He's the Ice Man of Formula 1. She's the only one who can melt him. Elias Thorne is twenty years into a career that's breaking him. Obsessed, isolated, and driving on broken ribs he can't tell anyone about, he is one bad race away from losing his seat. He needs a miracle to save his legacy. Instead, he gets a babysitter. Chloe Valentine is the team's PR miracle worker. She spins sunshine out of disaster and makes the brutal business of racing look like a fairy tale. When she discovers Elias's secret injury, she doesn't turn him in. She helps him hide it. Suddenly, the woman whose job is to make him look good is the only thing keeping him alive. She becomes his hands, his voice, and his anchor. But the intimacy of secret tape jobs and late-night pain management blurs the line between professional and personal. He's 34, cynical, and fighting for his life. She's 24, ambitious, and risking her career to save him. They know the rules: Team personnel are off-limits. But some lines are meant to be crossed at 200 mph. TEAM ORDERS is a high-heat contemporary sports romance featuring a grumpy veteran driver, a sunshine PR manager, and a happily ever after that earns its victory lap.
