False Start - Max Verstappen

When Devon Martin moves to Monaco in the summer of 2024 to escape her troubled past, the last thing she expects is to meet a mysterious stranger at a local bar who lies about his identity. Max tells her he's "just a driver," but he's actually Max Verstappen, three-time Formula 1 World Champion racing for Red Bull. For the first time in her life, Devon feels truly seen by someone, and Max finally has what he's always wanted: someone who loves him for who he is, not what he's famous for. But as their relationship deepens, so does the deception. Devon is battling her own demons - unprocessed grief, trauma from her mother's abuse, and self-destructive tendencies that emerge whenever life feels out of control. Max tries to be her anchor, but he makes her lose control while he maintains his elaborate lie. Together, they must confront whether love built on deception can transform into something real.
