Faster Than You
At Oakridge University, everyone knows Ellis Brooks. He’s the golden boy—the soccer captain, the coach’s son, and the guy with the perfect girlfriend, perfect reputation, and seemingly perfect life. What nobody knows is that the one girl he’s never supposed to fall for has always been right in front of him. Y/N Hale. His best friend’s little sister. When Ellis finally realizes his feelings for Y/N are no longer something he can ignore, he does the worst possible thing—he pushes her away and flaunts his relationship with Emma instead. So Y/N stops waiting. And that’s when Ryker King walks into her life. Ryker is everything Ellis isn’t. He’s reckless, cocky, and infamous for his late-night street races and motorcycle rides. He lives for speed, danger, and breaking every rule in his way. But when it comes to Y/N, Ryker slows down. He sees the girl Ellis keeps taking for granted and shows her exactly what it feels like to be chosen. Now Ellis is watching the girl he secretly loves fall for the one guy he can’t stand. And there’s one person caught directly between them: Slade Hale—Y/N’s protective brother and Ellis’s best friend. Slade trusted Ellis with his sister. He never imagined he’d have to choose between his best friend and the person he’s spent his entire life protecting. Because sometimes the person you’ve loved quietly for years isn’t the person who deserves your heart. And sometimes the boy everyone warns you about is the one who shows you your worth. One golden boy. One reckless bad boy. One girl caught between them. And when the race for Y/N’s heart begins, only one of them will cross the finish line first.
