With a tarnished reputation and an undetermined future in F1 that hangs by a terribly loose thread, he can’t afford to lose his seat. Thiago is ready to do anything to redeem himself and erase his past mistakes. When a mysterious woman intrudes on his private party in Monte Carlo, he is certain the universe has brought his polar opposite into his life as salvation. He is sunshine, she is moonlight; he is a bright star and she is a moonbeam. Destiny takes the wheel, steering Kamari into Thiago’s orbit, but her open disdain and closely guarded heart warn her to stay away. Enchanted by her charms, Thiago is intent on melting her freezing barriers and tearing down the walls shielding her heart. When Kamari agrees to help him save his future by being his fake girlfriend, the unexpected happens, triggered by a game of lies, secrets and desire. As they plunge towards the finish line, the race veers offtrack and neither of them are ready to fall off the cliff.

debut novel? damn i want to write like that, a beautiful book!! let's get the "bad" things out of the way first just because it's more personal liking and preference than really bad or wtv, wish there was more "development" before the "I love yous" tho please their banter and connection wad really good not that just wish there was more time period between them you know? also hm there was a scene or two that we don't actually read about/see it, but the characters tell the reader and im not the biggest fan of to be honest just, show me the scene. show me the characters living the scene or the other character seeing what happened, don't go straight to the "aftermath"of it! again just personal stuff because this book oh my, i don't have words to describe ophow much i love them, how much thiago was so down bad for kamari or how he treated her, how kamari with all that black cat attitude still was soft for thiago, how protected of each other they were, just so magical!!
everytime thiago opened his mouth i swear i just felt so many butterflies ugh. loved seeing kamari finally leaning toward someone and started to trust more and finally opening her heart, and also finding someone who truly sees her and helps her and challenges her and loves her so fearlessly, beautiful! then thiago finally having someone to talk to, to be right by his side no matter what! but seriously this man gosh i just need a thiago valencia on my life, please!!
overall. this debut freaking novel stole my heart, beautiful strong writing, powerful, unique and complex characters who finally have their happy ever after, just so good and i do hope everyone likes it this much as me. maybe not a top read but definitely won't stop recommend and god kamari and thiago's chemistry and banter and connection definitely is one of my faves ever so so happy, thiago also being ruthless and deadly at the races but such a damn gentleman and so golden retriever energy with kamari seriously damn and kamari being so hardworking and with a black cat energy, like a little grumpy tbh (i love her what a boss what a woman she's mothering period!!) but being soft and so carefree with thiago, they truly bring the best versions of themselves together, just amazing!!
please read it and fall in love with them, tho f1 is the sport and kinda focus of thiago in the book, it was so much more than that and i kinda miss f1 now haha, but read it!!
