Jaxon Lofton's life is a fragile balancing act, juggling the demands of single fatherhood with the pressures of his teaching career. Just when he thinks he has everything under control, the past comes crashing back in the form of Ameliah Wilkins-his estranged ex-fiancée, whose battles with alcoholism have kept her at a distance. Now, she's back and determined to reconnect with their six-year-old daughter. Jaxon is initially hesitant, torn between his protective instincts and the whiff of hope that Ameliah might truly want to change. As he wrestles with his emotions and the importance of their shared history, he reaches a pivotal decision: to give her a second chance, and in doing so, risk reopening old wounds while daring to dream of healing their fractured family.

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!

When her grandpa uproots them to move closer to family, her reasonably comfortable life is flipped into something that she doesn't know. Her cousin Daniel and his friends, Kyle, Dolan, Cooper, and the experiences she gains from being in their band, help teach her to see reality from more than a perspective of self-blame and pity, and more from the messiness and the beauty that is within it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ **trigger warning for talk of addiction/drugs, eating disorders, and mental illness** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Concluída
