A very strong 4.25, I actually really liked the main characters and there relationship surprisingly was really healthy and sweet (also this is not erotica idk why its classed as that). I probably won't read the next book cause I really didn't like Sophie or Liam that much in this one to read from there pov and relationship but I may read jaxs book cause I quite liked him.

I’m not much of a sport romance girl, but this F1 backdrop was fun. With all the traveling and parties. I really liked Maya as a character, so well rounded and sweet/sassy. Noah’s character arch is what I always want from this archetype of MMC. Their chemistry was great. Though Noah’s parents can rot in hell. 

Sports Romance, Player MMC, Mutual Pining, 3 🔥

Lauren Asher never fails. I didn’t think I’d go for the whole bad-boy racer thing but damn if Throttled changed my mind. 

I think Noah & Santi’s relationship could have been a bit more fleshed out. Also, someone who has been the vicitm of childhood and domestic violence does not get over it after a few weeks of therapy.

Didn’t enjoy the perspective the book was in. The overall plot was super cheesy but like in a well preformed way. Kinda predictable. Spicier than what it appears. Got me into liking hot f1 racers though 🤭. Like F1 is up there with Hockey players right but their are not any high quality edits on tik tok which is extremely disappointing.

Maybe it’s because I already watch F1 racing and the behind the scenes on Netflix, but I really enjoyed this book. I do agree that the beginning was slow but there is a lot to the race. My heart was literally racing the first chapter 😮‍💨 

Unpopularity opinion, so far I’m enjoying this series more than the Dreamland Billionaires series. I recognize that I am the type of reader that needs more context in the stories I read which is why I liked this book a lot.  It not only focused on the relationship but everything else that was happening. Maya and Noah compliment each other so well 💕 I was melting while reading the softer moments in the book.

I really liked this book! At some points it was a bit cringy, but it wasn’t too bad. It felt kind of confusing and rushed between noah and maya sometimes, and it was hard to gauge where everyone’s feelings were at. I also wish the tension could have stayed with them as their relationship progressed and not just skipped to immediate comfort. Apart from that, I loved this. It was cool to read about a new type of sport that i’m not very familiar with. 

definitely reread material ✅
