She wasn't looking for love. He wasn't expecting fate.
Nora is an indie author living her dream- early mornings, quiet cafés, and fictional characters who behave better than real people. She writes stories, not headlines. But when a chance run-in with Formula 1 driver Lando Norris sends sparks flying without a single word exchanged, her predictable world veers off course.
One glance. That's all it takes.
Then comes the DM.
And suddenly, late-night texts become routine, race weekends blur into something personal, and Nora finds herself caught in a story she didn't write-but one she might actually want to live.

Brake Bias - Lando Norris
She's built an empire, bought her own jet, and made hedge fund managers cry - but when Vivienne Sinclair lands in Monaco for a routine investment meeting, the last thing she expects is Formula 1's golden boy grinning at her like she's his next win. Vivienne doesn't do distractions. Not when she's spent years turning courtroom scraps into capital, and trauma into titanium. She's here to talk business, not flirt with a man who has his face on billboards and his life splashed across tabloids. But Lando Norris is charming. Too charming. And unfortunately, immune to being ignored. What starts as a conversation becomes a connection. Then a secret. Then a storm. Because when you mix a fiercely private woman with a dangerously public sport, something's going to break - and it won't be just the internet. Set against a backdrop of fast cars, sharper banter, and high-stakes emotion, this is a story about what happens when the girl who swore she'd never need anyone falls for the boy the world refuses to leave alone. Messy. Honest. Unfiltered. And maybe a little terrifying.Complete

love, rewritten
--- Lando Norris wakes up from a year-long coma with no memory of the love story that changed his life. He remembers Oscar Piastri as a rival. A teammate. Nothing more. Not the secret glances. Not the whispered I love yous. Not the marriage. Not the night he promised forever. Now, Oscar stands by his side-husband, stranger, and the man Lando unknowingly gave his whole heart to. But how do you fight for someone who doesn't remember loving you? How do you make someone fall in love with you again, when every memory of "us" is gone? In a story filled with heartbreak, healing, and second chances, The Second First Time takes you through the slow burn of re-falling in love, the weight of forgotten vows, and the aching beauty of choosing each other-even when the past is lost. Because sometimes, the heart remembers what the mind forgets. ---Complete
