Book Launch and Signing with Local Author Johny Weber
Join us at Henry’s Books in Spearfish, SD on Saturday November 23 from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM for the launch and signing of Johny’s newest title, “The Rodeo Road”. She will have copies of her previous works as well that feature themes and locations in Wyoming, South Dakota, and Colorado.
About the book:
In the dust and grit of the rodeo circuit, rookie barrel racer Kasey Jacobs is determined to carve out a new life after her world crumbles. With her home lost and her family shattered, the thrill of the chase becomes her only solace as she navigates the treacherous terrain of the rodeo lifestyle, leaning on her two horses as her steadfast companions. But the road is filled with obstacles, and Kasey must muster the strength and resilience to chase victory on her own.
Enter Cole Sanders, a weathered veteran of the rodeo circuit, whose dreams of glory dance just out of reach. With twelve years in the saddle, qualifying for the National Finals Rodeo eight times, he enters each event battling the relentless pressure of youth and injury. As he fights to secure his legacy before time runs out, Cole embarks on a personal journey to claim the triumph he’s long desired.
As fate entwines Kasey and Cole's paths, two unlikely souls at opposite ends of their careers find themselves sharing the same rodeo road. Will Kasey's fierce determination ignite Cole's fading passion, or will his experience anchor her down? In a world where friendship, ambition, and courage collide, The Rodeo Road explores the heart of the cowboy spirit—a testament to resilience, the power of connection, and the beauty of chasing dreams against all odds.
Can they both find victory, or will the unforgiving nature of the rodeo prove too great a challenge? Saddle up for a journey filled with heart, hardship, and hope.
