Author
Karen Booth is a mid-western girl now living in the south. She was raised on 80’s music and constant re-reads of Judy Bloom’s Forever. Karen is an incredible author of steamy contemporary romance and women’s fiction. When she’s not writing these amazing character’s she’s listening to music with her kids, perfecting her southern cooking skills, or sweet-talking her supportive husband into making delicious cocktails.
Plot
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 with a naughty, cute Lab?
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, watch racing live, and caring for a dog she already adores. All while escaping the wedding planning that’s put her failures front and centre. 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.
My Review
I read the first book in this series, Not So Fast, last year and loved it. When I found out there was going to be a second book in the series I’ve been waiting for it ever since. Not So Fast was actually my introduction to Formula 1 romance books and I loved that book and this one just as much. I’ve read quite a few books with a parent and nanny as the main characters but this is my first dog parent and dog nanny book. I thought it was such a fun concept and done really well. Piper was such a fun character to root for and so easy to love. Emilio was very misunderstood but underneath it all he was so caring and loving. I loved the slow-burn tension between them and how their relationship developed. Overall, I really enjoyed this book and the audio version was very good. I rate this book 4/5 stars and recommend it to anyone who likes forced proximity, grumpy/sunshine, and Formula 1 romances.
And that’s the end of my Too Fast To Fall by Karen Booth book review. If you read this book let me know in the comments and if you loved it as much as I did. If you’re looking for other books to read check out these reviews: In Her Own League, Face Off, and Rules For The Summer.
