In a city where adrenaline fuels the night, Nova Laurent gets tangled in the deadly world of illegal street racing. Behind the roaring engines and screeching tires lies a darker game-one where victory can mean life, and defeat, death.

And death is a heavy price to pay.

With this Nova still chooses to be involved in a heavy race filled with a large sum of money, but she's up against the world's best street racer who's a force to reckoned with.

Nova knows this race has a high stakes and if she loses the price to pay is high. But what happens if the game suddenly turns deadly?

Nova is late to realise it's too late to back out and turn the tables until she's offered help-a saving grace. How far is Nova willing to go to cover her tracks and what is the price she's willing to pay?

Nova has one question for her saving grace; in a world where trust is a luxury, can she rely on her, or will this payout be the last thing she's known for?

"Nova, don't play with me right now," she said and wrapped her hands around my throat a little tighter. "Tell me what you need," she said in a lowered tone, her face inches away from mine.

"You," I said. "I need you. To feel you, touch you." I said inching for her lips.

She let go of me and took a step back.

"It's such a shame I don't fuck girls who aren't honest. Honesty and trust are a rare commodity." She muttered and immediately threw back the rest of her remaining whiskey.
