The Grid

Formula 1 has been my dream ever since I saw my first race and was captivated by a driver with pride shining in his green eyes as he held his trophy high. Eight years later, I got my chance to make it a reality. It's a dream come true, except... The same driver who ignited my love for racing, who I idolized through my youth, and whose posters currently line my bedroom walls... is my new teammate.

For years I've been the golden boy—a perfect son and older brother, a best friend, one of the top drivers on the grid, and a father to the world's most amazing kid. It's everything I thought I'd ever need. Until her. They say you get one great love in your lifetime, but what do the rules say about experiencing it twice with the same person? I had her once. I thought I lost her forever. Now she's back and I'll do everything I can to keep her.

For years I've prided myself on my unwavering self control. Secure in my ability to keep my thoughts and focus where they were supposed to be—not on my best friend's little sister. But everything changes when I let my demons out to play in order to keep her safe. Now with the news of my actions spreading like wildfire, I stand to lose everything I've worked for. Until a promise is made and a deal is struck. Finally, something I've always wanted but never thought I was worthy enough to have is within reach. She's mine. Even if it's supposed to be fake.
