Wow, surprisingly good. Like the ending was so cute. The characters were well done and fleshed out. Although there was some possesiveness that I did not enjoy from the MMC. There was a lot of the next couple in this series in this book too, not sure how I feel about that.

Its a fun spicy read but its not very well written in my opinion, there are parts where i was yelling “no one speaks like that!” And i had to take breaks because i was finding it too cringe at parts, but the spicy scenes are pretty good if you ignore the moments like “i sucked his **** like an Olympic sport”, yikes, plus if youre actually into f1 there are parts that wouldn’t actually be allowed to happen irl i imagine so a little exaggerated but for my first spicy book it wasnt too bad!

this was honestly really bad :( it was all telling instead of showing, the characters were extremely one dimensional, and the pacing was wacky. this book had so much potential and it fell flat. it’s hard to believe the same author wrote the lakefront billionaire series bc the pen was on fire for those.

Not written very well, but it made me smile at parts. Characters were somewhat likable, but way too much telling instead of showing.

I really wanted to like this because I love F1 but it was so hard to get into. There were parts I liked but most I was trying to get through.
