Redline
Kael is a rookie mechanic with grease on his hands and big dreams he keeps mostly to himself. When he gets pulled into the underground street racing scene, he expects engines, noise, and maybe a little danger. He does not expect Asher.
Asher is notorious on the streets. Untouchable. Controlled. Dominant behind the handlebars and even more so off the bike. He lives for the rush of acceleration, for the moment when the engine screams and the world blurs. And when Kael starts tuning his bike, the finely tuned control Asher prides himself on begins to falter.
Every race pushes them closer to the edge. Every encounter burns hotter than the asphalt beneath their tires. Asher thrives on control, but Kael makes him want to lose it. And Kael, who has always played safe, finds himself craving the very danger he once feared.
In a world fueled by adrenaline and ego, where one wrong move can end in a crash, their connection becomes the most reckless risk of all. Because when desire runs this hot, someone is bound to go over the line.
And at redline, everything breaks.
