Brooklyn Pierre's world crashed when her brother died. Being an F1 legend, the cameras that were on him were now on her. Getting promoted from the lower F2 league to the prestigious F1 league was an honor, one Brooklyn wasn't expecting any time soon. There was no denying her talent, she breathed racing, she bled racing, racing was her life. But her being promoted to the big leagues meant that she was now Formula One's first female racer. She wanted this, this was her dream. But in this big world, she was lost without her brother. The only last living connection she had to her brother was now his six time world champion teammate. 

Emilio Savoy was the six-time world champion. He has dominated the sport from the moment he set foot in it. No one could match him. The only one that got close was Andre. And then he died. His teammate, his friend, the best person in his life died and Emilio didn't know how to cope. The only other person that understood his pain was his sister. Brooklyn was the girl no one saw coming and he thoroughly did not see her coming.

Despite the devasting circumstances that brought them together, Brooklyn and Emilio now have to deal with each other as teammates but more importantly as two people who's lost someone important to them. 

Formula One can be cutthroat. It has to be. Only 20 people in the entire world has a place in the sport. As the only female in the sport, Brooklyn has to fight harder than ever to make a name for herself, not as Andre's sister but as Brooklyn Pierre. Emilio wants to help her. He wants to get to know her, he wants to see her succeed but if that means losing to her...can he handle that? And adding feelings can only make things messier. 

No matter what fate has in store for the two of them--one thing's for sure. This season will be like none other.

➶。˚ part four of the RACING HEARTS series Carlos Sainz's career had seemingly hit its peak-or so everyone, including Carlos himself, believed. After a heartbreaking breakup with his long-term girlfriend, he found himself struggling to navigate life. Instead of entering his villain era on track, he started partying and sleeping with different women to fill the void. His lack of focus started to be evident on the track as well. While his teammate, Charles Leclerc, became the World Champion, Carlos was fighting to stay in the top ten. Alexandra Serrano had worked tirelessly her entire life. As the sister of a former karting driver and famous model, Marco, she always wanted to be known for more than just being "someone's sister." With a passion for motorsport and writing, she became a journalist at a renowned newspaper. In her role, she couldn't ignore the lifestyle changes and poor performance of a particular Ferrari driver. Naturally, Carlos became the subject of several of her articles. When these two very different people cross paths, they instantly know they will never be friends. Instead, they become rivals, each determined to bring the other down. Thus begins the great war between them. Despite their enmity, they share one common trait: ambition. A drive that surpasses their rivalry and the hatred they feel for each other. Or perhaps, beneath all that animosity, there is something even stronger. Something greater and unexpected. © all rights reserved, lxvenderhze 2024

I wasn't here to be a symbol - I was here to race, and I didn't want special treatment for having tits. The interviewer raised a brow, clearly not expecting me not to gush about it. "There was a moment where you and Carlos shared quite the emotional hug after the race. The fans are loving your chemistry as teammates. Is there any chance of Max getting some real competition there?" His lips curled into an arrogant smirk. My lips parted slightly in disbelief. Here we go. In which: Deedee has just landed the chance of a lifetime in the Formula one, Scuderia Ferrari Team. But it comes with complications. Carlos Sainz, her new teammate, being just the beginning. Carlos - who somehow manages to be both annoyingly skilled and ridiculously charming, is a stark contrast to her ex, Max Verstappen - the reigning champion. The man who's perfected the art of pushing her buttons, both on and off the track. If there's a way to make her life more complicated - Max will find it. What starts as playful flirting grows into something deeper, forcing Deedee to navigate the unresolved feelings she has for Max, and their toxic past - as well as her ambition to race in F1. While the world questions if Deedee even belongs in a Ferrari, she's determined to prove herself. But in a world where speed, fame, and old wounds collide, she'll need to figure out what really matters, and how far she's willing to go to hold onto who she is. Warning: ⚠️ This story is heavy on tension. There will be smut, cursing and adult themes such as, trauma, gaslighting, manipulation, violence, dominance, and occasional kink. You should not read, if you're sensitive in regards to any of these themes, so please consider yourself warned. Disclaimer: This is pure fanfiction and has nothing to do with the real people mentioned in it. I use the real circuits, and try my best to make the racing believable, but it's a free take. I'm just a fan, making shit up and having a blast!

But his warnings cannot keep her from doing her job, and ultimately learning more and more about each racer in each team. Charles Leclerc has the looks, he has the humour, he has the pick-up lines, but does he have exactly what it takes to win Mia over and keep her close for the rest of the season? Or will past relationships and old Vendettas come back to ruin his forever relationship. - 'Mia, I want you to come, of course I do, but i do not trust you around any of these boys and you're gonna be working with all of them.' Daniel sighed, pulling me into a hug and ruffling up my hair. 'Why don't we start with, oh my, I'm so proud of you!' I rolled my eyes. 'Oh come on, you know how proud I am of you, I knew you'd get it the second I heard about the opening. But now I'm worried about you.' He said, opening the passenger side door for me and walking around to his own. 'I'm 24 years old, Daniel, I'm not a child anymore.' I said, softly. 'You're still my baby sister, and f1 drivers are arseholes.' He muttered. 'I know, I'm related to one.' He nudged me, starting the engine and putting on his seatbelt, looking over at me silently, giving me the parent look he did all too often nowadays. 'You're there to do your job. Please, just do your job. I'd hate to go all mean on someone.' 'You can't be mean.' I chuckled. 'If anyone was to hurt you, you bet I would.' He responded. - I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE F1 DRIVERS OR NAMED PEOPLE IN THIS BOOK. ⚠️-may be some sexual scenes, sensitive subjects and bad language.
