Throttled (Deluxe Edition) (Dirty Air, 1)

New York Times bestseller and TikTok sensation Lauren Asher brings her signature heart, angst, and steam to a high-octane series of interconnected standalones featuring F1 drivers. Noah Slade is a legend in the making, and Maya Alatorre's brother's rival...but their forbidden passion is one move away from detonating.

Noah

Maya Alatorre is the sister of my teammate...and my new obsession.

Keeping my distance during the Formula 1 season should be easy, except I always find ways to see her.

Press tours. Pre-race rituals. Sponsor events and black-tie galas.

The more time we spend together, the stronger my desire grows.

Sneaking around with her is one thing, but wanting more?

Never going to happen.

She might be a distraction dressed like a daydream, but no woman is worth risking the championship title over.

Or so I thought.

Maya

Noah Slade is Formula 1 royalty and my brother's biggest rival.

When I'm invited to join my sibling while he competes for the World Championship, I promise to avoid Noah at all costs.

Twenty-one races. Two drivers who hate each other. And one forbidden attraction I can't ignore.

Developing feelings for Noah wasn't part of my plan.

But then again, neither was anyone finding out.

Turns out the man I was warned about happens to be the one I can't stay away from.

Even if he breaks my heart once the season comes to an end.
