Rebellious horse girl, Maci, just got her heart broken–but you should see the town bicycle’s nose. Good thing her best friend and cousin, former troublemaker, Bailey is there to bail her out of county lockup. Bailey thinks the two of them should get away to relax while the small town finds something else to gossip about. Trouble is, the Pinterest worthy glamping retreat may be a cover for something far more sinister. Straight-laced Jacoby has been assigned to an elite FBI task force. His team is closing in on the latest extremist militia suspected of kidnapping when a wild-eyed girl atop a loose horse crashes into him–literally. Securing her back at his base of operations proves to be troublesome as he, and the militiamen, quickly learn: You can’t keep a cowgirl hostage on a horse farm. Tropes: Wild Hearts, Horse Girl, Daring Escape, Kidnapped, Self Sacrifice, “We Can’t Leave Her Behind!” Refusing to comply, Law Enforcement, Small Town Gossip, Country Girl / City Boy

Image is a book graphic/promo... The background is a light blue formica table (like the kind from the 50s that you see in diners). Its like looking down on a table. In the upper right is a coffee ring, and to the right center is a white plate with a pile of blueberry pancakes smothered in butter and syrup. Under the plate is a white paper napkin with a font that looks like scrawled ink. It reads Mikey Hill 307-555- (and then cuts off). At the top in bold black serif font reads Meet the characters: Almost Like Magic. Under that, and to the left of the plate of pancakes is a list of Mikey's characteristics. *Heart of a golden retriever *Always reasy for adventure *Pancake connoisseur *Fiercely protective and loyal * "Best road trip buddy, like, ever!"

📚💙 It's #MeetTheCharactersMonday! Today is Mikey Hill. This dude, like, totally emerged as a fully formed character and changed very little over all of the drafts. He loves nothing more than blueberry pancakes, hot chicks who can kick ass, and trackin' monsters with his brother Cole. #fantasybooks

Image is a book graphic. The background is a faded old wood floor. At the bottom right is a prescription pad with the name Dr. Stella Pike in a scripty font. A spring of a purple flower called vervain lays across it, along with a silver ball point pen. At the top in large, bold serif font reads: Meet the characters: Almost Like Magic. Along the left are bits about this character that are also in a bold serif font. They read, from top to bottom: *Family doctor and mystical healer *Creates a home for those who need one most *Stabby when needed *Not a tracker, not a witch..."princess" *Fiercely protective of her found family

I thought I'd try a little something for the next few Mondays... #MeetTheCharacter

Of course I have to start out with the main character, Dr. Stella Pike. She's perfectly content with her life until *they* show up! (IYKYK)
