    Summary

    Strangers to friends to lovers dual POV <3

    From her dad’s Chicago auto shop to Cambridge on a scholarship, Brynn Fraser has worked her whole life to join McLaren as a new engineer while maintaining a secret identity online, the one guilty pleasure she's allowed herself. In a life built on sacrifice and family duty, breathing was never an option but Formula 1 completely steals the air from her lungs and throws her into a rollercoaster of highs and lows, colorful characters, international adventures, and men who make love feel not just possible, but dangerous.

    She's not used to the spotlight that the sport brings, hiding behind her anonymous internet persona, TurboBerry, as one of the most successful sim racers in the world. But amid F1’s wealth, politics, and pressure, she thrives, building unshakable friendships and wondering for the first time if this is where she really does belong. As an engineer for Oscar's car, the Aussie becomes a permanent fixture in her life as her driver, a friend… and maybe something else. When Brynn is faced with a tempting opportunity to go public with her online identity, she grapples with how it could irrevocably change the life she's worked so hard to build and protect.

    Summary

    Isla MacLean had a solid life.

    It consisted of her two dogs, Beag and Mòr, developing world-class video games, and a strictly pragmatic arrangement with Max Verstappen that required only two things: discretion and latex.

    Friends with benefits. No drama. Zero complications.

    Just the occasional hotel room, a mutual understanding, and the comforting lie that two functioning adults can actually keep anything "casual" forever.

    Then, a condom breaks.

    Now Isla has a problem that can't be fixed with caffeine, sarcasm, or burying herself in work.
    Meanwhile, Max is discovering that "control" is a lovely concept right up until biology laughs in his face.

    Between the chaos of the paddock, two people who are well trained at dodging emotional honesty, and a future that refuses to stay quiet, their perfectly unlabelled setup starts to feel dangerously... real.

    It's only a wee bit pregnant, after all.

    What's the worst that could happen?

    Summary

    As the 2025 season progresses, rumours intensify about a possible Toyota power unit for 2026, though who will use it come 2026 remains shrouded in mystery.

    Oscar Piastri is growing increasingly discontent with each passing race; McLaren has slowly been eroding his patience, and sooner or later, he'll have had enough. This feeling only worsens as the team increasingly favours Lando Norris more publicly.

    Meanwhile, Matilda Trent is at the top of Australian motorsport after making history at Bathurst and duking it out for the title of V8 Supercars champion. However, Matilda's past in F3 has her itching for a call to F1, which she thinks will never come.

    Both will be united under one roof on an expanded 2026 starting grid. With new rules and regulations that level the playing field for the top teams, the stage is set for a title fight for the ages. Though Oscar and Matilda's history suggests they will do more than just drive the cars.

    Summary

    When the 25th Hunger Games arrive, Panem is gripped with fear. This is the first Quarter Quell. And for it, the Tributes must be chosen by being voted for by their own district members: and the boy and girl with the most votes are this year's Tributes.

    Madeline Rose Baird, clandestine daughter of Lucy Gray Baird, just wants to get through the day, despite her suspicious feeling that she will be chosen as the female Tribute for District 12. And when her name is called, she is proven right.

    But Madeleine Rose has no idea how much her life would change by the events of a single day.
