Upgraded by Abby Millsaps is now live!
If your ex canât get you across the finish line, his dad probably canâŚ
Iâve always been âtoo much.â
Too sensitive. Too picky. Too clumsy. Too dramatic.
As a result, Iâve mastered the art of masking.
But that doesnât stop Alaric Steele from truly seeing me when he finds me flat on my back in his driveway, mid-meltdown.
As Team Principal of Granata Racing, Alaric is control personified. Heâs almost twenty years older than me and happens to be my ex-boyfriendâs dad.
Out of desperation, I accept a new job with Granata.
Which means Alaric is also my new boss.
The most surprising part of my role working in Formula 1 isnât the intense travel schedule or the fear of seeing my ex around the paddock: itâs navigating the surprise encounters and secret rendezvous that launch Alaric and I into a high-speed forbidden romance neither one of us ever saw coming.
But with Alaricâs career on the line, and my fear of being too much growing louder by the day, is the risk of crashing and burning worth falling for my ex-boyfriendâs dad?

Upgraded is book one in Away We Go, a brand new series of interconnected standalone Formula 1 romances from USA Today bestselling author Abby Millsaps.

đReviewđ
Evangeline has done everything she could for her boyfriend only to find out he wasnât worth the effort and she is left to pick up the pieces. The last person that she expected to be there for her was Alaric, her exâs father, who not only offers her a job but shows her, even though she doesnât believe it because of being on the spectrum, that she is perfect just the way she is.
Alaric manages the Granata racing team and is there for Evangeline after what she went through because of his son. There are multiple reasons that they shouldnât be together between the age gap, the fact that he is her boss and that she is his sonâs ex however even those arenât enough to derail a love that is meant to be.
You canât help but feel for what Evangeline has been through and the emotional toll it has taken on her however Alaric sees the beautiful woman she is, both inside and out, and her being on the spectrum is part of what makes her so special. The way that he loves and appreciates her is everything you could want and more.
