Broken Track

He’s her best friend.

Her fiercest rival.

And the one race she never meant to run.

In a small town where dirt track racing is everything, reputations are earned in the pits and lost in the stands. Izzy Jones doesn’t just want to compete; she wants to dominate. In a sport ruled by men, she refuses to be the girl who fades into the background.

The only problem?

Xavier Sweeney.

Izzy Jones

Racing is in my blood. The roar of the engine, the grit of the dirt, the rush of pushing limits, it’s the only thing that makes sense in my life. Off the track, everything’s a mess. Between my dad’s expectations, my mom’s death, and the weight of proving I belong in a sport dominated by men, I don’t have time for distractions.

Especially not Xavier Sweeney.

He’s my best friend. My fiercest competitor. The one person who knows me better than I know myself. We’ve spent years side by side, pushing and daring each other, and toeing the line between friendship and something more.

But when one night blurs the line, everything changes.

I can handle high speeds, sharp turns, and the chaos of the track. But this? This is the one race I don’t know how to win.

Izzy Jones is a force of nature. She’s reckless, stubborn, and the best damn driver I’ve ever raced against. She’s also my best friend. Has been since we were kids, racing anything with wheels and chasing the same dream.

But lately, something’s different. The way she looks at me. The way my heart pounds when she’s near. The way one mistake, one night, could ruin everything we’ve built.

I can’t lose her, but I also can’t ignore that I don’t want to race beside her anymore. I want her.

Izzy’s always been afraid of wrecking. But sometimes you have to risk it all for the finish line.
