First Rodeo - Paperback

by Judith Hennessey (Author)

Kate, an attractive, thirty-something, workaholic, single mother, is in the business of pleasing others. At the top of her "yes" list is her sometimes surly and controlling boss: her father. But when a crisis at work spurs Kate to examine her life, she surprises everyone by taking her young son and heading where few high heels have ever gone: Wyoming, home to more cows than humans. There, at the Prickly Pear Ranch, she meets a young, sexy, bull rider, who's lived a lifetime in just over two decades. He's full of big dreams of training horses, and his passion fuels Kate's dormant dreams of becoming an artist, and sparks fly--and once again, Kate shocks everyone, even herself, and jumps on for the romantic ride of her life. Fast-paced and wildly entertaining, First Rodeo is filled with humorous scenes of city girl gone country, encounters with handsome cowboys, the struggles of the creative process, and a powerful message: the greatest love of all is the love you have for yourself.
