Being the first female Formula 1 driver in the sport’s history is like being struck by lightning. Powerful, electrifying, and dangerous. Don’t get me wrong, it’s incredible. Plenty of racing fans are celebrating. Plenty more are enraged, hoping I either quit or crash.

They can hope all they want. I’ll never quit.

But there’s more than Formula 1 fans to worry about. Like shaking hands with my Team Principal for the first time and his scent turning my entire world upside down. Like the rest of his pack—including the current Formula 1 champion—matching with me too. One breath, and we belong to each other, body and soul.

In their arms I’m more than just a racer. I’m an Omega. I’m safe with them. For the first time, I can be what my designation craves instead of what my sport demands. Soft, spoiled, pleasured, and loved. Their fierce desire to win is only matched by one thing—their passion for me.

But the rookie Omega in a pack with her boss, the champion, and her crew is a PR disaster of global proportions, and I won’t be the only one with a target on my back. If the five us want to make it through the racing season? No one can ever know.

Just Drive:

I received a copy of Just Drive by Devyn Sinclair for review in exchange for an honest review. This has in no way influenced my thoughts and feelings about the book.

So, I’m a massive F1 fan. Add to that an omegaverse with a female driver and a why choose, yer I was gone from the start. I think this is one of my favourite Devyn Sinclair books to date. I was hooked, and I could not stop reading.

Just Drive follows Vanessa, who is about to become the first female F1 driver to have a full seat. She is so ready for it; it’s all she has ever wanted, but Vanessa also knows that it’s not going to be an easy ride. What she doesn’t expect is that her new Team Principal is one of scent matches. And he just happens to have a pack. And things are about to get a whole lot more interesting. Especially since one of the pack members just so happens to be another driver.

From the start, I knew I was going to love this book. I had everything that I loved, and as I kept on reading, I just kept on wanting more. Being an omega, Vanessa has found it a little tough, but being a female driver is, I would say, a little harder. In a male-dominated sport, Vanessa really has to stand her ground and has to show everyone that she can drive with the best. Because she is, I adored Vanessa as the FMC. She is strong and tough, but she also has these emotions that pulled at my heart.

Now, let’s get into her pack. First, we have Team Principal Grayson and the leader of the pack. He falls for Vanessa so quickly, I loved it. This manly man just crumbles for her. Yes please. River is the current F1 world champion and is racing for another team. His always had a little crush on Vanessa, so this is like Christmas for him. Then we have Beck, who is her Race Engineer and who has a smooth voice. The last one to round up this pack is Elias, Mechanic for the team and oh so sweet. The only Beta of the back, but he falls for Vanessa all the same.

I adored the romance in Just Drive. It’s that perfect combination of being sweet and steamy. Each man helped Vanessa and was there for her in different ways. And together, they are the perfect team. I do wish the start was a little slower. Maybe if they wait just a few more days. I feel like they jumped into it a little too quickly. Other than that, I loved the romance a lot, I think this has to be one of the hottest of Devyn Sinclair’s books I’ve read!

There were parts of this book that were intense, and I loved it. We were left enough bread crumbs to figure out what was happening, and it was satisfying when things started to come together. The romantic suspense elements of Just Drive weren’t the focus, but they drove the book along and were a nice touch.

I really enjoyed the F1 elements of this book a lot. It was all pretty accurate, there was enough in it that there was driving, and all the behind-the-scenes stuff wasn’t glossed over. It wasn’t just the glitz and the glamour. We were able to see all the hard work as well. I’ve read a few F1 romances now, and this has to be one of my favourites.

Overall, I loved Just Drive. It was hot and steamy but also sweet and felt like a warm hug. It was full of emotional and amazing representations of women in fields that are heavily male-dominated. If you are looking for a new omegaverse that is a little different plus has an empowering female lead, a found family and a little romantic suspense, then pick Just Drive up. You will not be disappointed.
