Almost enough for the spotlight.
Almost fast enough for Formula 1.
Almost willing to risk it all,
Until they met.
Amelie Sofia Monet Ricci is the picture of poise, flawless, ambitious, and unapologetically iconic. With her heart set on becoming a star, she's left behind her fractured family, beloved grandparents, and quiet life in the French countryside to chase the spotlight in Monaco. Now 21, she's one audition away from her breakout role and nothing will stand in her way.

Lorenzo Nico Vitali is the golden boy of Formula 2. Handsome, arrogant, and destined for Formula 1, his life moves at 300 kilometres per hour, and so does his ego. He has no time for distractions... until he accidentally knocks over a girl who speaks Italian like a native and glares like a queen.

When Amelie lands a role in a major film about racing, their paths collide again, this time on purpose. She needs to study the world of motorsport. He needs to get her out of his head. What starts as rivalry and flirtation turns into something deeper.

But with fame on the horizon and the world watching, can two rising stars afford to fall in love?
Or will ambition take the wheel?

Adrenaline Rush by AuthorTwilight
54 parts Ongoing Mature
Book 1 of the Full Throttle Series He fell first, but she fell harder. Aurora Fane has always thrived on the thrill of the stage, dancing under the spotlight, captivating millions on social media, and living a life where every move is choreographed to perfection. But when her best friend Alexandra Saint Mleux, invites her to a Grand Prix weekend to support Alexandra's boyfriend, Chares Leclerc, and his Ferrari teammate, Carlos Sainz, Aurora finds herself in an entirely different world, one fueled by speed, competition, and adrenaline unlike anything she's ever known. What she doesn't realize is that Alexandra and Charles have an ulterior motive. They've devised a plan to set her up with none other than Oscar Piastri, the rising star of McLaren. Initially skeptical of their matchmaking attempts, Aurora is caught off guard when she finally meets Oscar. Reserved yet effortlessly charming, he's a stark contrast to the fast-paced, high-energy world she's used to, but there's something about him that intrigues her. As the Grand Prix weekend unfolds, Aurora is swept into the chaos of the paddock, forming unexpected friendships, getting a firsthand taste of the F1 lifestyle, and sharing moments with Oscar that blur the lines between a casual setup and something real. Between pre-race jitters, post-race celebrations, and stolen moments in the midst of the high-speed world, Aurora starts to wonder if maybe, just maybe, she's found a new kind of adrenaline rush, one that has nothing to do with dance and everything to do with a certain McLaren driver. But with their lives moving at different speeds and their careers demanding everything from them, can a love story born in the fast lane truly go the distance? Started: April 11, 2025 Finished: ---

❝Falling for him wasn't falling at all. It was walking into a house and suddenly knowing you're home.❞ Alexandra Heroux has spent her life chasing the spotlight, but nothing has quite prepared her for her return to the world of Formula 1. After years in Hollywood, she's cast in a role that could launch her career to new heights-a biographical film about the sport that defined her childhood. But as the cameras roll and the world watches, everything she's worked for begins to crumble around her. Enter Charles Leclerc: Ferrari's golden boy, the embodiment of warmth, kindness, and raw talent. To Alexandra, he's the sun-a force of purity in a world that often feels dark and cold. But as they draw closer, she begins to realize that his light might be the only thing keeping her from falling apart. Beneath the glitz and glamour of her career lies a family history shrouded in scandal, and secrets that have always lingered just out of reach. A sinister gossip blog is poised to tear apart everything Alexandra holds dear, and her connection to key figures within the F1 world feels more like a curse than fate. With every moment of happiness slipping through her fingers, Alexandra wonders how much longer she can withstand the pressure of the spotlight-and whether Charles's warmth will be enough to save her from the storm that's closing in. In a world of fame, fortune, and fierce competition, sometimes the greatest victory is simply surviving. Because in the end, she's just as human as anyone else.
