In the quiet village of San Miguel Topilejo, Mexico, the Betancourt family land is more than a stretch of soil; it is a legacy bound by blood, sacrifice, and betrayal. When Angela Betancourt, the last of her generation, passes away, she leaves her son, Javier, as the sole heir of her land and fortune. But returning from California to reclaim his inheritance, Javier finds that his sister, Lucia, has already staked a dubious claim on the land, backed by falsified documents and a bitter resolve.

As Javier navigates the twisted paths of legal battles and family secrets, he uncovers something more painful than stolen property. In hushed whispers and broken memories, he learns of the life his mother endured in her final years-a life marred by isolation, neglect, and cruelty at the hands of the very sister he once trusted.

Bound by a promise to his mother and haunted by the shadows of the past, Javier is determined to reclaim not only his inheritance but the truth hidden within the land itself. In a place where love and betrayal are sown in equal measure, Javier must decide how far he is willing to go to honor his family's name-and to expose the secrets that lie buried in the soil of San Miguel Topilejo.

Jessie White stands out from the crowd. As a Southern woman, she defies the typical expectations. While others her age are embarking on new careers, Jessie's upbringing on a ranch alongside four brothers equipped her with skills many would balk at. She's adept at horseback riding, calving, stall cleaning, and more. Fiercely independent, Jessie refuses to rely on any man, a resolve hardened after heartbreak at the hands of Max Lane, a rancher's son, two years prior. Jessie has resolved to take up bull riding, a skill that appears to be a family legacy. Her lifelong dream has been to ride a bull before an audience, but now, her ambition has shifted to rescuing the White Family Ranch after a substantial portion of their funds vanished and debts began accumulating. Max Lane's family is eager to buy the White Family Ranch, but Jessie refuses to let him take away the one thing that sustains her. Being a beauty bartender owner and a female bull rider makes things challenging. Everyone says she can't do it because she's a woman, but Jessie is determined to prove them all wrong. Initially skeptical, Trace Black doesn't recognize her potential until he witnesses her mount a bull for the first time. Although he may appear arrogant externally, that pales in comparison to his internal complexity. Trace and Jessie are initially oblivious to their chemistry, though it's evident to everyone around them. As Jessie gathers the courage to express her feelings to Trace, the things she dreads occur. However, it doesn't make matters worse; it alters everything profoundly. *WARNING* Book contains language, child loss, trauma, etc. Thank you for choosing my story!
