About this listen
A brilliant engineer and a cocky racecar driver pair enter a forbidden arrangement in this spicy enemies-to-lovers romance.
Phaedra Morgan is one of the best race engineers in Formula 1. She’s a math prodigy with dazzling skill, cutting wit, and no patience for matters of the heart. Of course, her job would be a lot easier if she didn’t keep butting heads with their team’s cocky and infuriatingly hot new driver.
Cosmin Ardelean is intense and committed, but as famous for his off-track romantic exploits as his on-track wizardry. Yet his devil-may-care façade conceals a haunted past. When the pair strikes up a secret—and thrillingly forbidden—“arrangement” to improve their communication and bond of trust, the heat of their attraction turns to something more . . .
But no secret stays hidden for long in the racing world, and soon things are spinning out of control. With everything on the line, will they be able to strip away all their defenses and go full throttle for a chance at love?

Story
As the team’s publicist, I desperately need a football player to be the face of our charity calendar. Turns out our one-time party boy receiver Jones Beckett needs a savvy PR woman to manage his new good guy rep. Sounds like a simple give and take, even though I’ll be traveling around the country, snapping pictures of the sexy athlete holding rescue kittens and puppies. Still, I’m dedicated to my job, so I'll stick to my iron-clad rule—don't date a player. And never ever fall for one. No matter how charming, big-hearted and devilishly clever the man is.

Story
Daphne Brink doesn’t follow baseball, but watching “America’s Snoozefest” certainly beats sitting at home in the days after she signs her divorce papers. After one too many ballpark beers, she heckles Carolina Battery player Chris Kepler, who quickly proves there might actually be a little crying in baseball. Horrified, Daphne reaches out to Chris on social media to apologize . . . but forgets to identify herself as his heckler in her message.

Story
Knox Holland is in a jam. After an incredible first year on the pro motocross circuit, he should be on top of the world. Instead, his bad reputation has landed him without a team. He's untouchable and desperate to turn it around. Which is how he ends up at my gym asking me to train him. As a college gymnast with two Olympic medals to my name, I know a thing or two about the pressure to succeed. Last season I choked and then injured myself before I could show the world that I'm not a twenty-year-old has-been.

Story
Noah Slade is a Formula 1 legend in the making. Focused. Unapproachable. Ruthless on and off the track. A man with walls higher than the Grand Canyon. And my brother's new teammate. I want more of the prince who disguises himself as the villain. But while I crave a happy ending, he wants to destroy his. Maya Alatorre is a forbidden temptation. An ambitious post-grad I should stay far away from. And chaos wrapped with a bow. We're a ticking time bomb, about one wrong move away from exploding. I want to trip the wire, detonating together in passion and pain.

Critic reviews
“A spicy must-read for F1 fans and STEM nerds!”—Abby Jimenez, New York Times bestselling author
Mackenzie Cartwright and Jonathan Lake really bring these characters to life. I really enjoyed listening to this audiobook. I’ll definitely listen to these narrators in the future.
Phaedra Morgan is an excellent race engineer working for her father’s Formula 1 team. She’s a math wizard and excels in this male dominated field. Phaedra loathes her team’s driver, Cosmin Ardelean, because he’s constantly flirting and not taking her seriously. Despite his reputation, Cosmin is a phenomenal driver and is just what his new team needs to pull themselves up from the midfield. He’s not the flirt the world believes him to be, he’s close with his sister and co-founded a children’s home for orphans. His rocky relationship with Phaedra is causing issues within the team and the pair are forced into spending time together under the guise of team bonding. They do in fact find some common ground and eventually strike up an arrangement of sorts. Can their relationship stay a secret and is that what they really want?
As an avid F1 fan myself, I really enjoyed this fast paced sports romance. I found this story to be multilayered and full of heart, heat, grief, complicated family dynamics, and believable F1 content. My only issue was the lack of communication that lead to the majority of the couples problems.
Read this if you like:
-F1 romance
-alternating POV
-lots of steam
-secret relationship
4/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
🌶️🌶️🌶️
Great F1 romance

Loved it!

Their romance could use some actual drama with stakes but that’s a small gripe. I hope the series continues.
Really well crafted world and relationships
