’s making it hard to stay on track…

F1’s resident bad boy Giovanni Bauer needs to turn his reputation around fast - or risk losing his place on the team.

Maisie Evans is a dedicated university student, who still secretly dreams of the glittering sports career she abandoned.

When Gio and Maisie's worlds collide, the answer to their problems seems obvious: a fake relationship. She gets to travel and brush shoulders with sports royalty, and he gets to fix his public image.

But as sparks fly - on and off the track - will their 'relationship' make it across the finish line, or crash and burn?

A combination of F1 and fake dating was always going to be a winner for me. 

And I'm delighted to have been able to read Jenni Fletcher's first foray into the world of F1 romances, which are a world apart from the historical romances she normally writes. 

I loved Maisie and Gio, and everything to do with them. 

The more time we spent with Gio, the more I fell for him myself, and arguably faster than  Maisie.

Gio is the one that suggests the fake relationship in order to try to help rebuild his image and to keep his seat, And after some persuasion Maisie. agrees to the charade, especially once she realises it will help her current uni paper. 

I was hooked on all the F1 details that were included in the book, and can just about forgive the author for changing where the season ends, 

It was highly enjoyable and I was totally hooked. 

Thank you to Penguin and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
