Yellowstone: Eight Seconds Back
18-year-old Sawyer Dutton was born to ride. Raised on grit, whiskey logic, and Dutton pride, she was one of the youngest female riders to ever go pro-chasing PBR dreams with JB Mauney as her coach and mentor. But one wreck changed everything. A career-threatening ride at the Fort Worth Finals leaves her broken-physically and mentally. A shattered femur. A TBI. And worse-time. Time to think, doubt, and question everything she thought made her... her. Now back at the Yellowstone, Sawyer has to face a truth no Dutton ever wants to admit: she's scared. Of the bull. Of the silence. Of never being the girl who once stood in an arena and made 2,000 pounds of fury look like a dance partner. But with JB pushing her from the sidelines, Rip refusing to let her wallow, and Beth reminding her that Duttons don't quit-they evolve-Sawyer must decide if she'll fight her way back... ...or learn to live without the ride. This fic was inspired by a conversation with @nyraapologist and our shared obsession with bull riding, JB Mauney, and emotional recovery arcs. Sawyer is a tribute to every girl who's been thrown hard and had to crawl back up again-bloody, bruised, and still full of fire. Featuring JB as her mentor, Beth & Rip as her foundation, and the raw edge of the rodeo world-this one's got grit, heart, and dust in its veins.Complete

Yellowstone: The Silence Between Screams
Cassidy was a ghost before the Duttons found her-barely seventeen, all scars and silence, with no record of her existence before age five. She doesn't speak of where she came from. But when Rip Wheeler stumbles across her on the edge of the ranch, bleeding and half-conscious, he brings her back-against every instinct but one: protect her. What begins as a reluctant act of mercy turns into something deeper as the Duttons start unraveling the truth. Cassidy's file, pulled by Jamie, reveals a history soaked in horror-sealed hospital records, sterilization at thirteen, SA reports, forced silence by the system, and a father among her abusers. She was supposed to disappear. She didn't. Now, the Dutton Ranch becomes more than just a place to heal. It becomes a battleground for Cassidy's survival, and maybe... her redemption. But healing isn't quiet. It's angry. It's raw.
