(2025)(A book in the Hearts of Gold Hollow series)
A novel by Denise River
I saved him once. Now he’s a captivating billionaire racer with nothing to lose, and I’m the only finish line he wants.
Max Hawthorne: once the skinny kid I rescued with a bucket of paint. Now?
He’s all horsepower and haunted eyes, a billionaire race car driver who moves like he’s got nothing to lose—and kisses like it’s the last lap of his life.
Max caught me—veil torn, vows behind me, smoke in my wake.
I Didn’t plan to return to town in a wrecked wedding dress—especially not to his doorstep.
I should’ve said no to staying in his house. I should’ve said no to slipping into his bed.
But we’ve always had our own kind of speed. One minute we’re barely talking, the next we’re burning rubber and crossing lines we swore we never would.
The thing is... I came back to finish a painting.
I didn’t expect to start something that might wreck us both.
