Book Description
**Winner of the 2021 Montana Book Award** **Winner of the 2021 New Mexico-Arizona General Nonfiction Book Award** **Finalist for the Spur Award for Best Contemporary Nonfiction** **A New York Times Editors' Choice Pick** "A heart-stomping, heart-stopping read. Unsentimental. Unforgettable. Astonishing. Brothers on Three captures the roar of a community spirit powered by blood history, loyalty, and ferocious love." —Debra Magpie Earling, author of Perma Red From journalist Abe Streep, a story of coming-of-age on a reservation in the American West and a team uniting a community March 11, 2017, was a night to remember: in front of the hopeful eyes of thousands of friends, family members, and fans, the Arlee Warriors would finally bring the high school basketball state championship title home to the Flathead Indian Reservation. The game would become the stuff of legend, with the boys revered as local heroes. The team’s place in Montana history was now cemented, but for starters Will Mesteth, Jr. and Phillip Malatare, life would keep moving on—senior year was just beginning. In Brothers on Three, we follow Phil and Will, along with their teammates, coaches, and families, as they balance the pressures of adolescence, shoulder the dreams of their community, and chart their own individual courses for the future. Brothers on Three is not simply a story about high school basketball, state championships, and a winning team. It is a book about community, and it is about boys on the cusp of adulthood finding their way through the intersecting worlds they inhabit and forging their own paths to personhood.

Not everyone in Sweetwater Springs, however, is happy about her arrival. Samantha's neighbor, Wyatt Thompson, insists she has no idea what she's taking on--with the ranch or with the neglected boys she's adopted. Though she can't deny her attraction to Wyatt, Samantha intends to succeed on her own terms.

Book Description
Some rules are meant to be broken... One night in college is all it took to change everything, to destroy my life as I knew it ... all at the hands of my brother. I walked away from the aftermath, never looking back, regretting nothing. Seven years later, we're thrust back together following the tragic death of our father. All the loathing and hatred bubbles to the surface again when an ultimatum is woven into the last will and testament; work alongside him for a year and repair our tarnished relationship or risk losing our entire inheritance. Having no other choice, I pack up my life in Manhattan, leave my swanky penthouse, and fly to a small town in Montana armed with only my Armani suits and cocky attitude. Reconciling with my brother is the least of my worries when I meet Savannah, 'Savy', Martin. The sassy archery trainer is hellbent on turning me into a cowboy despite my obvious aversion to anything outdoorsy. Falling for her country charm and sharp wit should be out of the question considering she's best friends with my brother, but after one fiery kiss, my tightly wound reservations and edicts disintegrate in a cloud of dust. But when the past doesn't stay in the past, and relationships are tested, will love be enough to save us? In this small-town romance, secrets and unbridled passion are unleashed directly into the wild, wild west, setting all the rules on fire.

Down from the Mountain

Category : Biography & Autobiography

Pages : 293
Book Description
"Andrews' wonderful Down from the Mountain is deeply informed by personal experience and made all the stronger by his compassion and measured thoughts... Welcome and impressive work." --Barry Lopez Winner of the Banff Mountain Book Competition's Mountain Environment & Natural History Award The story of a grizzly bear named Millie: her life, death, and cubs, and what they reveal about the changing character of the American West The grizzly is one of North America's few remaining large predators. Their range is diminished, but they're spreading across the West again. Descending into valleys where once they were king, bears find the landscape they'd known for eons utterly changed by the new most dominant animal: humans. As the grizzlies approach, the people of the region are wary, at best, of their return. In searing detail, award-winning writer, Montana rancher, and conservationist Bryce Andrews tells us about one such grizzly. Millie is a typical mother: strong, cunning, fiercely protective of her cubs. But raising those cubs--a challenging task in the best of times--becomes ever harder as the mountains change, the climate warms and people crowd the valleys. There are obvious dangers, like poachers, and subtle ones as well, like the corn field that draws her out of the foothills and sets her on a path toward trouble and ruin. That trouble is where Bryce's story intersects with Millie's. It is the heart of Down from the Mountain, a singular drama evoking a much larger one: an entangled, bloody collision between two species in the modern-day West, where the shrinking wilds force man and bear into ever closer proximity.
