Ride with Me

By Kelly Papyrus

Lisa is making headlines all over Houston as the first director of a popular rodeo, and she wants everything to go perfect. But leading man and star of the show Arturo insists he's a rider, not an actor, clashing with her directions and suggestions to make the show better at every turn. With opening night approaching, and Lisa and Arturo spending late nights working in close quarters, will hate turn into love?
