by Phyllis KerrPublish: Nov 15, 2020Romance Western Romance Book Overview
Eighteen year old Sugar Wylie, daughter of cattle baron Quint Wylie, is the apple of her daddy's eye. Abandoned by her mother at the tender age of four, her father made sure she learned everything important about ranching and surviving on the plains of 1872 Central Texas 35 miles outside of Fort Worth, in a frontier town Texans referred to as "where the west begins." Sugar grew up with a six shooter on her hip that she could handle as good as any gunslinger. She rode her jet black Arabian stallion across her vast holdings as good as any cowboy could sit his mount. She wrangled cattle as good as any wrangler in Hood County. And she could keep up with any hunting party her daddy took her on. He made sure she knew what she needed to carry on his legacy when the time came except for one problem. She didn't like the man he had selected to be her husband. He was the perfect match. His family owned the spread adjacent to Quint's and when the two children inherited, they would own the largest cattle ranch in the state, not to mention owning the bank in town. Who wouldn't be happy with that? Sugar could create the Wylie Dynasty that would live on in his name. At fourteen years old, Sugar was the perfect daughter married to the perfect son-in-law. She wanted to be the living legacy of her daddy, but for some reason the thought of such a lofty endeavor sometimes brought on an overwhelming feeling of weakness that left her frozen with panic. In her world of alpha males and hearth tending females, she embarks upon a journey to find out why her life isn't working out for her and what she can do to fix it setting off a chain of events that shocks everyone, especially herself. Sugar persists against frightening odds and finds out that sometimes life's most important lessons are scary and they force themselves on you when you least expect it.
