3.75 stars. This was pretty good. I liked it overall but if I'm being honest with myself, I didn't really like this book until the last about 140/50 pages. Other than the last portion of the book I really had a problem getting into it. I hated Noah for most of the book but I did feel bad for him when it came to his dad. He was so full of himself which I don't find attractive at all. The audacity he had times man. Other than that I hated him until he redeemed himself with Maya. After that I liked him. Maya was sweet but she fell a bit flat for me. I'm not saying main character need a huge struggle but it just seems like stuff came really easy for her and she was just kind of there. I feel like she needed something.I also decided to look up F1 Racing since I never heard of it before and needed a visual lol so that was fun. I am excited to keep reading the rest of this series though. Liam and Sophie's appearances has me excited for the next book! I can't wait to read the rest of the series.
