A young girl follows her dreams while facing challenges and discovering love
Arika Horner announces the release of 'Homestead Ranch'
THREE RIVERS, Mich., Aug. 4, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Arika Horner announces her entry into the publishing scene with the release of "Homestead Ranch" (published by AuthorHouse), the story of a dreamer, who finds herself through encouragement from others. She decides to write with the support of family and friends while facing challenges and discovering love.
Veronica, an accelerated business student, lives on her family farm, Homestead Ranch, in Salyersville, Kentucky. Growing up, she took an interest in writing fiction and poetry when she was not helping on the ranch. Her father pushes her to become a business student, but Veronica has other dreams along with her sister. Her world is catapulted into a new trajectory when she applies for a scholarship at New Haven, a school for young authors, and meets Dustin in the red F-250.
An excerpt from the book reads:
Bent and winding, twisting and turning, my framework of fibers provides a home. I was a sapling, but no more will I sprout. No, I am tall, reaching towards the heavens as if I had no endpoint. Shivers run down my spine, I'm always a jungle gym or a playground for the little muskrats. Wait! I'm so much more than a mat. I'm a scenic view. I'm the source of your warmth. I'm the base and foundation of your residence. I'm the filter to your air. I'm everything while being nothing at all. Maybe, you'll notice me, standing tall or not at all. For now, I'm the jungle gym, but one day, I'll have it all.
"I think this book will appeal to readers because it's a story for anyone, no matter the age. I think it is entertaining and creates a message of inspiration. I want to continue this series and grow the storyline with Veronica's character. I want people to see change and bettering one's self is possible," Horner says. When asked what she wants readers to take away from the book, she answers, "I want readers to take away the message of hope and encouragement to take the risk of changing your life even when it seems impossible."
