Three people-each on a journey-and living life eight seconds at a time. Despite ever-present danger, insufficient pay and endless miles down unfamiliar, often unfriendly highways, it's a journey they love. Wild Ride! takes readers on the road, into the arena and onto the backs of bucking broncs, hard-running horses and cantankerous bulls in an often funny, sometimes heartbreaking, but always candid look at the lives of a trio of rodeo's most successful stars. Barrel racer Monica Wilson, bull rider Kelly Armstrong and saddle bronc rider Duane Daines share their greatest triumphs and darkest hours. While most of us mutter, "Nothing could make me do that," Wild Ride! allows us to understand why these three could never want to do anything else.

Review
"It's hard to choose highlights in a book like this. There are so many great tales. Pick up this book and be prepared for a good long sit because you won't want to put it down. Be ready to laugh lots, be choked up the odd time and feel mighty proud. It truly is a wild ride!" -- Canadian Rodeo News
