I’m soaring. After years of hard work and determination, I am exactly where I want to be in life. As the top ranked Freestyle Motocross rider in the world, I have more money than I could ever dream of spending and gorgeous women throwing themselves at me in every city I land. I have everything I could ever want. Everything except her. While in Breckenridge for my best friend’s wedding, I was introduced to Dakota Shavell, a friend of the bride-to-be, and from the moment our blue gazes met, sparks flew. What I initially intended to be a single steamy night together turned into a scorching two week road trip to New Orleans with a sassy-mouthed blonde.

I planned to walk away unchanged. But it was more. Feelings I never intended to have got involved, and I’ll never be the same. Yet, I still walked away. Except now I’m injured and my outlook has changed. Priorities have become clear. And I’m going back to reclaim her…to show her that together we can make the fire between us burst into flames.
