The Inheritance by Midnighthunger

What's it like to be the successful twin? Ryan wouldn't know. His brother, Teague, is a decorated physical therapist and army veteran, with a loving wife and daughter to boot. Meanwhile, Ryan's life is simpler-he works as a ranch foreman and spends his days with his horse. It's not the prestigious life his parents envisioned, but it suits him just fine. Or at least, it used to. Mae was born to be a rancher's wife-sweet, docile, obedient. Raised to fulfill the submissive role expected of her, she always believed her future would be simple. But at twenty-four, still uncollared and burdened with responsibilities she never imagined, Mae's life has become anything but. With her father growing weaker by the day, she is thrust into a world of pressure, managing the ranch and caring for her mother. And with her father's death looming, Mae faces a new and terrifying reality: the inheritance is the only thing standing between her family and danger, but as a submissive, she's not supposed to be in charge of anything. As Ryan and Mae's lives intersect, they'll have to navigate a world where power and control aren't always as clear as they seem-and where survival may mean breaking every rule they've ever known.

The Paralyzed Dream (COMPLETED) by Cowgirl1515

Lacey Anne Ferry grew up on a cattle ranch in Montana where riding horses was an everyday part of her life. She loved the horses, cattle, and the hard work that came with living on a working ranch. In the little free time that she had, Lacey rodeoed. When she wasn't running barrels, she was roping; when she wasn't roping, she was pole bending; when she wasn't pole bending, she was cutting...the list went on. Lacey Ferry was the one cowgirl that everyone wanted to beat. She was phenomenal at every rodeo event that she competed in. Everything that was familiar to Lacey came crashing down around her when a freak barrel racing accident left her paralyzed from the waist down...and terrified of horses. Two things that she never thought she'd be. Instead of being outside almost 24/7 like she was before her accident, Lacey now refuses to leave the house. The doctors say that Lacey will never be able to walk, rodeo, or even ride a horse ever again. New ranch hand, Chet Slade Reid, "Slade," sets out to show Lacey that that stuff doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. Can Slade help Lacey to get her confidence and love for horses back, or will her accident have left her too scarred to "get back on the horse" and "cowgirl up"? Slade was hired as a ranch hand, but as he sets out to help Lacey get the courage to ride again, he finds himself attracted to her. Despite his growing affection for her, Slade's dark past keeps him from telling Lacey his true feelings for her. Lacey sets aside her own insecurities to comfort Slade when a person from his past resurfaces. With God's help, will Slade and Lacey be able to live in the present but look forward to the future, or will they stay paralyzed in the past?
