A Cowgirl’s Stories: A Novel (The Life and Stories of Jaime Cruz)

“Infused with heart and humor … Graf finds a way to pull on your heartstrings with a grounded narrative doused in realism. ” – Readers’ Favorite Review ___ No one member of the Geermann-Schlatter family defines the life and essence of the ranch quite like Sallie. When her great-nephew, Noah, says to her, “Grandpa writes the poems, you need to write the stories,” Sallie reflects upon the lives of those before her, those in her life now and the extraordinary healing that comes to all when hearts are open. Sallie’s own life has been molded by her father’s reverence for “nature’s symbiosis” and her mother’s contemplative spirit. She blends her characteristic wit and gravitas with her unending love for the people, land and creatures that surround her. She takes us along on the journey as only she can.
