Stingray

By SD Sampley

Mattie Larkin's life is turned upside down when a tragic car crash claims her father and forces her beloved rodeo horse into retirement. With a college scholarship dangling by a thread, her mother presents an unexpected lifeline in the form of an abused mare on the brink of being sent to slaughter.

When the recently crowned Rodeo National Champion, Eli Clayton, seeks solace on their family farm after a life altering accident, everything changes.

While Mattie is determined to use the traditional training methods bestowed by her father, Eli introduces unconventional techniques that challenge her perceptions. Guided by his unwavering belief in her abilities, a fragile bond forms between the two, rooted in shared pain and unguarded moments.

In this Sweet Romance, Mattie discovers that sometimes the most profound connections aren't written by courage alone. They're forged on understanding and compassion.
