Everything began again with her. She was the spark that reignited a war long thought extinguished. The elders were believed to have freed the western edge of Monaco, until the moment she stepped into a world she was never meant to see. A world kept from her for her own protection, so she could taste something dangerously close to peace. But peace was always an illusion. The ancient cartels crawl back from the shadows, and the silent empires of Formula One drivers threaten to fight back. Among them, one driver watches her too closely. His obsession quiet, consuming, inevitable. And when betrayals surface, sharp and merciless, there is no one left to trust. Millina Acosta-Mendez has no choice but to carve her own path through blood and secrets, to decide who she will become when everything around her is burning. ⚠ DARK ROMANCE : please read the trigger warnings.
