Samantha Whitmore was born to race. Her father taught her everything-how to read the road, push limits, and live with the fire in her veins. But after her parents died in a tragic car accident, she left that life behind. The girl who once ruled the streets disappeared with them. Now, three years later, her brother Landon overprotective and watches her every move. She's just trying to live a normal life...until her reckless friends drag her back into the world she ran from, placing a bet in her name. The challenge? Race Nate Sinclair-her brother's best friend, and the undefeated, untouchable street racing legend. She agrees to one race. Just one. But nothing about Nate is simple. The more time they spend together, the more the past creeps in. Nate knows things about that night-about her-that he's not saying. And the deeper Sam digs, the more she realizes the truth she's been avoiding might destroy everything... including the growing connection between them. He races with secrets. She races with scars. When the past catches up, will they survive the crash?

[Book #3 in the Nystrom series] [TW: mature content, heavy topics, language] "You hate me." He states, sounding almost ridiculous. I shake my head. "I don't." A grin tugs at his mouth, he takes a step closer. "You like me then." I feel my heart race, the same way it has always done for him. "No." "You love me?" Another question, another lie, another step closer. "Definitely not." "Liar." In a split second his hands are on my waist. My heart not getting a chance to recover because now his lips are on mine. 𓆩♡𓆪 𝐈𝐋𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐀 𝐋𝐔𝐃𝐎𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐎, the innocent angel. Or so they thought. She was someone you'd want to worship, not knowing whether you were worshipping a goddess or someone far worse than the devil himself. Yet in the middle of her chaos, there was him - he was her anchor, but unfortunately for her, she was drowning. 𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐎 T̶H̶O̶R̶N̶B̶R̶I̶D̶G̶E̶ 𝐀𝐌𝐁𝐑𝐎𝐒𝐄, the abomination that shouldn't have been born. He had never cared about anything or anybody, until her. Her heart was the only thing he wanted to hold, her name the only language he knew, her existence woven into his veins. She was like a knife, and he was ready to bleed. They promised friendship, nothing more-but hearts are liars, and so were they. 𓆩♡𓆪 Started: August 2024 Finished: TBA

At Whitmore University, only the rich, the brilliant, and the dangerous survive. Ryan Shaffer is none of the above. She's here on scholarship, laser-focused, and more interested in staying at the top of the class than making friends. So when the class rankings drop and she sees her name in second place, she's not shocked. What shocks her... is who's in first. Carter Grayson. She's never seen him in a single lecture. Never heard his name. And yet there he is, one spot above her. Infuriatingly smug. Maddeningly attractive. And worst of all? Unbothered. Carter is everything Ryan can't stand: reckless, flirtatious, filthy rich-and somehow, smarter than her. But the deeper she digs, the more the mystery unravels. Because Carter Grayson has secrets no one talks about. And Ryan? She might be the only one bold (or stupid) enough to challenge him. At Whitmore, power is inherited, not earned. But Ryan's done playing by their rules. --- His lips were inches away from my ear and the heat from his breath sent my body into complete shock. "I'm an asshole," he said, almost breathless. I wanted to agree because wherever that admission came from it was the truth. "I only know how to hurt people," he said again. More feverishly this time. "You're worse," I claimed. "Than an asshole. You're worse." "I know," he mumbled. Pain etched in his face. "Why the unexpected confession?" "Cause you were right," he said, leaning back - severing the connection before it had even formed. "I'm not worth it."
