Williams Racing is on the brink; years of poor performance, financial strain, and fading legacy. But everything changes when Jackie Valeur, an untested rookie with raw talent and nerves of steel, is given the chance to race. As the only female driver on the Formula 1 grid, Jackie has spent her life earning every second behind the wheel. Now, with a seat at struggling Williams, she's doing the unthinkable: scoring points, defying critics, and forcing the world to pay attention.
As the F1 world takes notice, so does Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff. But the spotlight is ruthless, and with rival teams circling, the media closing in, and championship points on the line, Jackie cannot afford to be distracted.
Because the track doesn't care if you're ready. The lights go out either way.

What she forgot
Toto Wolff x Rosaline (christians Horner's daughter) ________________________ He looks at her, eyes entirely on her. "That was a reckless move. A bad one." He whispers close to the side of her face. His throat bobs somewhere near, and it sends a jitter through her. "But you seemed to like it." She answered cleverly through her breath. He was too close, it clouded her oxygen, making her breathless. She tried to focus her eyes elsewhere, maybe somewhere over his shoulder. Something light touches her lips, his thumb, and it lightly brushes over. "You have no idea what you're talking about." Her pulse skyrockets. "Toto- " She tries to speak but he covers her mouth with his hand lightly, forbidding her from speaking. "Do not test me." He whispers over his hand that was covering her mouth. If there were no hand, he would certainly have kissed her. Something was pushing her to grab his hand and remove it from her over her mouth. She was being daring, staring right into his eyes. He takes one small step forward, closing all space between them. Her heart lurches. He kisses her. ________________________________ Tropes: Older man x younger girl Team principal x engineer First kiss HEAComplete
