A Small town in outback New south wales where the going is tough isn't just for the faint of heart. It for the wild and kindred spirits that know the ways of the land like the back of their hand. It's for the people who enjoy the lonely roads and whistling of the wind. Good thing Kodi Myers fits that.
Kodi Myers is an 18 year old, freshly graduated girl who was purely just trying to find her way in the world and where she belonged. Colten Haighs was a 21 year old who was trying to make Kodi let him in. Because whats more cliche than a guy falling for his best friends little sister, but who would've guessed said little sister had fallen for her brothers best friend to....
NOTE - Updates will be slow, but hopefully they'll be big updates. This story doesn't follow any set town, so I'm making one up for the sake of this story. It has difficult topics of things like little mentions of Suicide and also some depression here and there but nothing terrible.

Saddles & Starlight
Maren Grace Walker thought her life had already been rewritten. At seventeen, a bone cancer diagnosis stole her rodeo dreams and left her clinging to what she could still hold: her family, her ranch, and the horses that carried her through the darkest days. Now in her early thirties, Maren's settled into the rhythm of ranch life alongside her dad. She doesn't expect much to change. Until Glen Powell, her brother's friend she grew up trailing after, comes back home to Texas. He remembers her as a kid with braids and big belt buckles. She's not that girl anymore. And Glen isn't just the boy who used to tease her, either. He's a movie star with the kind of smile that can undo a girl in a heartbeat, and the kind of man with baggage that Maren swore she'd never take on. What starts as stolen glances and banter under the wide Texas sky begins to stir something neither of them expected. But with Glen's world pulling him back to Hollywood and Maren's roots sunk deep in the ranch, the question lingers: Can saddles and starlight hold them together, or are they destined to ride in different directions?
The Paralyzed Dream (COMPLETED)
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?Complete

His southern beauty
After getting in trouble for the millionth time, Landon's mother makes the decision to ship him off to Montana to stay with his father for the summer. The thought of spending those long, sweltering days in the middle of nowhere, far from the comforts of city life-complete with relentless heat, annoying bugs, and the occasional wild animal-was far from what Landon had envisioned for his summer break. But as fate would have it, he wasn't prepared for what lay ahead, especially not for meeting Clementine. As Landon steps out of the dinner, he notices a group of boys. And one of them hops off the truck's hood, his mischievous smile lighting up a face. "Looky here, we got us a city boy," he mocks, sizing Landon up with a scrutinizing gaze. Landon feels the defiance sparking within him. "A city boy that can whoop your ass," he retorts, his voice stead. He squares his shoulders. "Guys, leave him alone," a voice cuts through the tension as a dark-skinned beauty jumps out of the truck, her presence commanding the group's attention. Landon's gaze drifts toward her, and he can't help but take her in fully from her slicked-back curly hair to her dusty boots that tell stories of their own. There's a fierce spark in her eyes, as if she can see right through him-confronting any lingering uncertainty he has about being here. He watches her engage with the boys, still keeping an eye on the one that spoke. Suddenly, the summer landscape doesn't feel so indifferent, and the oppressive heat seems a little less daunting. Maybe this summer won't be so bad after all.Complete
