Brakes, Lies, and LoveAt the World Rally Championship Final, my fiancee, Brielle Fuller, deliberately gave me the wrong turn call. Because of her, I lost the championship.
Right there on the spot, she called off our engagement and ran straight into the arms of my rival, Chase Monroe.
Just when I thought I'd lost everything, my childhood friend, Naomi Sutton, proposed to me.
"It's okay. To me, you'll always be number one."
Seven years later, I rebuilt my career and fought my way back to the top. Just as I was preparing to break Chase's championship record, a brake failure sent my car plunging off a mountainside.
While drifting in and out of consciousness at the hospital, I overheard a conversation outside my room.
"You're ruthless. You actually did something like this. Weren't you afraid he might die?"
"If he dies, so be it. The only person I've ever loved is Chase. I only regret that you married him before I could. Otherwise I wouldn't have had to put myself through that all these years."
I stared wide-eyed into the darkness. The love I thought was so deep was nothing more than wishful thinking.
If they cared so much about Chase, then maybe I should disappear.
