I make sure she comes multiple times before I do because my nanny raised a gentleman after all, no thanks to my parents.” ➟ this quote reminded me why I hate men.Īnyways, Maya wasn’t any better. “I got shit-faced last night, where one drink turned into five and here, I am, being called a dick by another chick. Let’s start with this darling quote from our amazing hero: To be honest sometimes the manwhore act works for me but this time it sure as hell didn’t. He was the typical manwhore with familial issues that did not want to settle down but that one girl – Maya – changed everything.

It had almost every cliché in the book, especially with Noah. And I am not gonna lie, that literally is the best way to describe this book. I saw a review before I read this that said this was like a well written Wattpad book. This also had the cliches of an manwhore athlete as the hero and the family-oriented woman as the heroine. This was a bit of a forbidden romance since Santigo, Maya’s brother, hates Noah. This was about a F1 Racer, Noah and Maya his teammates sister. Trigger Warning: Physical and Verbal Abuse They’re a cute couple, I just wanted to be obsessed with them and I wasn’t. For example, “There’s a shit ton of smoke coming from the car, making it hard to breathe.” When read in context of the chapter, I feel like dropping that last part would have made it more charged, except it read as internal thoughts and not the descriptor dialogue it was meant for.

I was invested with Noah and Maya and they had some really sweet moments. I also obviously want to acknowledge that I very much hyped this book up for myself, but I also kept an open mind going into it because I’ve never read a Formula 1 romance before, much less other works from the author. long? Like a lot happens while also not very much? I’m just not really too into the pace of the book. The sarcastic, successful jerk who the media dubs as a playboy who takes no shit from anyone. This is as much romance as it is somewhat diving into their world as race car drivers, which is obviously the entire appeal of Noah Slade.

The entire story occurs within ten months or so, so as it progresses from chapter to chapter, you’ll get some where several weeks pass by vs several days. There are parts of the dialogue that I think could have been excluded. I didn’t hate or dislike the book, but I wasn’t super in love with it either.
