Seven years ago, I was one of the best in downhill mountain biking—a girl with grit, speed, and a shot at gold.

But that was before my competitor's brother sabotaged my bike, before the crash shattered my body and stole the future I'd spent my entire life chasing.

They thought I had disappeared. And maybe I did.

But now I'm back, racing under a new name and hiding behind a mask—one that makes me unrecognizable.

To the world, I'm just another guy chasing a podium.

To him, I'm no one to fear.

That's exactly how I want it.

This isn't about glory. I didn't return to reclaim my title.

I came to ruin his.

To beat him at his own game. To humiliate him in front of everyone who cheered when I fell. To prove that, even broken, a girl like me was always better than him.

But what I didn't see coming was them.

The golden boy with something to prove.

The French flirt who grins like sin and plays even dirtier.

And the one person I swore I'd never let close—my brother's best friend, who sees more than I can afford to show.

This was supposed to be simple.

But nothing about revenge ever is.
