Bookroo's summary

Will envisions a future as a cowboy, winning at the rodeo and carving out his own life. But his twin brother, Denny, shadows him, a reminder of past scars and shared blood. As they journey together, adventure beckons, yet responsibility looms. Can they balance their dreams with the ties that bind them? The road ahead is uncertain, but their bond is unbreakable.

From the publisher

Dreams always have a priceWill can see his future stretch out before him. It’s as clear as the plains that lead to La Junta and the first-place winnings at the rodeo. He will become a man, a cowboy with a life of his own. But his twin brother, Denny, follows, bringing with him the memory of that small white scar. Ahead lies adventure; behind, responsibility. And on the road between, Will and Denny will travel together–brothers united by blood.
