After her father's death, Amélia Leclerq runs-from her family, her past, and a secret she buried too deep to name.
London was supposed to be a fresh start. Instead, it became a place to hide.
Because a year earlier, one night changed everything.
Max was never supposed to be part of the story like that. Older, untouchable, part of a world she had grown up around but never crossed in that way. But grief blurs lines-and what felt right in the moment became something impossible to face the morning after.
So she disappeared.
Now, a year and a half later, she's back.
And Max isn't the same.
The quiet, controlled version of him is gone-replaced by someone sharper, colder, reckless both on and off track. A champion, yes. But also someone people have started to fear. Someone who looks at her like she's the one thing he never got closure on.
As Amélia tries to move forward, a new relationship pulls her into a different kind of control-subtle, polished, and suffocating in ways she doesn't immediately recognize.
Caught between a past she ran from, a present that's slowly erasing her, and a version of Max she no longer understands, Amélia is forced to confront the truth.
