Street racing is worshipped in the town of Bryne. Which means naturally, so are the street racers.
And Zia Dayes just happens to be the most popular- except nobody knows it.
Hidden behind a mask and sat behind a steering wheel, Zia's double life begins. Concealed behind books and placed behind a desk, Zia's double life ends.
After years of perfecting her two lives and keeping them as far away from each other as she could manage, she didn't expect her two worlds to collide: especially not because of the disappearance of her racing rival and secret best friend Greyson Hunter.
Now she's stuck in the middle of a century old mystery with Greyson's girlfriend: Jessica, her monster of a step sister and Greyson's bad boy brother.
Some fighting, some laughing and an over the top group competition causes these opposites to become allies and eventually realise that there's no such thing as coincidences.
Especially when an arch Nemesis and a nosey nerd are involved.
So fasten your seatbelt and rev your engine... because with a race track full of speeding cars, death is always a competitor.
I don't know if the summary does the plot I have in mind justice, but I hope you give my books a chance.
