A Crown and Driven Hearts

I fix engines. I break lap records.
I do not fall for pretty boys with dimples and mysterious backstories.

So of course Leo Carter—aka, the charming stranger who showed up in Mistwood Peak with zero clue how spark plugs work—had to be my racing partner.

He’s got too-clean hands, too-smooth lines, and a smile that’s way too distracting. But when we’re thrown into the same pit crew tent? Sparks fly. Fast. And not just from the engines.

The kicker? I’ve got a secret. A big one. The kind that wears a helmet and answers to “Vixen”—Mistwood’s undefeated mystery racer.

But I’m not the only one lying.

Because Leo? He’s not just new in town.
He’s a freaking prince.

Now we’re racing against rivals, the clock, and the truth. And somehow, my heart’s caught in the middle.

I said I’d never fall for a guy like him.
Guess what? I lied.

A small-town romance with royal secrets, a masked mechanic, and just enough horsepower and heart to make you believe in second chances and taking the leap.
