Winter Solstice: A YA Western Novella

A sweeping holiday western filled with legend, mystery, and the unbreakable bonds of family.

Tonkawa cousins Potak and Tuc have spent their lives chasing visions and destiny, never certain what lies beyond the next bend in the trail. But when they rescue two teenage boys from the fiercest Texas winter storm in history, their path changes forever.

Tommy Turnbolt and Delbert Elliott are an unlikely pair-one unusually tall, the other strikingly small-guided to Texas by a crystal ball and the words of a fortune teller who promises they'll find their long-lost parents. With the help of their Tonkawa protectors, the boys set out on a journey marked by strange encounters, perilous trials, and a father's tragic past that threatens to unravel their quest.

As Christmas and the Winter Solstice draw near, visions of hope and heartbreak collide. Will Potak's dreams lead them to long-awaited reunions, or down a road of spiritual awakening none of them expected?

Full of western grit, holiday warmth, and unforgettable characters, Winter Solstice is a timeless tale of destiny, redemption, and the power of family.
