Olyverra Carter is a frustrated journalist who's spent five years working and stuck behind the scenes, never given her own byline. So when her sharp, calculating boss Whitney finally offers her a story-her first solo feature-she thinks her big break has finally come. The catch? The story is about Nikola Vaughn, a mysterious, up-and-coming NASCAR driver with a reputation built on silence. He's never given an interview, he's barely present online, and he completely disappeared from the racing scene after turning 18-only to suddenly reappear seven years later with his eyes set on the NASCAR Cup Series. Bound by a strict NDA and forced to submit her article for legal review, Olyverra quickly realizes this is no ordinary puff piece. With no real information to go on, no photos, and no access-she's flying blind. That is, until Nikola himself calls and suggests a week-long shadowing experience, offering her the chance to step into his world firsthand. As she prepares to enter the high-octane world of racing, Olyverra finds herself battling not just deadlines and expectations-but a deepening curiosity about Nikola's hidden past, and an unexpected tension between them that could either derail everything... or launch her career into the stratosphere. But what happens when they spend an intense night together that leaves them bound to each other for life? Will Nikola ever open up? Will he step-up where he's needed or continue to live his fast life, leaving Olyverra with the responsibility all on her own.

This isn't a linear story. This will be a collection of moments, set in different timelines, imagined versions of them - sometimes they're strangers, sometimes they're exes, sometimes they're something in between. One thing stays the same: They always find their way to each other. Welcome to the Nicolandria Multiverse.

From the creator of Kiss & Tell -- After a devastating crash, pro racer Nicolas Vansteenbergh is forced to return home to Miami, bruised, benched, and bitter. He does not expect to get dragged back into the city's underground racing circuit--the very place that made him a legend. And he definitely doesn't expect to see *her* again. -- Also available on ao3 TW: This is an angst-driven story. It explores violence, underground crime, racing injuries, betrayal, emotional manipulation, and toxic relationships shaped by trauma. My characters are incredibly flawed and make harmful choices. THIS IS A FANFICTION--I do not know the real cast members or claim to know their lives, please do not grow invasive and try to pin this to the real people. Please read with care :)

Nic and Olandria decided to go back to the villa as a couple. Will they let themselves free fall into each other?

Nic had her backed against the wall without meaning to, every inch between them a battlefield. His hands flexed uselessly at his sides, wanting-needing-to touch, but not daring. The closeness was a slow burn, the kind that took him apart molecule by molecule. She tilted her chin up, eyes searching his, and he thought, if she leans in even a fraction, I'm gone. ✿ ✿ ✿ ✿ ✿ ✿ Olandria came to Love Island for exactly what the name promised - love. The villa is sun-soaked and electric, full of new faces and endless possibility. And then there's Nic: quiet confidence, steady charm, and a gaze that feels just a little too knowing. Every challenge, laugh, and stolen glance adds another layer to the pull between them. In a place where nothing stays simple for long, Olandria must navigate the sparks, the first impressions that won't fade, and the question that drives every Islander: who is worth the risk?

Olandria likes what she has with Taylor, but she feels like she's missing something. Maybe Nic can help her figure it out. (Nicolandria fanfic bc I am a writer with freewill. Also available on ao3 :p)
