The Final Ride
2016
With her duties for her best friend’s wedding finally behind her, Patricia Talbert looks forward to discovering what “normal” will look like at her new home in Texas. She owns a ranch now, is in love with its foreman, and is ready to assume her duties. Discovering what those duties entail isn’t an easy feat for a displaced socialite from Manhattan.
But when her aunt Adele arrives on a mission to bring her back to New York by hook or by crook, Patricia’s primary duty is to deflect the bumbling and bullish attempts–until one of Adele’s tricks takes her by surprise.
All of Talon Carlson’s dreams for the Circle Bar Ranch are coming true, along with another dream he never expected to be fulfilled–a chance to love again. Patricia is everything he ever wanted and more, but he made a promise to her not to ride bulls again, a promise he may have to break.
His desire for a better end to his riding career is intensified by vicious rumors about why he quit. If he rides again, he may provide the ammunition Adele needs to make Patricia leave. If he doesn’t, he’ll prove the gossips right.
Patricia or Talon. Which one will take The Final Ride?

Currently on her office brag wall are finalists plaques for the Genesis, Carol, and Selah awards, along with winner- and grand-prize-winner plaques for her short story "Slider," which won an honorable mention in Saturday Evening Posts' 2016 Great American Fiction Contest. A self-described nut, she says, "I keep my feet candy-coated, because there's no telling when one or both will land in my mouth." Candy flavor of choice? "Peppermint. Chocolate melts too fast."
