Double Apex was my second F1 romance and it didn't miss!  What did miss was the writing.  I think for a debut author, Josie Juniper did well and I think with more experience and refinement, she's going to be a future powerhouse.  Unfortunately for me, the poor writing really took away from the story.  No tension was built.  There were a lot of opportunities to build tension and each opportunity fell flat.  I struggled for the first 50% of this book to get into it.  I found the FMC, Phae, to be very pretentious and I really struggled to like her.  I wasn't getting STEM FMC, I was getting pretentious, spoiled, genius kid. Cos as the MMC was more relatable, but his POVs were also a struggle to get through. I don't want to list out my issues because I don't want this review to be a rant, I want it to be positive.  There is absolute room for growth and I can't wait to see it in future books.

I received a free ARC of this book from the publisher and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
