Shadow Over New Beginnings
By Belinda Mady Sharland
Length: 269 pages
Genre: Romantic Western Suspense | Modern Western Saga
Some women run to escape. Katie rides.
Katie Maddison-Kyle lives in a castle built by a man who promised her the world — but behind its gilded walls, she's more prisoner than a princess. When her fairytale marriage shatters with a single brutal blow, she takes the one out he never saw coming: a surprise trip to a remote Texas ranch.
There, under wide skies and among wild horses, Katie rediscovers her power. Goliath, her first love in horse form, is waiting. So is Joshua — a rugged ranch hand who sees right through her bruises and barriers. But freedom isn't simple, and Katie's past has sharp teeth. Because Roy Kyle doesn't let go. And he's not done with her yet.
Set against a sweeping Western backdrop, Shadows Over New Beginnings is a fierce, emotional saga of escape, reinvention, and the kind of love that doesn't rescue you — it reminds you who you were before the silence.
This is Book One in the Fort Kenlla Saga — a four-part epic of power, legacy, and love that doesn't flinch.
Romance with real grit. Love, land, and the fire it takes to hold them.
