I'm a huge Formula 1 fan and I was really intrigued by this premise: a Formula 1 female engineer falls for a Formula 1 driver. I loved the idea of the female engineer and the STEM components of this book, but it was a huge miss for me. So much so that I can't believe this passed to be published. This reads like a fanfiction and not in a good way. Both of the main characters are unlikeable. Phaedra is described as a character you should like, because she's a female engineer and super smart and loves Formula 1. Well, she isn't. She was quite annoying throughout the book. Cosmin is described as intense and committed but he's actually a giant jerk and borderline domestic abuser. It comes across as gross and I did not like him at all. I really didn't feel the chemistry between these two either. It was way too instalove for me and lack of communication and boundary pushing made it even worse. The dialogue was horrible and it was poorly written. The one highlight for me was that the Formula 1 descriptions and aspects of the book were really good. The author really did well with these details. I'm really sad because I was really looking forward to this and thought it would be so good but it just wasn't. 

Thank you to NetGalley, Josie Juniper, and Forever for the eARC of this book.
