But rebuilding isn't easy. Especially with a wealthy, white-owned rival rink circling like vultures, waiting to bury them.

But as the lines blur between duty and vengeance, love and manipulation, both must navigate a twisted web of betrayal, power, and a truth that could shatter everything. As their paths collide again, both will have to choose between the past that shaped them-and a future that might just ruin them.

Roped by Her Ride by KyaKraft22

Hudson Tate is a first-class bull rider with a chip on his shoulder and a long-standing rule-never trust a city girl. After too many broken promises and one too many high heels in the dirt, he's earned his reputation as the rodeo circuit's most irresistible player-and its most guarded heart. Then comes Callie Monroe, a top-ranked barrel racer with a sleek look and a city-girl reputation that rubs Hudson the wrong way from the start. She's too polished, too confident, and too good at pretending she doesn't care what people think. Hudson can't stand her-until he starts noticing the calluses on her hands, the way she trains her horse before dawn, and how she talks about the land like she grew up breathing it. Turns out, Callie isn't who he thought she was. Raised on a dusty ranch and shoved into city life by family pressure, she's spent years fighting to prove she belongs back in the saddle-and not in some glass tower. As tensions turn to sparks, Hudson is forced to face the one thing he's avoided his entire life: letting someone in. But with both their careers on the line and past wounds refusing to heal, will love be enough to rope in a cowboy who's always ridden solo?

Hooves on the Heart: Book 1 Start of Steele by kbfoster01

The Fagan family has always loved horses, and now they're making their lifelong dream a reality-starting a horse farm in Tennessee, specializing in race-bred Quarter Horses and Thoroughbreds. The family consists of Mr. and Mrs. Fagan and their five children: fifteen-year-old Khloe, fourteen-year-old Noel, eight-year-old Nathan, and five-year-old twins Allie and Ariah. Khloe is heartbroken about leaving her home and friends in Kentucky, but the excitement of owning a horse farm-especially the chance to have a horse of her own-makes the move easier. She has dreamed of this moment for as long as she can remember. But there's one problem: her family's budget is tight, and they can only afford to buy mares for their breeding and training program. While accompanying her dad to a horse auction, Khloe stumbles upon a stunning dapple-gray Quarter Horse mare-her dream horse. But this mare isn't just wild-she's been abused, broken, and has lost all trust in humans. Now, Khloe faces two challenges: convincing her dad to buy the mare and, if she succeeds, proving to the frightened horse that they are meant to be. But with a horse this damaged, the journey won't be easy. Can Khloe earn the mare's trust, or will someone get hurt in the process?

Honesty with the truth of lies by jontaedem

Zoey never planned on wearing a crown-she only planned on stealing one. The palace was supposed to be her biggest con yet: win the Prince's heart, play the perfect bride, and disappear with more riches than she could count. But between the Queen's sharp suspicion, a shadowy figure sneaking through royal halls, and a masked voice whispering threats through her phone, the game is getting far more dangerous than she bargained for. And then there's Tae-her only ally, her biggest headache, and maybe the only man who actually cares if she lives long enough to pull this off. The closer the wedding gets, the deeper Zoey finds herself tangled in lies, secrets, and enemies who are always one step ahead. But she isn't giving up. Not when she's this close. Because in the palace of England... love might be a trap, loyalty might be a lie, and survival might just cost everything. ⸻ Hope you enjoy 😊
