Set the Pace

One devastating tragedy.Two broken souls.A love made whole.A boy and a girl. Snakes and snails, and puppy dogs tails. Sugar and spice, and everything nice. When you're eight and best friends that's how you see the world.A man and a woman. Dark and delicious, and hardened by circumstances. Desolation and despair, and haunted by unknown secrets. When you're twenty-eight and accused of unspeakable things that's the only way you can see the world.It didn't matter that no one ever really knew what happened. Twenty years ago her life was irrevocably changed. She never imagined she would be anything more than the girl always forgotten. But now she's back in the broken city of Detroit to prove them wrong. Branded trouble. A bad boy. Not worth a damn. He fought his way through his teen years. His love of cars the only thing that could battle his delinquency. With the need for speed in his blood, he overcame his past and sped his way to the top. Now looked upon for hope, he's the one who is going to turn things around. And the bankrupt city of Detroit hails him as their shining star. Jasper Storm is a complete contradiction. Untamed, yet always in control. That is until one reckless turn almost has him literally crashing into the tomboy who used to live next door to him. Charlotte Lane is the little girl he played Matchbox cars with when he was a young boy. Before his life changed. And before her life changed. Before the city changed forever.
