The Last Ark to Mars

Ark CEO Elias Gray disguises as a nobody on the last escape pod, loses his Life Card, and is locked in a thruster tunnel to die by a cruel security chief. Rescued and reinstated, he shields Doctor Evelyn from a harassing overseer and a meteor storm. Posing as her boyfriend to dodge an arranged marriage, he crushes her elite circle with a legendary race record and a gifted speeder, until Mars's most powerful boss kneels to him. Rivals punished, he drives off with Evelyn into the Martian frontier.
