Read this if you:
· love a forbidden romance
· would follow a love interest around the world

Synopsis:
When Maya decides to follow her Formula 1 driver brother around the world for the season, her plan is to document everything and build a following for her YouTube channel. What she doesn’t expect is her instant attraction to Noah Slade, her brother’s teammate and nemesis on and off the track.
My Thoughts on the Book:
The first book in the Dirty Air series and it was everything I hoped for! The drivers are all as douche-y as I imagine they would be and the thrill of race day was so perfectly captured.
I absolutely loved Noah and Maya and their chemistry was off the charts. I also thought it was so great that there were some heavier topics in this book with Noah’s relationship with his parents. My only complaint about this book is the ending. There were too many long-winded speeches from so many characters and they all felt forced & unnatural and so out of the norm for what we had seen from them throughout the book.
All of the other side characters were so funny as well, I can’t wait to continue this series and watch their stories unfold!
