In Formula 1, everything is measured in tenths. Wins. Losses. Mistakes. The space between holding on and losing control. Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri know exactly how thin that margin is. On track, they are teammates, rivals, and the two strongest weapons McLaren has in a title fight that demands everything from them. Off track, they are something far more dangerous: unfinished, unspoken, and already too deep in something neither of them knows how to survive cleanly. What begins as reckless chemistry becomes impossible to contain once it starts meaning more than either of them wants to admit. Because wanting is one thing. Letting it change you is another. And in a sport built on control, precision, and public image, there is no room for the kind of feelings that throw everything off balance. But distance doesn't fix it. Winning doesn't drown it out. And every race weekend forces them back into the same rooms, the same silences, the same impossible choice between protecting themselves and giving in. Because when everything is measured in tenths, it doesn't take much to ruin a life. Or fall in love.

Lando Norris only had to survive one wedding. Instead, he woke up in Vegas... married to Oscar Piastri. His rival. His problem. His husband. What started as tequila-fueled chaos and a stupid bet is now very real-and very public. With no easy way out, they're forced to fake their way through a marriage neither of them wanted. But between the bickering, the tension, and a few too many almost moments... Pretending starts to feel a little too real.

Lando Norris thought ending it would fix the problem. Instead, it made everything worse. What started as something reckless and physical between him and Oscar Piastri has become impossible to contain. Because the real danger was never sex. It was what came after - the wanting, the silence, the way neither of them can seem to pull away without making it hurt more. Now they're trapped in the same garages, the same media rooms, the same race weekends, forced to stand beside each other and pretend none of it means anything. Oscar is trying to protect what's left of himself by keeping his distance. Lando is trying to call it caution, even while he keeps proving it's anything but. But Formula 1 doesn't leave room for clean breaks, and the closer the title fight gets, the harder it becomes to separate rivalry from ruin. Because some lines are easy to cross. The impossible part is living with what comes after.

Oscar has two rules: Protect Amelie at all costs, and never let anyone close enough to leave again. At twenty-four, Oscar Piastri's life is a routine of silence and survival. Abandoned by his partner shortly after their daughter was born, he has built a fortress around his heart. He is a brilliant lawyer and a devoted father, but inside, he is frozen. When his old friends Charles and Max offer him a lifeline-a job and a fresh start in sunny Monaco-Oscar accepts, desperate for a change. He expects hard work and a quiet life. He does not expect Lando. Lando is Amelie's new kindergarten teacher. He is loud, chaotic, overwhelmingly affectionate, and wears his heart on his sleeve-everything Oscar is not. And while Amelie instantly falls in love with her colourful new teacher, Oscar finds himself terrified by the warmth Lando tries to force into his life. Lando is determined to melt the ice around the single dad's heart. But Oscar is convinced that everything good eventually leaves. Can a preschool teacher with too much energy teach a broken lawyer that some people are actually meant to stay?

(+18) Oscar has always been alone until Cambridge. One party. One unexpected meeting with Daniel. One moment that changes everything, even if he doesn't know it yet. Suddenly, he's surrounded by the kind of friends he never thought he'd have and by Lando, at the center of it all. Sometimes, belonging begins by accident.

Two men, shaped by the same law school halls-though never quite side by side. Lando Norris was always a step ahead, a senior others admired without question. Oscar Piastri watched from a distance-through subtle glances across lecture rooms, shared silences in late-night study sessions, and a quiet admiration he never quite voiced. Oscar believed in rules. Not just the kind written in textbooks, but the kind etched into his bones-discipline, restraint, devotion. Lando never did. Where Oscar saw lines not to be crossed, Lando barely acknowledged they existed. And somehow, that difference became the very thing that pulled them together-until it broke something in Oscar he could never quite piece back the same way. Until something happened. Something that tore whatever fragile connection they had into pieces. Years later, they meet again-not as students, but as rivals. Oscar, now a prosecutor. Lando, a defense lawyer. On opposite sides of the courtroom, their worlds collide once more-this time tangled in tension, resentment, and everything they never resolved. Because some lines, once crossed, don't just disappear. They haunt you.

It all started with a bet that was made by a very drunk Lando, who was apparently not kidding at all... One reckless night. One stupid game. One dare Oscar refuses to take. Lando's pride takes the hit - and by the time the party burns out, the bet is already sealed. Lando Norris bets he can make Oscar Piastri to 'like' him. Oscar only agrees to calm (drunk) him down. He doesn't expect Lando to remember it. He definitely doesn't expect him to mean it. But the next morning comes with a bouquet of roses, relentless charm, and a promise Lando is determined to win - one gesture at a time. It was supposed to be harmless. It wasn't. ; ) - Book 2 - (Can be read as a standalone) Prequel: -) Is This Love? - Book 1 - Rustappen
