She’s the President’s daughter. He’s the town’s fastest troublemaker. Love just dropped the green flag. Spruce Davis lives for the rush of the race track and the freedom of the open road. But when a crash sends him back to his small hometown in search of a comeback, he never expects to collide with Eva Luna Clark — a brilliant, grounded woman who just happens to be the daughter of the President of the United States. Their worlds couldn’t be more different: he fixes engines and breaks speed limits, while she’s grown up behind guarded gates and constant headlines. Yet something about small-town life — and Spruce’s fearless charm — sparks a connection neither can ignore. But when Eva’s powerful mother decides the match is unacceptable, Spruce discovers just how far the First Family will go to protect their image. From secret dates and tabloid chaos to fast cars and faster rumors, this opposites-attract love story races toward one impossible question: can love outrun power? The Racer and the Girl Next Door is a feel-good small-town romantic comedy of fast cars, forbidden love, and second chances — perfect for fans of Fool’s Gold , The Proposal , and Notting Hill .
