Really enjoyed this story. It was really different, I loved their relationship, how they looked out for one another.
My one complaint is it ended too abruptly, the story needed some more resolution or an epilogue.

Wreckless by Katie Golding was my first book by the author and a great romance story.
I’m always up for a good enemies to lovers and contemporary romance and this story checked all my boxes.
The banter was so good that either had me laughing out loud or cheering either of them and the chemistry was there from the beginning to end.
While plays a dangerous game and tries to save his heart from heartbreak, he also realises that actually Loraine is his first and the last love of his life and the person who deserves his thrust more than anything. He does take his sweet time to do so but it’s understandable and it worked well in here.
Loraine is probably my first heroine that I’ve read about being a motorcycle racer and I just loved her. Her caring persona really touched me and the dynamics with her family was so spot on and always put a smile on my face.
I’m surely looking forward to read more by the author now.

I give 4 super fast stars to Massimo and Lorelai. I absolutely could not put this book down. Between the races and off-the-track drama - I couldn't look away. This is an enemies to lovers book and it is definitely all the good things about that trope and none of the bad.

Lorelai is a serious racing diva. She is 100% focused on racing and winning - nothing else is going to come between her and the outcomes she wants. Massimo is the same - except that he has also been in love with Lorelai since he was 15. He's been approaching it very oddly - but that love has been there. He also recognizes Lorelai not just as his love - but as the champion she is. He wants every step they take to be her choice - and doesn't want anything in his life to impact those choices. Their relationship is fiery and complex and wonderful.

I know zippo about motorcycle racing - but this book kind of made me want to go watch some. And I read the results tables at the start of each chapter like it was my JOB! I even followed some of the other racers pretty closely to see what happened to them.

One of my all-time-favorite sports romances is Heated Rivalry by Rachel Reid and this book had very similar vibes (just straight romance vibes) - but similar.

<Spoiler> At the end I actually got up and walked away from my e-reader - because I was terrified the author was going to leave us on a relationship cliffhanger. Thank the Lord she didn't. Though - I could scream not knowing the outcome of the final race. I also had mixed emotions about Lorelai leaving Pro Moto to go to
women's moto. Its awesome that they will have a specialized league (?) but I loved that she competed and BEAT the men she was racing against. The sexist behavior of the guys notwithstanding - I kind of felt like leaving to go to a different league (even though it was her choice and not her sponsors) didn't feel right.
Maybe some of the things left open here - will be resolved in another book. I am anxious to know whether Billy keeps competing and what happens with Mason.</spoiler>

I highly recommend. Katie Golding - please write more books in this series. Pretty please. Don't make me as 12 times like Massimo.

I received this book as an ARC from NetGalley, but these opinions are all my own.

I really liked this book. It was an angsty enemy to lovers with low heat. Though I prefer my enemy to lovers to be that little bit more vicious, I mostly liked the development of Lorelai's and Massimos's relationship. However, I will say that Massimo sometimes felt like a caricature of an Italian man, and that's a shame. And I really disliked that he slept with his best friend (an on-and-off kind of thing) , was roommates with her, and expected Lorelai to just accept it (she did.). I also think they could have communicated better, a lot of their problems issued from Massimo not actually talking to Lorelai, and both characters talking could have made for a better book without losing any of the angst. They would talk to his best friends (yeah, the one he used to sleep with), but not amongst each other, like, what? Anyway, I wanted an epilogue.

3.8 stars.
