Rodeo Queen: Tragedy, Triumph & Tequila (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798654238849)

Kaitlin suffered through a miserable childhood, a failed marriage, and breast cancer, and now, struggling with heartbreak and self-doubt, she turns to the only people she's ever trusted; her four best high school friends and her horses.Being crowned Rodeo Queen was the happiest day of her life, and although it's been 25 years, she needs her friends now more than ever, but will they be there for her? Vowing to recapture the magic of happier times, these high school best friends reunite for an epic backcountry horseback adventure, but the rugged terrain of the Los Padres National Forest can be tough and unforgiving. For five days these former friends reunite to reminisce and hopefully rekindle friendships let go much too easily, but can they survive the wilderness and each other?Although life has taken them in different directions, they all ended up in the same place - unhappy and searching for something better. Each at a crossroads, they've all come on the ride for different reasons; some escaping lies, others seeking truths, and others for reasons they aren't ready to admit. The group of long-ago girlfriends easily picks up where they left off, joking, laughing and teasing, but old hurts quickly flare and personalities clash, raising tensions to a dangerous level. Horses are an accident looking for a place to happen, and when you add two rusty, out of shape riders, a professional barrel racer with a 25 year old chip on her shoulder, an overachieving, type A+ real estate broker, and a former rodeo queen, the challenges are greater than they expected, as mishaps and accidents push everyone to their limits - and beyond.They say the outside of a horse is good for the inside of a man, but for these women, the connection they create with the horses changes them forever. In this story of friendship, acceptance, and renewal, five women confront the lies and insecurities keeping them from discovering hidden passions and finding true happiness. Can they start a new life and make better decisions or will they realize there are no second chances? It will be a ride to remember, if they survive.
