Five exceptional women have been selected as this year’s recipients of Harlequin’s More Than Words award. And this year Linda Lael Miller is one of five New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling authors who have kindly offered their creativity to write original short stories inspired by the real-life heroines this award honors. You might meet them at the coffee shop or walking down the street. They’re women across North America committed to reaching out and changing lives one good deed at a time.
Linda’s story, Queen of the Rodeo, is the heart-warming tale of a mother dealing with her daughter’s struggle with Down Syndrome. When she sees the positive effect that horses have on her daughter, Callie begins a therapeutic riding group. The real-life inspiration for this story, Jeanne Greenberg, is now the head of SARI, a charitable volunteer-based organization providing therapeutic horse riding for children and adults with special needs.
Because of this year’s recipients’ dedication, hundreds of special needs children receive therapeutic riding lessons. Economically challenged high school graduates are outfitted to attend their proms in style. Autism awareness is being brought to the public forefront. Around the world, terminally ill or impoverished children are receiving their own teddy bears to love. And homeless mothers and children are being provided their own small apartments, so they need never feel out in the cold.
Proceeds for the sale of this book will be reinvested in the Harlequin More Than Words program to support causes that are of concern to women.
