The Book

Five years ago, he broke her heart. Now, he’s her new boss.

Rosie Jackson’s life is imploding. In the span of one disastrous week, her dream career goes up in smoke, and she finds herself working for her famous Formula 1 driver brother

Correction: working for her brother’s manager.

Theo Romano.

Satan Junior.

Former love of her life, and current bane of her existence.

It’s fine. Totally fine. All Rosie has to do is keep her head down, work hard, and ignore his smouldering looks, thoughtful gestures, and the way he keeps saying ‘hear me out’ in that too-soft voice that makes her resolve wobble.

Because the last time Rosie let Theo in, he shattered her. And she’s still trying to put herself back together.

Letting Theo Romano back into her life—back into her heart—is absolutely not an option.

…Right?

The Author

Belinda Mary is a long-time lover of all the books and has dreamed of being a writer her whole life. Since picking up her first Judy Blume novel at the age of ten, she has been happily lost in the world of fiction, and ask anyone around her, when she has a book to read, she turns into a very unproductive member of society.

After studying for ten years and obtaining her PhD in molecular biology, she pursued a career in the healthcare industry, and has recently taken the leap to make her lifelong dream of writing and publishing a novel come true. And when she is not looking after her two kids, her husband of eleven years and her crazy spoodle, she can be found on the couch reading, watching all things Bravo TV, or listening to true crime podcasts.

Belinda writes the kind of stories that she loves to read; filled with laughs, longing and love.

Book Review

Simply put, this one was unexpected... in the very best way possible. From the start, the enemy vibes were absolute perfection... the banter was so good and the disdain Rosie had towards Theo was clear. And then we jump back to their first meeting and that first night that really seemed like fate. Their chemistry was jumping off the pages, and I found myself intrigued to know what had happened between them to get them to that point. The dual timeline kept me at the edge of my seat, and when we finally do discover what went down between them... oh my heart! I really didn't expect this one to be so emotional, and while it certainly had all those great romantic comedy moments too, it also brought me to tears, feeling the heartbreak between them. Of course, this only had me rooting for their second chance all that much more. Truly, I won't give anything away, but these two... my goodness, they absolutely had my heart! I've enjoyed every book in this series so far, but this one is certainly a new favorite for me. If you enjoy F1 romance and a good second chance at love, this is one not to be missed.

Away From Her is a closed-door romance with kisses only and some innuendo/language throughout. It is the third book in the Beyond the Grid series, and while you may see some familiar characters, I think this could be enjoyed as a standalone as well.
