Sustaining herself and her partners, can Hildegarde survive by herself out on the edge of the Frontier, where monsters and bandits roam around freely looking to prey on the weak? Author's Note: THIS IS FUTANARI, YURI, AND FEMALE ONLY!!! This is a smut book alongside being a Survival/Farm Sim/ Life Sim type of novel, so understand that there will be sex, breeding, pregnancy and more; additionally, the Demi Human's are treated like a different race compared to Humans, and as such it may be uncomfortable for some to read about. There WILL be some scenes that will likely bring up that discomfort, as well as other discomforts, but there won't be anything incredibly dark within the novel, so don't worry about that; besides that, yes, this novel will have a story alongside the 'plot', so I hope I can do well with that too lol~! Come on in, enjoy, and if this doesn't sound like something you would like to read, please, don't force yourself; I want to value your time as much as I value my own. PLEASE do not spam comments, don't be rude for the sake of being rude, and do not feel the need to announce your own departure; if you have criticisms, I am open to hearing them because that is something I can improve from, but being rude and not offering criticisms is not welcome.

The dust of a small Texas town settled around Tessica Raleigh, a world away from the familiar outskirts of Dodge City, Kansas. She didn't expect much from this "Podunk" place, certainly not excitement. Her life revolved around the rhythm of the seasons, the annual harvest of wheat and corn that her family meticulously managed. Her true sanctuary wasn't a quiet room or a bustling city street; it was the cab of a combine or a tractor, the steady hum of the engine a comforting presence as she plowed and harvested the crops. Romance was a distant, practically nonexistent, concept in her demanding schedule. Her parents, meanwhile, basked in their perceived wealth from the successful harvests, seemingly oblivious to anything beyond their financial comfort. On the Triple R Ranch, Logan Ray was living a different, yet equally focused, life. His days were steeped in the traditions of the ranch, a legacy passed down by his dad and uncles. His sophomore year had been smooth sailing, and he felt no anxieties about stepping into junior year. The only real pressure came from his friends, who relentlessly teased him about getting a girlfriend. Logan, however, had his priorities set on his studies and the demanding work of the ranch. He found far more interest in the intricacies of cattle and crops than in high school dating. This focus, however, sometimes made him a target for Kale Edwards, Sawyer Edwards' oldest son, whose animosity often manifested in physical blows.

The rodeo circuit, already a test of endurance, now became a battleground for their hearts and futures.

Zach, the youngest Ray brother, was feeling the pinch of being the odd man out. With Colt finding love with Hedli and Bucky grappling with his feelings for Ali, Zach felt increasingly adrift and, perhaps, a little lonely. After meeting Ali and seeing the sparks, a restless energy took hold of him, pushing him towards the bottom of a bottle. His increased drinking led to more than a few clashes with his brothers, who worried about his sudden downward spiral. Being the only single man on the Triple R felt less like freedom and more like a curse. Meanwhile, Kat Edwards, a woman with a name that spoke volumes about her connections, worked diligently at the feed store in Marshall. She was related to the town mayor and, more significantly for the Ray brothers, to Sawyer, their known enemy. Kat took pride in her work, ensuring every customer left with a smile and the right order. Her life, for the most part, was orderly and predictable. But predictability was shattered two months after her birthday. A night at a bar, fueled by drinks and a potent mix of loneliness and reckless abandon, had thrown her and Zach together. What happened between them was a blurred memory until Kat stared at the confirmation in her hand. She was pregnant. With Zach Ray's child. And Kat Edwards, with her family's reputation and her sense of justice, now had a serious bone to pick with the youngest Ray brother. What happens when Kat confronts Zach about the pregnancy? Does she seek him out at the ranch, or does their confrontation happen elsewhere? And how do Zach's brothers react when this explosive news inevitably comes out?
