by Carla Vass (Author)
A young tech entrepreneur--ousted from her start-up and reeling--escapes to Europe for a glamorous car rally, where she must contend with the excesses of the über-rich, betrayal, and love. Perfect for fans of The Wedding People and The White Lotus.
Charlotte "Charlie" Walker has spent the last four years building the dating app Flutter. Despite her own lack of dating experience (!), Flutter is instantly successful. Perhaps too successful. After rejecting the romantic advances of her cofounder, Charlie finds herself unceremoniously ousted. Dispirited, she impulsively joins her BFF on the Rally--an extravagant European road trip featuring luxury cars, lavish parties, and breathtaking destinations. Although she feels out of place, Charlie embraces her new freedom, indulging in the Rally's hedonism. But just as she begins to regain her footing, Charlie realizes she can't outdrive her past: Instead she must reckon with the fallout from her ouster, her company's buried secrets, and an unexpected attraction that complicates everything.Author Biography
