Head Over Wheels
BLURB
Love is an endurance sport…
Recovering from a bad crash and a broken heart, Australian road cycling star Lori Gallagher gets back into training with the help of a coaching app and an anonymous training partner she knows only by his avatar and his voice. But with her career dependent on regaining her fighting spirit, she ditches her online friend to focus on the road. Then she hears his voice - on her team training camp.
Sébastien Franck is stunned to discover his goofy training partner is 'Top Gun' Gallagher, the most ruthless rider in the women's peloton. She's already ghosted him online and, with his career on its last legs, he's sure she won't want anything to do with him. But Seb and Lori's online chemistry transfers seamlessly into real life and they sleep together - a no-strings opportunity to get it out of their systems before the start of the season.
Yet Lori's year begins with disaster, while Seb finds the best form of his career. As the Tour de France approaches, Seb expects himself to crack and let his team down. Lori is torn between family loyalty to her brother and her feelings for Seb - not to mention the complex dynamics of a sport where teamwork and individual achievement are sometimes at odds.
Now, she faces the mental fight of her how much is she willing to sacrifice for love - or to win?
REVIEW 4*
Head over wheels has a gorgeous cover and it’s a sports romance outside my normal read. I signed up for an ARC as this is an attending author of Rare. This book gave me You’ve got mail vibes.
Lori has been on the road cycling circuit for a while but after a break she needs something extra special to re boast her career. She turns to an app where she makes an anonymous ’friend’.
Once’s she’s back in the road she leaves the app without saying goodbye to the guy that got her through her tough spot.
Now she’s back on the circuit with her family where she meets Seb. There’s something so familiar about him, although they haven’t met before.
Head over wheels touches on metal health; worry and doubts. The characters have good chemistry and shows an insight into cycling. Hockey romance is my favourite and this cycling romance had a completely different vibe. Lori is the lead in the sport and she’s the one which the achievements. Seb is kind of a newbie. He’s struggling to find his feet and Lori is just what he needs.
