PhoenixI was the best bronc rider on the circuit, but being openly bisexual wasn’t an option unless I wanted my talent overshadowed by my orientation. I thought I was the only one keeping my cards close to my chest, until our eyes met across the bonfire, and I knew he shared the same secret I did. Walker DeVille may have bested me in the ring that night, but I’d give him a ride he’d never forget.And then he lied.And that lie cost me everything. When Walker turns back up in my life, there’s no denying that same electrifying chemistry is there, but I learned my lesson, and where the fire once burned, there’s nothing left but ashes.WalkerThe first time I saw Phoenix Harding ride, I was smitten. But cowboys like me aren’t supposed to feel the way I do about other men. That’s the unspoken rule. The expectation. The understanding if you find yourself in my shoes. So, when Phoenix followed me into the darkness, away from the fire, I knew he knew what I was hiding.Part of it at least.One night with him gave me the wings I needed to soar above the guilt trying to drag me down.But my salvation cost him everything. And when I have nowhere else to turn years later, it’s Phoenix who saves me yet again. He’s adamant that I blew our only chance…that nothing remains between us.But he’s wrong.He watched us burn, and now he’ll watch as we rise from the ashes.
