A high-octane romance about a woman who lives life at 200 mph and the one man powerful enough to make her stop.
The Crash Nova Heart is the best stunt driver in the business. She’s spent her life dodging explosions and outrunning her past, living by one never slow down. But when a high-stakes stunt goes lethally wrong, Nova is left with a shattered shoulder and a career in tatters. Sidelined and vulnerable, she has nowhere to go—until her brothers drop her at the doorstep of a man who is as rugged and unyielding as the mountains he calls home.
The Mechanic Kane Brant is a legend in the world of elite restorations. He’s a man of few words, massive hands, and a quiet, terrifying discipline. He builds things to last, and he doesn’t tolerate brokenness—unless he’s the one fixing it. When the fire-breathing stunt girl invades his quiet sanctuary, he doesn’t see a patient. He sees a masterpiece in need of a steady hand.
The Friction In the isolation of Kane’s modern farmhouse, the tension between them vibrates like a redlining engine. Kane is determined to be her protector, enforcing a recovery she doesn’t want. But Nova isn’t used to being handled, and she’s definitely not used to a man who demands surrender instead of speed.
As a predatory shadow from Nova’s past reappears to threaten her dignity, Kane’s "gentleman" persona cracks, revealing a lethal protector who will salt the earth to keep her safe.
Nova came for a place to heal, but she’s about to find out that out in the woods, the gates are locked—and Kane Brant doesn't let go of what’s his.
