Mia Neal’s bounced from degree to degree and career to career all of her adult life. She’s finally found a place where she belongs, though—talking about all things Formula One in her podcast Not So Fast. When a few of her snarkier opinions on her favorite driver, Xander Bishop, go viral, she suddenly has more attention than she’d ever expected, including a behind-the-scenes invite to the Miami Grand Prix from that driver’s biggest rival. Xander has only ever wanted to be a race car driver. But his current season has him all up in his head, and it’s showing in his poor performance on the track. Meeting the sexy fan who’s been throwing shade about him online should be one more aggravation in a difficult season, but instead, he can’t stop thinking about her. Mia’s worried that her fans will lose all respect for her if they realize she and Xander are growing close, but Xander doesn’t want to keep their growing relationship a secret forever.
VERDICT Booth’s (Swap and Smell the Roses) latest is perfect for sports romance fans, whether or not they follow motorsports.
