Surge by Piper Frost

I got out of this place. I made something of myself. I did it.
I’m Bo Hart and I had the world at my fingertips. Bull riding was my ‘in’ to freedom from this small town.
In under a minute, all of it was ripped away.
Gone in the blink of an eye.
Now I’m back in town, and I’m not that happy about it. I’ve got too much time and not enough thrills.
Kinlee was my first love. She’s the girl I pined for since we were little. When I left, I never planned on coming back. Now that I am, I hadn’t expected to find Kinlee still single, sexy as ever. I especially hadn‘t planned on finding her playing mom to her teenage siblings because of their parents’ sudden death. Now that I’m back, she needs to notice the new me. The grown-up me. She notices all right, but she also notices I’m still an adrenaline junky.
I still need that surge pumping through my veins.
She still likes to play it safe and have her days planned out. I don’t mind her ways, but she certainly can’t get used to mine. Doesn’t mean I’m going to stop though.
It took minutes to rip my career from the spotlight.
It only takes seconds to decide whose life is worth more, and the outcome of that split-second decision will change everything.
