Romancing the Bull Rider — Cassandra Carr

*****This book was previously titled Velocity. It has a new cover and a new title, as it was previously published by another publisher.*****

Paolo D'Allesandro has been living in his older brother Marco's shadow. But he's getting older now and realizing he and Marco don't want the same things. He's not sure what his next step is, but knows he needs to quit riding to figure it out.
Savannah Harrington is a grad student working on a thesis about adrenaline junkies, and she's joined the bull riders' tour to study the men and their motivation to willingly take part in a dangerous sport. She meets Paolo and both feel an instant connection. She can't stay away from the sexy Italian and his mind-numbing skills in the bedroom, but knows the relationship can't last.
Both wish their circumstances were different, but Paolo doesn't think he has anything to offer Savannah, and Savannah doesn't want to pressure Paolo into another life decision that will make someone else happy, but not fulfill him. As her time to go back to school draws closer, they need to figure out how to get their highest score yet -- in the game of love.
