The Prodigal Son

I’ve been alone long enough.As a chart-topping country singer, I’m living the dream.While my family is all back in Austin, embracing their happily-ever-afters, I’m on the road on a sold-out tour.I should feel ecstatic, yet all I am is lonely.Maybe that’s why I find myself drawn to a fan who pops up at one of my shows.Something about the way he watches me on stage has me thinking...he knows my secret.And after the first kiss, I can’t seem to let him go.But Jensen Miles has some secrets of his own:He isn’t just a regular fan. He’s a preacher.And not just any preacher—the new preacher at my dad’s church.Where I come from, preachers don’t have filthy mouths and dirty hookups, let alone with a male country singer.But Jensen has scars like mine. They just run deeper.We can’t stay away from each other, though. One night turns into nearly every city of the tour; the two of us sneak around backstage, onto tour buses, and in hotel rooms.And while I’ve never been happier...I’m tired of hiding.With Jensen, I might be able to escape the monsters from my past—even if the scariest one has just been set free.With Jensen, we can outrun our demons together.With Jensen, I’m finally ready to come home.
