This Happy Wreck - by Sam Cameron (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

She's the Man meets F1 racing in this queer sports romance full of high-speed thrills, hilarious hijinks, and not one but two happily-ever-afters.

Ever since the crash that nearly killed him two years ago, F1 driver Sebastian has been terrified to get behind the wheel.

His twin sister Viola is desperate to drive. After losing her shot in the minors, she'd do anything to get back on the grid...including impersonating her brother in the driver's seat. One identity-swapped audition later, and she's won Sebastian a spot on Team Ilyria.

With Sebastian as the public face and Viola with her foot on the pedal, the siblings manage to raise their flagging team to the top of the podium.

But the two are winning more than just races--they're winning hearts. Sebastian falls for his fellow driver Duke Orsino Jr., and Viola for the team's chief development engineer, Liv. Except the switcheroo works a little too well, because Orsino and Liv keep getting the siblings confused. And the harder they fall, the bigger the risk of the siblings' secret coming to light.

As the World Championship draws nearer, Sebastian and Viola have a decision to make: Hit the brakes on their relationships to keep up the ruse, or come clean about who they really are and sacrifice their racing careers forever.

Is love more important than crossing the finish line? Or will it all end in a flaming wreck?
