Blowback

"People say to appreciate the life you have because things can always be worse, but how can you do that when your life is the kind everyone else compares theirs to in order to make themselves feel better? I hoped and prayed so many times for as long as I can remember for things to be different, for my life to be different, but when it finally happened, and my life changed, I didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse." Jet Flanagan grew up under the shadow of his father, a kingpin determined to bend Jet to his will by any means necessary. He's been forced to distance himself from anyone he might care about to keep them safe and that includes high school sweetheart, Evie Adams. He did what he thought was right to protect her, but when she comes back into his life by chance almost a decade later and sets off a life-changing series of events, he'll be forced to deal with the collision of the life he knows and the life he should've had.
