He was the kind of man who didn't just take what, or who, he wanted, he took everything. One word is all it takes to want to fall to his feet, like countless before. He loved the chase, the thrill. Every time I think I'm out, he pulls me back in. I was addicted to the adrenaline, the rush of being near him, even when it destroyed me. I had never craved attention until I tasted his. So, once again I found myself in his twisted arcade.

Lena Schumacher walked away from Formula 1 the day her father did. Not when he retired. But the day the world lost Michael Schumacher to a ski accident that left his body alive but his spirit gone. Now ten years later, she's done everything to avoid the world that stole her father: She doesn't follow the races. She didn't watch her brother drive. She's cut off every connection to the paddock ... until she meets Charles Leclerc. She doesn't know who he is. He doesn't know who she is.

When Lena learns the man she's falling for races for the very sport that reminds her of everything she's lost, it feels like betrayal. When Charles finds out her last name, everything shifts. Because her father isn't just anyone. He's the reason Charles fell in love with racing. As feelings deepen and the truth unravels, they're left with a question that could destroy everything: Can love survive when the very thing that broke you is the thing keeping you apart?Complete
Haunted | Charles Leclerc
You and I walk a fragile line I have known it all this time But I never thought I'd live to see it break It's getting dark and it's all too quiet And I can't trust anything now And it's coming over you like it's all a big mistake - Haunted by Taylor Swift ----------------- Camille Mourea never cared for Formula 1. Her world was music-raw, aching, and beautifully untamed. But for Juliette Jones, her best friend and biggest fan, the track was everything. And so, Camille found herself in the heart of the paddock, in the whirlwind of roaring engines and flashing cameras. To Juliette, Charles Leclerc was the love of her life. To Camille, he was just her best friend's boyfriend-until he wasn't. Until stolen glances turned into something she couldn't ignore. Until his presence felt like a melody she was never meant to write. What begins as innocent admiration slowly unravels into something unspoken, something dangerous. It lingers in the spaces between races and late-night calls, in the weight of a gaze that lasts too long, in the suffocating guilt of wanting what she cannot have. Because love, like racing, is a ruthless game. One mistake, one wrong turn, and everything could go up in flames. But how do you stop a heart that's already in free fall?
