A girl chasing her dream. A boy looking for the light. When Florence Nyx started her internship at a Formula 1 paddock, she expected a lot. Fast cars. Exclusive impressions most people could only dream of. An entire array of skills she'd acquire. What she didn't expect was the avalanche of hurdles thrown in her way -- but none of them knew who Florence Nyx was behind her facade, behind the image of a world champion's daughter. She was fire. She was fast. And most of all... she was underestimated. Phoenix McCoy didn't know what hit him when he got thrown out of his team. His whole career was on the line, just because of that one stupid mistake. One mistake. How far will he go to rectify it? To pursue his dreams? One thing was clear: He saw the light, and he wanted it. All he could hope was he didn't get burned.

He's a floater and that's not as pleasing as it used to be. When the two meet at Forbes Family Coffeehouse, they begin to realize they have a whole lot more in common than just their favorite order of a simple black coffee.
