Shifting Into High Gear [BOOK 1]

The high-speed glow-up you didn't see coming.

It started with an "investment" that went bankrupt.

I thought Lucas Ryder was the observant biker who saw the real me. I thought the helmets, the jackets, and the quiet smiles were promises of a "forever." But then Hailey showed up, and I realized I wasn't an investment to Lucas-I was just a placeholder.

After the heartbreak, I didn't just cry. I evolved.

The girl who wore the colors he liked is gone. In her place is a woman who rides for herself, looks better than ever, and doesn't take "small gestures" as gospel anymore. I did a total 360°, and I'm never looking back.

But just as I've learned to hold my own on the asphalt, a new name has entered the chat.

Zephyr.

He's faster, bolder, and he doesn't want to "invest" in me. He wants to keep up with me. Lucas is realizing what he lost, but Zephyr is already moving into the lane Lucas left behind.

In the race for my heart, the old Lucas is miles back in the rearview mirror. And Zephyr? He's just getting started.
