Love at Full Throttle: A Sweet Instalove Formula One RomCom Short Read

When a quiet librarian meets a rising Formula One superstar, their chemistry accelerates from zero to heart-pounding in seconds flat.

Rachel:

As head librarian of Blue Ridge Public Library, I'm used to living life in the slow lane—surrounded by books, historical archives, and my aptly named cat, Solitude. Public speaking? Not my thing. Being the center of attention? Definitely not my thing.

So when I'm "volunteered" to give a VIP tour to a Formula One team during our annual Grand Prix, I'm ready to throw up like I did during my ninth-grade debate debacle.

Yet here I am, standing face-to-face with Theodore "T-Rex" Reyes, the rookie sensation taking the racing world by storm. With his swept-back dark hair, chocolate eyes that crinkle when he smiles, and an accent that makes my name sound exotic, he's even more devastating in person than on those posters plastered all over town.

Between vintage Mustang tours, motorcycle rides to hidden waterfalls, and an unexpected night under the stars, our chemistry is undeniable. But when his team locks him down before the big race, I'm left wondering if what's growing between us is just a Blue Ridge pit stop on his fast track to fame.

Now he's hinting at a future that seems too good to be true—one that might include trading in his globe-trotting lifestyle for a permanent spot in my small mountain town.

Can I trust that a man with a killer dinosaur nickname and who lives life at full throttle is ready to put down roots? Or will our whirlwind romance crash and burn when the checkered flag falls and real life comes calling?

Trigger warnings: This short read romance is full of hot kissing, stargazing, life in the fast lane, and sexy accents, witty banter, using a tablecloth for a blanket, grumpy cats, racing hearts (and cars!), and body positivity from a plus-sized heroine. Read at your own pleasure!
