Description
About the book
She can control any car except the woman driving it.
Twenty-eight-year-old racing phenomenon Vesper Moretti is fast enough to win a world championship and reckless enough to destroy the machinery meant to get her there. After a disastrous opening race, Moretti Corse hires forty-five-year-old engineering legend Dr. Astrid Falk to rebuild the unreliable car—and bring discipline to the driver.
Astrid is precise, silver-haired, and unmoved by Vesper’s charm. Inside the car, she expects data, discipline, and absolute compliance. Vesper responds by challenging nearly every instruction.
Their arguments become charged enough that Astrid proposes a private test: if Vesper wants to prove she can follow directions, she can begin somewhere safer than a racetrack.
One encounter becomes a secret arrangement built around rules, praise, delayed gratification, and the relief Vesper finds in letting someone else take control.
Then a mechanical failure nearly kills her. Astrid finds evidence that the team’s problems are not accidental, turning an already volatile season into a sabotage investigation with real danger.
To survive it, Vesper has to learn that courage and recklessness are not the same thing. Astrid has to decide whether protecting Vesper means controlling every variable—or trusting the woman she loves with the truth.
