About this listen

Race into a sexy New Adult romance, set in the fast-paced world of Formula One. These friends-to-lovers are about to fall…fast and reckless.

He’s the one man she can’t have…

Will Hawley is everything Mira Wentworth should avoid. He’s devastatingly hot, king of the party boys, and the new driver on her father’s Formula One team. Mira learned her lesson about drivers the hard way after a mistake cost her everything. She’s spent years trying to make her way back into the world of racing. Now, as a team assistant, she has her second chance, and no one is going to get in her way.

She’s the one woman he wants…

After his party boy antics nearly blew up his racing career, Will is finally back in the driver’s seat and determined to get onto the podium. He likes to think he’s reformed, but with one look at the boss’ daughter, he’s willing to risk it all.

As the heat builds between Mira and Will, their chemistry deepens into something more. But when the ugly events of the past come to call, their fragile new relationship is put to the test. Can Mira and Will’s love cross the finish line?

I love F1 Romances

Fast & Reckless by Amanda Weaver
Formula 1 Romance. Standalone. First in a related series.

“He could feel it happening, like something locking into place in his heart. He was falling for this girl like he’d fallen for racing: hard, fast, and irrevocably.”

If you know me, you know I’m a HUGE F1 fan. I’ve read a good number of F1 romance books, including beta reading one that’s yet to release. I even have a list of EVERY F1 romance I’ve found on my blog, with links to my reviews. But honestly, they’re starting to blur together, especially when so many involve a driver and the team principal’s daughter (or the PR person).

“This was what she’d missed. The track, the cars, the sound.”

Mira is back on the grid after years away, following a scandal from her teenage years. She’s determined to win back her father’s approval, so she’s doing everything she can to be perfect at her job. Will, the new driver on her father’s team, pursues her right from day one, and suddenly becomes the reformed bad boy when he meets her.

Their attraction is instant, but Mira does her best to hold back her growing feelings—after all, the last thing she needs is another public scandal. I liked how they bonded over their love of racing, and Amanda Weaver did a great job depicting the importance of drivers needing to clear their heads to race.

Weaver made F1 accessible to the average romance reader while still satisfying someone like me, who’s obsessed with the sport. Her racing details were accurate, though I wish she’d done a little more research on the cities they visited. A public hookup in Singapore? Really?

My favorite part of Fast & Reckless was when Mira had a heart-to-heart with her dad. I even teared up a little. I was so annoyed throughout the book that she was blamed for what a 30-year-old driver did to her when she was only 16, but her dad redeemed himself in that scene.

Likes:
•Accurate F1 racing.
•The realistic depiction of the difficulties women face in motorsports.
•Though it was insta-lust, the couple took time to get to know each other.
•Just the right amount of sex.
•Crisp, quick writing.
•Exciting on-track racing.
•Great chemistry between the characters.

Dislikes:
•It feels like I’ve read this story before—the team principal’s daughter and a driver trope is as common in F1 romance as the coach’s daughter is in hockey romance.
•It blends in with other F1 books.
•I would’ve liked to see more cultural detail about the cities they visited.

🎧Audio Note: I grabbed the audiobook when it released and for the last third switched back & forth. I loved that Zac Smith had an accent and I thought Samantha Summers was great. It made me excited to relisten to this before Kiss & Collide comes out.

The Down & Dirty:
Fast & Reckless by Amanda Weaver is one of the better F1 books I’ve read. The racing descriptions were accurate and easy to follow for non-racing fans, but still detailed enough for die-hard F1 enthusiasts. The couple had great chemistry, and I always love a forbidden romance. My only issue is that the story didn’t feel unique—it’s easy to mix up with other F1 romances involving the team principal’s daughter. Still, I devoured it quickly and can’t wait for the next book in the series, Kiss & Collide.

Rating: 4 Stars, 3 heat
