About Beyond Eight Seconds
|
JD McCall lives his life fast and focused on exactly what’s in front of him: the next woman, the next drink, the next eight seconds on a rank bull. As best man in his brother’s wedding, JD scoffs at the idea of love—where’s the fun in that? The one good thing about the wedding is Everly Mitchell, the maid of honor—a tall, gorgeous, feisty redhead who hails all the way from New York City.
When the National Bull Rider tour leads JD to the big city, he saddles up with Ev, who ends up dealing him an even faster lifestyle than his own, full of lights, cameras, and plenty of action. Now on Ev’s concrete turf, JD realizes a simple bull rider is no match for a savvy businesswoman. Beyond Eight Seconds is the newest adventure in the In the Reins series, includes all of Green Briar’s herd members, and continues the love stories found in In the Reins, Cowboy Away, and Show Pen Promise. |

Carly Kade writes in a genre very close to her heart. She’s taken her love of horses and her life as an equestrian and parlayed that into a writing career.
Show notes include:
How writing about a passion automatically lends authenticity to a book, the importance of educating oneself about intellectual property and its value, creating a community of authors in the same small but growing sub-genre, how a small niche can help, not hinder, marketing, and how to get more written in every busy day.

Alta Mira Horsemanship: Catching Up With Carly Kade + In the Reins Book Review
Get Lost in a World of Horses, Cowboys, and Second Chances: In the Reins is somewhat of a departure from my usual realm of non-fiction reading. I loved getting lost in Devon’s transformation as she faced her need for change head-on. She pursued her new life so tenaciously, in spite of uncertainty and doubt.
What’s more, I loved the complexity of each of the characters, JD the reckless yet tender-hearted bull rider, McKennon the strong and intuitive cowboy, and Sophia, the matriarch and Devon’s confidant and guardian angel throughout the novel. I would recommend this to any equestrian who loves getting lost in a great story { ... }

Carly Kade is a lifelong equestrian who rides and shows her beautiful paint mare (if you doubt me, checkout her pics on Carly’s website — will link below) in western pleasure. She also features western pleasure and breed shows (quarter horse & paint) in her series and I appreciate this setting!

Beverly Cleary once said, “If you don’t see the book you want on the shelves, write it.” I think I’ve read everything in existence about horses, cowboys and romance. There are a lot of equestrian novels out there focused on dressage or jumping or rodeo, but I haven’t found many that focus on Western pleasure competitive horse showing at breed shows like the Quarter Horse, Paint, Pinto or the Palomino Horse Circuits. I wanted to read a love story themed around the type of horse shows I enjoyed competing in, so I wrote “In the Reins” and now its sequel [ ... ]
