Description
But maybe it’s love at first lap dog?
Yesterday, Piper Murphy was just another dog sitter helping her sister with wedding prep while pretending she’s over her own broken engagement.
Today, she’s the fill-in dog sitter for Formula One driver Emilio Baquero. Brooding, gorgeous driver + naughty, cute Lab? Woof, down boy.
When Emilio offers her a five-week gig as his live-in dog nanny in London, Piper can’t help but say yes. It’s out of her comfort zone, sure, but it’s also a ticket to travel, racing, and caring for a dog she already adores. All while escaping the wedding planning that’s put her failures front and center.
Only being under the same roof means there’s no escaping Emilio’s intensity, or grumpiness. Piper tries to be a sunny presence, but their clashes just fuel the slow-burn tension to something near combustible.
Because falling for your boss is risky when you have a broken heart. Falling for your famous boss and his adorable dog? That’s a crash waiting to happen.
Too Fast to Fall is part of the Fast Track series from Karen Booth. Don't miss the first book, Not So Fast.

I loved this book so much!!! It was spicy & fast paced and amazing.
It fits a lot of tropes:
*forced proximity
*grumpy/sunshine
*boss/employee
*sports romance
I love the characters & Piper and Emliio's story!! I haven't read any other books by this author & I look forward to rectifying that!
This is book 2 in the Fast Track series. I have not read Book 1 (yet!), but this an interconnected standalone, so I didn't have a hard time following along.
Thanks to the author (Karen Booth), publisher (Afterglow books by Harlequin) & Netgalley for the ARC read. All opinions are my own.

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for an eARC in exchange for an honest review.
This book is for all the F1 girlies that are new to the sport and have been looking for a book that has a POV from the bestest dog to ever be.
Piper Murphy is a dog sitter that has the opportunity of a lifetime dog sitting for Emilio, a F1 driver and travel with the team. Emilio is a grumpy, intense driver whereas Piper is the bubbly sunshine who loves dogs.
Too Fast to Fall is fast paced, action filled and has laugh out loud moments throughout. I thoroughly enjoyed Gus's POV, it added a unique side to the story and I would easily read a whole book from Gus.
As a F1 fan, you can tell that the author had taken the time to research the sport. I did not realise she had written a previous F1 book and I have no added it to my TBR!
