Returning Your love

Career-ending injury.The most dream-crushing words I've ever heard. Goodbye NFL's Rookie of the Year title I fought for since I was a kid, hello return to my small-town origins and wallow in unrequited love. Seeing my best friend Chaz married and trying for a baby will hurt worse than any torn ACL.But things have changed since I escaped Pippen Creek-Chaz flounders beneath financial burdens and emotional turmoil instead of living his happily ever after. Friendship takes precedence over longing, and I gladly take on the roles of comforter and supporter since those who have the right to love him out loud only see his failures. However, the more time I spend with Chaz, the harder it is to hide my feelings. In a moment of mutual weakness, unexpected passion ignites. Secret betrayal is a poisonous infection, but a twist of fate uncovers even more truths that further wound us both.Will forgiveness allow us to survive traumatic grief and overcome guilt? Or will too much honesty end the other dream of always that has owned my heart since childhood?
