Fueled By Love: A Sweet Instalove Formula One RomCom Short Read

She’s a small-town photographer, and he’s racing toward glory. But even F1 drivers have to stop and refuel, and once Tony meets Sage, he’s suddenly being fueled by a love that has him questioning everything he thought he wanted.

Sage:

As a photographer in Blue Ridge, I’m used to capturing life’s quiet moments—weddings, family portraits, the golden hues of Appalachian sunsets. But when a last-minute call forces me to fill in for the town’s sports photographer, my world collides with Antonio Vega’s—the Brazilian Formula One superstar known as much for his icy demeanor as his blistering speed on the track.

Our first meeting? A chaotic mix of churros, unexpected laughter, and a spilled cinnamon-suger that leads to a storm of emotions I wasn’t prepared for. When a sudden downpour leaves us stranded on a mountainside in a vintage convertible, I discover there’s more to Tony than the headlines suggest. Beneath the guarded exterior is a man who feels deeply, laughs freely, and kisses like he’s racing a clock only he knows about.

I definitely didn’t expect him to look at me—the plus-sized girl who’s more comfortable behind the camera than in front of it—like I’m the only person in the world.

But with paparazzi closing in and his racing career pulling him around the globe, can our whirlwind romance survive the spotlight?

One thing’s certain: Love has no speed limit, and sometimes, it can fuel the fastest of relationships.

Trigger warnings: This sweet and clean sports romcom features witty banter, laugh-out-loud moments, adorable animal antics, a confident plus-sized heroine, and a swoon-worthy alpha male with a heart of gold. Buckle up for a heartwarming, opposites-attract journey that proves sometimes, love is the greatest adventure of all.
