How
Liza became a bull riding fan.
When I broke up with the only decent boyfriend I ever
had, I was shocked, stunned, and broken hearted. He told me he was interested
in another woman, but he asked me to hang around until he decided which of us
he liked the best. Needless to say, I wasn’t happy with men and certainly never
planned to like one of them again after that fiasco.
So, I took up watching bull riding, just to watch the
fellows get roughed up by bulls three nights in a row each week.
As time moved along and my heart healed, I continued
watching bull riding because they were family now. Some I liked, some I adored,
and some I loved to see trampled.
What can I say? Watching bull riding can be
therapeutic after a painful break-up and enjoyable once you are healed as well.

Blurb
Davy
Hill goes from obscurity to fame by riding the rankest bull alive. Coming from
a life of poverty, the young cowboy expects his life to change for the better
now that he’s a successful professional bull-rider. Yet, with every occurrence
of good luck comes an equal dose of bad. He suffers a potentially career-ending
injury, a string of betrayals, and much worse. Despite all the brutal slams he
takes, he keeps getting up, because he’s a bull-rider and they never give up.
EXCERPT
Davy
Hill climbed in the rodeo chute and straddled the massive red Brangus bull, Son
of Sam—two thousand pounds of muscles and raging fury, and never ridden for
eight seconds in forty-eight outings. Riders only lasted an average 1.8 seconds
on this beast’s back. Then, to punish them for the audacity of attempting to
ride him, the red bull would turn on the fallen rider and attack with its
twelve-inch long horns.
The
owner had sawed off the tips, but that didn’t impede Son of Sam’s ability to
dig beneath the breathless rider and toss him like a rag doll about the arena
and then, for good measure, crash his sharp hooves on the rider’s limp body
several times. He especially had a taste for attacking the heads of riders who
wore helmets rather than hats. Beneath his two thousand pounds of energy, those
helmets would crush like pumpkins, often giving the rider a career-ending
concussion.
No
one in the excited Guthrie, Oklahoma crowd expected anything different tonight.
The only question in their minds was if Davy Hill would survive his encounter
with Son of Sam to ride again. Many regretted he had pulled a potential ride to
hell.
