Racing Hearts. Good Sports, #2

Riley Hunter was the dependable one. The good girl, loyal to a fault and faithful to the end. She'd had big dreams, once upon a time, until her grandfather got sick and she had to give up going away to college to care for him. Now, a year after his passing, Riley is a townie through and through, doing social media for a local realtor and happy with her daily grind. Or, at least, content. Content, that is, until she literally runs into her old high school crush during her morning jog one random weekday in the middle of May.
The morning jog they used to run together, before Piper left three years ago, that is. Left without looking back. Piper McPhee couldn't wait to leave tiny Jasper, North Carolina. To run away from her abusive mother. Her dysfunctional home life. Her cloying friends and, most of all, her confused feeling about girls. And how much she adored them. The only thing she regretted leaving behind was Riley, sweet, sexy Riley.
Her first and only female crush. But after three years at State, and a recent avalanche of failed romances, she can't wait to come back to town. More specifically, come back to Riley. As the two girls pick up their old habit of running together every morning, they struggle to reconnect and realize it's because they're no longer friends. Or, at least, just friends. And in the days to come they'll connect in ever increasing ways, becoming lovers at long last and realizing just how much they've missed by denying their feelings for far too long.
And, happily, making up for lost time one scintillating tryst at a time.
