She restores classic motorcycles. She rebuilds theories. Neither expects love to spark in the process.

Finn Murphy keeps her life simple—running her vintage motorcycle shop in Maple Corner, keeping her head down, and avoiding unnecessary complications. But when Grace Taylor, a determined mechanical engineering professor, rolls into town with a broken-down classic car and a stubborn streak to match, Finn's quiet world shifts gears.

Grace is on sabbatical, looking for hands-on experience with real engines instead of just lecturing about them. She's eager to observe and learn from Finn's expertise—but Finn isn't used to sharing her space, let alone collaborating with someone who challenges her every method.

As their professional clashes give way to charged silences and stolen glances, Finn and Grace find themselves navigating more than just engine repairs. But when the past and future pull them in different directions, will they stall out before they even get started?

A slow-burn, opposites-attract LGBTQ+ romance filled with small-town charm, vintage motorcycles, and the undeniable spark of two women learning to trust each other—one wrench at a time.
