Third Installment of the In the Reins Series by Carly Kade Wins Best Western Romance at 7th Annual Event
The EQUUS Film & Arts Festival has named author Carly Kade as the 2019 Literary Award winner in the Best Western Romance category for her novel, Show Pen Promise. The award was presented at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, Kentucky during the 7th annual EQUUS Film and Arts Festival.
The EQUUS Film and Arts Festival is the leading showcase for domestic and international equestrian content including feature films, shorts, documentaries, music videos, commercials, training, educational materials, art and literature.
Carly received her first EQUUS Film and Arts Festival Literary Award in 2016 in the Best Western Fiction category for In the Reins, the first book in her series, and was the 2018 Literary Award recipient in the Best Equine Romance category for her novel, Cowboy Away.
“The EQUUS Film and Arts Festival brings the storytellers of the horse world together through films, art, music, and books,” said Carly Kade, author of the In the Reins book series. “I am honored that Show Pen Promise, the third novel in my series for horse lovers, has earned the 2019 EQUUS Film and Arts Festival Literary Award for Best Western Romance.”
In Show Pen Promise, readers begin exactly where Cowboy Away left off, reconnect with some surprise horse characters, and learn what the future holds for wannabe cowgirl Devon Brooke and horse trainer McKennon Kelly. Devon has some tough decisions to make regarding McKennon, her future plans and her beloved horse Faith. Show Pen Promise follows McKennon’s quest to help Devon believe she has the strength to become the cowgirl of her dreams.
Deeply romantic and suspenseful, the In the Reins book series captures the struggle between letting life move forward and shying away from taking the reins. Passionate, captivating, and full of equine epiphanies, this equestrian romance trilogy is sure to touch a reader’s inner cowgirl.
Praise for Show Pen Promise:
"Carly Kade has built a beautiful life at Green Briar in her In the Reins series with characters the horse world has come to love. The other day I was out with my horses, mucking and doing barn chores, and caught myself thinking about Green Briar and how I wished I lived there!" - Laurie Berglie, Author of Where the Bluegrass Grows and Kicking On
"The third installment in this series brings us a quieter, reflective look at the world of horsemanship through the eyes of our favorite characters, Devon and McKennon. The story paints a vivid and accurate portrayal of the responsibilities of caring for an injured horse, training a young horse from the ground up, and the challenges of preparing for competition. Through it all, we see Devon and McKennon grow even closer as a couple as they freely share their love for their horses -- and each other. A very satisfying addition to a lovely series." - Amy Elizabeth, Author of the Aspen Eyes Series
"As an equestrian exhibitor, it’s so nice to read details about a setting and with terminology I live each day. But even if that’s not your cup of tea, the romance itself will draw you in to the point where you don’t want to put the book down. I’m not a romance reader – ever — other than Kade’s books, and she never disappoints! Highly recommend." - Delores Kuhlwein, Contributor to Chrome Magazine
Not your typical romance, the In the Reins horse book series is for readers who enjoy equestrian fiction with a message. Carly Kade’s novels are available now in audiobook, paperback and ebook on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, iBooks, Google Books and Kobo.
