Romantic tension between ex–best friends rockets to new heights in this dazzling sports romance debut set in the fast-paced, interplanetary world of Formula Zero racing.
Madeline Clarke didn't think her life would be all fun and trophies after earning her spot in the solar system's most elite zero-gravity racing circuit, but she definitely thought it'd be better than this. Aside from being a female pilot in a male-dominated sport, her boss is a controlling jerk, her estranged father is a beloved figure from her team's past glory days (and an absolute ass), and she's performing so poorly she risks losing her contract. And worst of all, there's Julian Casperi.
Julian was Clarke's childhood best friend and is a rising star in the league. The dance between them has always been complicated, but when Clarke walked away from her feelings years ago and Julian didn’t stop her they became nothing more than competitors—until Clarke gets into a near-fatal accident on the track and Julian comes to her rescue.
Now back in each other’s orbits, the tension between them is at an all-time high. But navigating their relationship might be the least of Clarke’s problems. Things keep going wrong on the track, and she suspects there's something shady at play. If she wants to come out on top, she needs to move fast and make bold choices—about her team, her future, and her heart.
Meredith Lanzen is an adult sci-fi and fantasy author. When she's not charting out intergalactic adventures on her kitchen window, she's playing D&D, braving her fear of spiders to spend time outside, and singing show tunes loudly enough to have acquired a neighborhood nickname. She lives in Michigan with her husband, two chaos goblins cleverly disguised as human children, and a 65-pound lapdog.

“Move over, Formula One. Formula Zero is my new favorite sport. With fantastic world building (seriously, I want to live in this fantastic universe) and a swoon-worthy romance, Formula Zero is a triumph of a sports romance. Lanzen’s voice is engaging and witty, with a true knack for explaining a complicated sport in a way that made me feel like an expert by the end. Clarke’s struggles with grief and the trajectory of her career were incredibly relatable, and the sheer yearning from Julian was unparalleled. This book was absolutely out-of-this-world levels of fun—an intergalactic delight!”—Simone Solani, USA Today bestselling author of Ride With Me
"Formula Zero will send you on a full-throttle, zero-gravity ride from start to finish. This is sci-fi romance the way it's meant to be—fast-paced, full of intrigue, and with the payoff only a perfect slow burn brings. I couldn't put it down! Everyone should add Meredith Lanzen to their auto-buy author list."—Alexandra Kennington, author of Blood Beneath the Snow
