   I just finished Tougher in Texas and I’m am searching for your other books in the series. Totally enjoyed the book and the knowledge behind it. My horse Beau and I spend a lot of time trail riding and working in the arena. Unfortunately since COVID it is harder to find shows to attend, but we still love doing it even if there are no judges around!
