A grumpy-sunshine Formula One romance with spice! When a star driver hires a new dog nanny, he gets an all-American girl who loves dogs, cars… and making him beg. For fans of Amanda Weaver, Simone Soltani, Lauren Asher, Hannah Grace, and Sarah Adams.

So what if she’s crushing on a race car driver? That doesn’t mean it’s love at first lap.
 
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 a spicy, fast-paced romance you can read in one sitting.
