Overdrive - Amber Vant

Rule one: Don’t look back at the wreckage.

Rule two: Never let them see you bleed.

Carter Hayes knew the danger of getting too close to Dominic Valerio. She just never expected the worst collision to happen off the track.

Now, the deal that brought her to the Valerio estate feels less like a temporary sanctuary and more like a sentence. She is still trapped under his roof, forced to play a part and pretend what happened between them never existed, all while Dominic prepares for a future that doesn’t include her.

But the house isn’t her only prison.

When a toxic figure from her past unexpectedly resurfaces-lured by the wealth and prestige now tied to the Hayes name-Carter is caught between a family dynamic built on superficial lies and the quiet torture of living with a man who is suddenly a stranger.

Guarding her secrets was hard enough. Guarding her heart while living inches away from the person who broke it might just ruin her completely.

Some wrecks you can walk away from.

Others will force you into overdrive.
