Formula Fling

Race Fever, Book 1

By: Sawyer Bennett

Narrated by: Sean Masters, Kit Swann

Welcome to Formula International, where legends are born and speed is king. From New York Times Bestselling Author Sawyer Bennett comes the Race Fever series, set within the fast-paced and dangerous world of formula racing.

Posey Evans is looking to take her career as a romance author to the next level, shifting from historical love stories to writing about the high stakes world of formula racing. Wanting to immerse herself in the sport, Posey manages to secure full access to the Crown Velocity Racing team by faking credentials as a journalist. When she’s granted unlimited face-to-face time with one of the teams’ best drivers, Posey is equal parts elated and terrified because while she’s getting exactly what she wants, she can’t afford to have her secret exposed.

Lex Hamilton lives for the thrill of being one of the fastest and most decorated race car drivers in the sport. When he’s behind the wheel, he’s focused on one thing and one thing only—earning top spot on the podium. But off the track? Let’s just say his extracurricular activities have put him on a very short leash with the team management at Crown Velocity. He’s cocky, handsome, dripping with swagger, and not super happy to have what he considers a babysitter following his every move. Lex’s unwillingness to help doesn’t deter Posey but when he uncovers her secret, they strike a deal—he won’t reveal her truth if she helps him stay out of trouble and keep his job.

While many women would swoon at his feet, Posey isn’t interested in anything more than Lex’s racing knowledge. Mostly. As the season inches closer and passions ignite, time at the track leads to time in the bed. Having agreed there is an expiration date on their arrangement, what started as an assignment has the potential to go the distance as their physical relationship builds into something deeper. But when her secret is revealed, will Lex and Posey’s relationship hit a wall, or will this fling find its way to the checkered flag?

Lex and Posey

A fun, exciting and delightful romance. Lex and Posey are cute together. I enjoyed how their friendship evolved into so much more then either of them expected. I enjoyed going on this electrifying ride with them.

Fabulous Formula for Romance

Sawyer Bennett is mastering a new sport in another fast action romance series. Formula Fling welcomes readers into the world of racing while weaving in such a natural love story. I’m revved up for more to come!

Interesting new sport

I enjoy the story as I do most Sawyer Bennett books. The only thing that bothered me throughout the book was the heroine's age of 23. That just feels so young, especially to be a writer of romance novels. And the fact that she had been writing them for three years just didn't seem to make sense. Basically she had published her first book at 20 and became successful in three years. I thought about it through the entire story, but the characters didn't feel 23 and 24. They did feel older. I also struggled with the fact that the hero went from a party boy to a relationship guy in essentially a day.

A new series

I enjoyed listening to this new series set in the Formula 1 racing world - with a name change. Posey is an historical romance author but wants to write a romance set in the racing world. She wants to write it with authentic information so she goes "undercover " as a sports writer to get the full immersion anonymously. Lex is a bad boy in the racing world and the team owner has given him one last chance to straighten up. She puts Posey with him to shadow him and keep him out of trouble. He's upset at first since Posey isn't his usual type of girl. He figures out her secret and says he'll help her if she'll help him. They become attracted to each other and start a no strings romance. What happens when the press finds out? I liked this story and I'm looking forward to the next book. The narration was good with both narrators doing different accents.

Disappointed

I am a Hugh fan of this author and have read all available books on audible. I was very hopeful with this new adventure but it just didn’t click with me. The book was fine. I had to start the book twice as it didn’t grab me the first time and I found I wasn’t eager to get back to the book AND I didn’t finish it. Stopped with an hour left, I wasn’t interested in how it would end. I’m sorry for the not so favorable review but thought readers should have a heads up and make their own conclusions

Delightful

The two actors reading this story were amazing. They captured and shared the emotions Posey and Lex were feeling. I enjoyed the laughter shared by these two. And just for fun, Harley is full of surprises.
