There is SOMETHING about a sunshine girl and a sunshine boy that makes my heart so HAPPY!! And this was PERFECT! I’m in F1 romance era right now!!  And I HOPE this is just the beginning for these characters! Everything about Dev and Willow was perfect! The brothers best friend so we can’t ever act in our feelings which then turns everything into a poorly kept secret since they both have literal hearts in their eyes?! The forced proximity, the slow burn, the caretaking, the fact that she falls first but he falls SO MUCH HARDER?! I loved it all so much!

I love Willow with my WHOLE HEART. She’s just a girl who loves sports but isn’t able to fulfill her dreams the ways she wants because of her chronic illness but finds a way to make it happen!! I also love the way she loves Dev. She knows the real him, who he was before F1 and the way she works to make sure everyone can see that side of him because he deserves it!! 

And DEV. He is THE SWEETEST! I love his love of Bollywood movies and that’s why he wants to shoot from the rooftop that he loves Willow?? And the way he loves Willow?? The way he makes her feel so seen!? And taken care of? The way he conducts himself at work where he’s treated poorly?? When he could just act up?? It was tough watching him struggle at work, but watching him get everything he deserves at the end was so good!

The epilogue was long!! And i LOVED it!! It was a little fast paced but I really loved the last minute wrap up!! And the VERY end was my favorite! I can’t wait for what’s next from Simone!!

Thank you to Berkley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review!!
