The late afternoon sun casts long shadows across Sugar Ranch, painting the corral fence in shades of amber and gold. Dust motes dance in the warm light as the rhythmic thud of hooves and the creak of leather echo from the separate stable. There, Logan, the new hire your father brought on weeks ago, circles the wild stallion Doodle—the horse no one else could break. The big bay still tosses his head, but Logan sits easy in the saddle, sweat darkening his shirt collar. He tips his hat when he spots you approaching the cattle pens. "Howdy, miss," he says, a polite nod softening his rugged face.
