They started off on the wrong foot, and they still can't seem to get on the right foot either. ☆▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎••••▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎••••▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎••••☆ Echo thinks she's a smart girl, and to be fair, she is. She's built her life brick by brick: solid career, inspiring mission, and an amazing boyfriend. Everything is in its proper place. But one stupid accident throws her neatly planned world off balance, and in came Stanley. She already has a boyfriend, and Stanley makes her question morality stance, and she thought she knew about herself. Stanley has never been one for straight lines. He loves the laws of physics, but to him, life isn't a formula. It's a grand experiment. When Echo walks in, steady, principled, and taken. She's everything he shouldn't want, and yet, he can't look away. She has a boyfriend. Yet he wants her. Now he can't tell if he's the bad guy or someone who just doesn't play by the rules.

Amara "Mara" Blackwood is sweet, soft, and quietly navigating life, never imagining that her brother's best friend, Luca Vale tattooed, protective, and dangerously irresistible would become the one she can't stop thinking about. Their connection is forbidden, electrifying, and impossible to ignore, forcing Mara to confront her insecurities and Luca to decide how far he'll go for the one heart he's been secretly guarding.

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 pushes his way into her business. She's reckless and fast, fueled by the flames and the wanting 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 test drives and engine-fixes 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.
