A steamy, high-octane debut romance set in the world of Formula 1, featuring fake dating, enemies to lovers, and authentic queer and neurodivergent representation.
A political documentarian, Lilah Graywood is dismayed when her business partner and boyfriend Max decides they're going to film a documentary about Formula 1 racing team Ignition Energy Drink Racing. Her shock turns to fury when Max blindsides her, not only ending their relationship but also threatening the company she painstakingly built.
Enter Arthur Bianco, an enigmatic F1 reserve driver with a tumultuous career. Lilah is supposed to document Arthur's relegation to backup driver, but together they concoct a plan to take control of Max's documentary, each with their own motives – Lilah's revenge and Arthur's redemption.
As they navigate the circuits and secrets of Formula 1, an unexpected speedbump forces Lilah and Arthur's partnership to evolve into a fake relationship that feels all too real. The chemistry between them is undeniable, and Lilah finds herself drawn to Arthur's hidden vulnerability. But as the cameras roll and the world watches, Lilah must confront her own feelings and decide if it's time to go off course...
