Steel Hearts

Karsyn Bennett is a snarky, straight-A college student who's always done what her parents expected... on the surface. But behind the smiles and medical school brochures, she's obsessed with engines and speed. When she discovers her brother Kevin's hidden world of underground racing in Atlanta, she crashes headfirst into something that feels more like home than her own-especially when it comes with Noah Moore, her brother's best friend with quiet intensity and secrets of his own.

Noah's spent the last few years keeping his head down, but when Karsyn reappears, all sharp edges and car talk, he finds himself drawn to her in a way he can't ignore. Their connection is fast, real, and impossible to hide-but nothing in their world is simple. Especially not when a rival racer with dangerous motives sets his sights on both Karsyn and Noah, and threatens to destroy everything they've started to build.

As the stakes on and off the track rise, Karsyn finds herself at a crossroads: Will she chase the path her family chose for her, or risk it all for the one she wants to build herself-one filled with grease-stained dreams, late-night races, and a love that might just be worth defying every expectation she was raised to follow?
