Description
Fired in a spectacular fashion from a job she loved, Lily Onassis has resigned herself to spending her days comfort-baking in her condo. But when her father has a heart attack, her life takes an immediate U-turn. As he’s wheeled into surgery, he has one request: he wants Lily to take over running his Formula World Team, which includes managing their sexy star driver, Max Becker.
Max and Lily have a history, and when she walked away from their affair years ago, she swore she’d never go back to racing or to Max. She wanted a quiet, drama-free life—while he was the rising star of Formula World.
Back in close proximity, the two must fight their burning attraction and keep their relationship strictly professional. Lily’s got a job to do . . . and so does Max. No distractions. But as the season develops so do their feelings, and the pair must confront the fact that they’ve been given a second chance. Maybe this time they shouldn’t walk away.

This book was super cute and such a quick read! I loved the premise of the book & the characters had a fantastic little banter thing going on. The main characters were clever, funny, and overall just a joy to read about.
The plot itself was really interesting and a part of me wished I got more of it, but the book itself did a great job at telling the story and wrapping it up by the end so perfectly. Such a great read!
I loved this book! I devoured it in only a few sittings and wish there was more to read. The story line was paced very well and the characters were easy to love!
I absolutely loved this book! Second chance romance is a trope that is hard to pull off in a convincing way, but this one just *works.* The spice was nicely spicy, too--just right!
A cute, sweet romance novel that was fun to read! Quick cadence, fun plot line, and original idea with the Formula 1 sport.
I liked the pacing of this book and the characters of Lily and Max and the banter between them really set the pages on fire. I couldn't put this book down and stayed up way too late reading this gem. I love romances set in the racing world and always try to grab them when I can.
