A forbidden romance and a career-defining comeback collide in Shifting Gears, a slow-burn, brother's best friend Formula 1 romance from J. K. MacLaren, author of Full Throttle.
When Sebastian "Baz" Moreno joins the Formula 1 big leagues, the last thing he expects is to crash out during his opening race and sustain a career-threatening knee injury. Determined to battle his way back on track, he turns to the only person who can help him: Rosaline Marchmont, a talented physiotherapist who just happens to be the little sister of his two best friends. But Baz's wounds run further than skin-deep, and he must confront the demons that have plagued him since his parents' car accident. With a trophy on the line, Baz struggles to let go of the fear that driving will claim the lives of more people that he loves - which is no easy feat when a mystery person keeps sabotaging drivers' cars...
