His eyes were black just like I had thought, only they weren't full of desire or wonder anymore. Ares eyes weren't full of anything, they looked cold and impassive. He looked like he was being shown a book or a vase not the woman he was meant to marry. I turned my gaze from his and looked back at the table, I couldn't imagine only two days before I was straddling him and running him up thousands of pounds. I knew when he heard my name something changed in his expression. I had thought it was confusion but I see now it was recognition. If I had known who he was, if I had known that walking into that stupid club would mean I would be sat here opposite Ares Hernandez, heir to the Spanish mob wearing a million pound engagement ring I would have stayed home. But it was too late now. The deal was struck and the contract signed. I was stuck with him until I took my last breath. Or until he took his and if I had anything to do with it I'd make sure that would happen before the year was over.

She hated help from the police, mechanics, or anyone that will try and tear her down. Especially not an unwanted billionaire that wears a RBF who pushes his way into her business. She's reckless and fast, fueled by the flames and the want to push her limit of speed. But when a narrow escape and a wrecked car threatens her career forever, Enzo Mendez, a former street racer and tech empire heir, makes an offer with her that she desperately needs: connections, coaching, and the tools to keep her life in one piece entirely. She's stubborn, he's infuriating. And something between the late night arguments and power battle feels too much like foreplay, finding themselves toeing the line they swore they wouldn't cross. Their ride to love is never smooth, between their rivalries, unburied secrets, and personal reputations collide with her want to be together, they have to decide if it's worth racing for... or if it's better just to leave it in the dust.

Cameron has always been "the little sister" in everyone's eyes especially to Chase, her brother's ridiculously good-looking best friend who practically grew up in their house. He used to tease her, ruffle her hair, and treat her like she was ten years old, even when she was seventeen. But years later, Cameron returns to her hometown for a fresh start after a rough breakup, and Chase Bennett isn't just her brother's friend anymore - he's now the co-owner of the town's most popular bar, confident, annoyingly protective, and way too good at remembering the little things about her. A temporary arrangement puts Cameron working at the bar to get back on her feet... meaning she's seeing Chase almost every day. There's tension in the way they trade barbs, an electricity when their hands brush while pouring drinks, and a look in his eyes that says he's noticing she's not so little anymore. The problem? Her brother is fiercely protective and is currently going through issues with his own work, meaning he's travelling more then usual - making Chase promise to "watch out for Cameron" while he's out of town. That promise doesn't exactly cover the nights they close the bar together, the quiet talks in the stockroom, or the slow, torturous moments where neither can seem to step away. When her brother returns earlier than planned and catches wind of something, Cameron and Chase have to face the fallout-and decide whether they're willing to risk the friendship that started it all for a love that might be worth every broken rule.
