Carolina goes home to her family ranch in Texas for the summer from college. She is expecting a fairly peaceful summer minus her daily arguments with her Ma. Her summer starts to unravel when her boyfriend, Cope, picks up rodeoing. Carolina used to spend every weekend roping at rodeos but hasn't stepped foot near a rodeo ever since what happened last summer. At the first rodeo of the summer Carolina runs into an "old friend," Lukas. The run-in causes Carolina's flashbacks from last summer to begin again and starts to draw her closer to Lukas, but not without Cope noticing. The summer ends up taking a devastating turn and is far from anything Carolina could have predicted; filled with confusion, sorrow, desperation, and reconciliation. Leaving Carolina with hard decisions to make, no matter the answer will leave someone disappointed.
TW: Themes of sexual assault and suicide are mentioned.

Southern Charm
Jessie White stands out from the crowd. As a Southern woman, she defies the typical expectations. While others her age are embarking on new careers, Jessie's upbringing on a ranch alongside four brothers equipped her with skills many would balk at. She's adept at horseback riding, calving, stall cleaning, and more. Fiercely independent, Jessie refuses to rely on any man, a resolve hardened after heartbreak at the hands of Max Lane, a rancher's son, two years prior. Jessie has resolved to take up bull riding, a skill that appears to be a family legacy. Her lifelong dream has been to ride a bull before an audience, but now, her ambition has shifted to rescuing the White Family Ranch after a substantial portion of their funds vanished and debts began accumulating. Max Lane's family is eager to buy the White Family Ranch, but Jessie refuses to let him take away the one thing that sustains her. Being a beauty bartender owner and a female bull rider makes things challenging. Everyone says she can't do it because she's a woman, but Jessie is determined to prove them all wrong. Initially skeptical, Trace Black doesn't recognize her potential until he witnesses her mount a bull for the first time. Although he may appear arrogant externally, that pales in comparison to his internal complexity. Trace and Jessie are initially oblivious to their chemistry, though it's evident to everyone around them. As Jessie gathers the courage to express her feelings to Trace, the things she dreads occur. However, it doesn't make matters worse; it alters everything profoundly. *WARNING* Book contains language, child loss, trauma, etc. Thank you for choosing my story!
