In a garage full of noise, engines, and adrenaline, Sophie van Loon is focused on one thing: doing her job - and doing it well. She's the quiet mechanic who arrives early, leaves late, and doesn't care who's racing in the car she helps keep on track. Fame, glory and the spotlight? Not her problem. Especially not George Russell, the polite, talented driver who seems oblivious to everything outside his cockpit.
But when George finally notices her, the world tilts. He's drawn to her calm confidence, the effortless way she commands the garage without asking for attention. The small, precise gestures from her that keep the team running. And Sophie, who has spent years keeping distance from the distractions around her, finds herself falling harder than she ever intended.
A slow-burn story of quiet glances, subtle touches, and a love that grows not in the spotlight, but in the space between the engines and the grease-stained hands.
