I have a secret.

I’m Kentucky Derby royalty, and I am absolutely terrified of horses.

It started after I was bucked off as a teen. I was injured, and when I left the hospital and went back home to my dad’s ranch, I refused to go anywhere near the barns or animals.

Now that his health is deteriorating though, I know that it’s time for me to face my fears so that I can take over for him.

So, I book myself a private session at a dude ranch where no one has heard of me. I figure it’s time to get back to the basics.

What I don’t count on is my intense attraction for my instructor.

Wyatt Ford is the hottest cowboy that I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen a lot of them. He’s kind and has a real way with the horses.

As the month progresses, he helps me face my fears, but when the 30 days are over, I find that I have a new fear.

Living without my patient cowboy.
