    About this ebook

    Luke McKenzie faces the challenge of riding 1200 pound bulls to hold onto his Texas ranch.

    After watching him ride in the Dodge City, Kansas rodeo, Amanda O'Conner has been challenged by "so-called" friends to get the attention of this special bull rider. Upon taking this challenge, she makes a self-discovery of the person she really is and what she really wants out of life.

    Luke discovers that his dreams can come true in and out of the rodeo arena. All he has to do is take a chance.

    Could this be only the beginning?
