"You're in my seat."

Théo Marchetti glances at the three-time World Champion blocking the simulator doorway and smiles like he has no instinct for self-preservation. "Then take it back."

Dominik Reyes has built his career on control. Every braking point calculated. Every answer rehearsed. Every dangerous emotion locked somewhere it cannot interfere with his pursuit of a fourth championship. He knows what one mistake can cost at two hundred miles per hour, and he has no intention of letting anyone close enough to become another weakness.

Then his team signs Théo.

At twenty-three, the brilliant rookie is everything Dominik refuses to be-reckless, magnetic, impossible to silence, and fast enough to threaten the hierarchy Dominik has spent years perfecting. Their hostility begins in telemetry meetings and spills onto the track, where every lap becomes a challenge and every victory feels personal.

But late nights in the simulator leave them with nowhere to hide. Cutting remarks become charged silences. Anger becomes hunger. One reckless kiss becomes a secret neither man can afford to expose.

Between hotel rooms, empty garages, relentless cameras, and a championship battle that demands absolute focus, Dominik and Théo discover that hiding what they feel may be even more dangerous than admitting it. Théo wants to be chosen as more than a teammate or a rival. Dominik wants him with an intensity that threatens the control he once believed could keep everyone safe.

When ambition pushes them toward the limits of the car-and each other-the line between competition and destruction begins to disappear.

How can Dominik protect the man he cannot stop wanting when loving Théo may be the one risk he was never built to survive?
