Days Made of Glass
Description
Shared blood defines a family, but spilled blood can too.
Harlie Cooper raised her sister, Angel, even before their mother died. When their guardian is killed in a fire, rather than be separated by Social Services, they run. Life in off the grid in L.A. isn't easy, but worse, there's something wrong with Angel.
Harlie walks in to find their apartment scattered with shattered and glass and Angel, a bloody rag doll in a corner. The doctor orders institutionalization in a state facility. Harlie's not leaving her sister in that human warehouse. But something better takes money. Lots of it.
When a rep from the Pro Bull Riding Circuit suggests she train as a bullfighter, rescuing downed cowboys from their rampaging charges, she can't let the fact that she'd be the first woman to attempt this stop her. Angel is depending on her.
It's not just the danger and taking on a man's career that challenges Harlie. She must learn to trust?her partner and herself, and learn to let go of what's not hers to save.
A story of family and friendship, trust and truth.
