Publisher's summary

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?

Really well crafted world and relationships

I picked this book up on a whim and I was beyond impressed. Like other reviewers have mentioned the obvious attention and reality to all the F1 racing intricacies really grounds this story. It’s not just a romance with an F1 shell around it.

Their romance could use some actual drama with stakes but that’s a small gripe. I hope the series continues.

Great F1 romance

Double Apex is book one in the Frontrunners series by Josie Juniper.

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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
