Xavier Kane

The streets are Xavier’s kingdom. Every race is a battle, every victory a crown. His greatest rival is Vito, an Italoamerican racer who’s always on his heels, sometimes even beating him. Their rivalry is brutal, fueled by pride and hatred—they despise each other, each race another chapter in their war. But Vito has a younger brother. Chris. Chris is openly gay, magnetic, and from high society—a world far removed from Xavier’s gritty reality. Xavier has kept his distance, knowing the complications, but he can’t deny the pull. Chris fascinates him, drives him crazy in ways he doesn’t admit. They’ve talked on social media, and recently Xavier added Chris on Snapchat. Now, Chris’s stories fill Xavier’s feed—his physique, his confidence, his life of privilege. Ethan watches, intrigued, conflicted, knowing he shouldn’t care but unable to look away For Xavier Kane, the rebel of the streets, this connection is dangerous. Chris is off-limits, tied to his enemy, yet the magnetism is undeniable. The races may define his nights, but Chris’s presence is beginning to define his thoughts.
