Ryan Blaney, one of NASCAR's rising stars, is known for his charm and skill on the track-but off it, he hides a deeper truth: he's in love with his best friend and teammate, a fiercely competitive female driver. Their friendship has always been their safe haven, built on late nights, long drives, and unspoken understanding. But one impulsive, tequila-fueled kiss after a shared victory changes everything.
For Ryan, the kiss is everything he's dreamed of. For her, it's a complication in a bond she's always counted on. As their connection intensifies behind the scenes, emotions blur and the pressure of racing, media scrutiny, and team dynamics mount.
Now, they must face what they truly want-on and off the track. For Ryan, it's finally chasing the love he's kept hidden. For her, it's deciding if she's willing to risk everything for the one person who's always had her back.
Because in racing-and in love-sometimes you have to take the leap, not knowing where you'll land

Remind Me « Chase Elliott »
Chase Elliott had it all - a promising racing career and possibly the love of his life by his side. But what scared him the most wasn't the racing, nor moving up in the NASCAR series, it was the fact that he was so in love that it caused him to step back and because of that, he ruined the one thing that was good for him. Was it possible to have a second chance after screwing things up? ** If time could be rewritten, Sadie Mae would tell her younger self to run away when she met Chase Elliott, because he's not worth the heartache that he put her through. He's not worth the constant thought of "what happened between us" and he's certainly not worth falling in love with all over again. When Sadie's hopes and dreams fall at the wayside, she finds herself in a situation she never thought possible - how one night with Chase changes her future for the good, and maybe, after all this time, this is what her dream should have been in the first place.
