The Secret Life of Cowboys
Author: Tom Groneberg
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1416593241
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
"One of the stories I tell myself when I am trying to fall asleep is that I have tried. I've tagged along after myself in the pages of my own modern Western, and every few years is another chapter to the story. The myth of the cowboy. I chased a dream and it kicked me in the teeth. Yet I find myself falling for it again and again." Across the rugged and beautiful landscape of the contemporary American West, Tom Groneberg paints an unsparing portrait of his flawed, funny, and sometimes triumphant efforts to become a cowboy. It is a classic tale: a young man, facing a future he doesn't want to claim, has an inspiration -- Go West. Leaving behind his friends and family, Groneberg follows his heart and heads to a resort town in the Colorado Rockies, where he earns his spurs as a wrangler leading tourists on horseback. Like an old saddle blanket, the tale unfolds, revealing the clean threads of a new story. Groneberg moves to Montana, working for wages at a number of ranches before getting a chance to become the owner of a sprawling ranch, fifteen square miles of grass and sky. In lean but passionate prose, Groneberg demystifies the image of cowboy as celluloid hero and introduces us to the tough and kindhearted men who teach him how to be a real cowboy, the woman who teaches him how to love, and their son, who teaches him how to be a man. The Secret Life of Cowboys is both a coming-of-age story as stunning as the land itself and a revealing look at America's last frontier.

Home is where God’s heart is. —Mountain Home Amish proverb All her life, Ruby Wengerd has felt the eyes of the two Mountain Home Amish churches on her.

And now that she’s in her twenties, choose one of the valley’s young men pursuing her and make a godly home. But she doesn’t want to make a home with anyone but Amish cowboy Zach Miller. She’s loved him for as long as she can remember—and he only sees her as a friend. Zach has watched his brothers and sisters fall in love while he comes no closer to finding the one God means for him. At this rate, his infant sister will grow up and get married before he does. But at a Christmas wedding on their Montana ranch, a stunning realization makes the scales fall from his eyes. It’s as if he’s seeing Ruby, his childhood friend, for the very first time. As the woman he’s been waiting for. As his heart’s home. But Ruby may already have given up on him. The Amish grapevine is abuzz with speculation that she has been swept off her feet by a man from away and might even leave the valley. Is Zach really too late to court the Amish girl next door? The Montana Millers. They believe in faith, family, and the land. They’ll need all three when love comes to the Circle M! The Amish Cowboy’s Home is the sixth book in the Amish Cowboys of Montana romance series. Though the books can be read as standalones, there is a family thread running through them all. No strong language, just a loving kiss and a guaranteed happily ever after. If you like books by Samantha Price, Amy Lillard, or Grace Lewis, you're in the right place. Enjoy!
