Welcome to Horseshoe, where even generations-long feuds take second place to caring for your neighbors. TEXAS REBELS: QUINCY is the latest story in the Texas Rebels series by Linda Warren. Each story centers on a member of this ranching family and their search for the love of their life. This time we learn more about Quincy, a big, hardworking and caring man whose main concern is the well-being of his large family.

How's a girl supposed to fight a family rule? Families often hold almost sacred their bond, and when challenged by an outsider, they join ranks. The Rebel boys have been taught since young that they don't tread on the relationships of their brothers. In other words, once a Rebel boy claims a girl it's hand off.

Rules were made to be broken, at least that's what many believe. But not the Rebel brothers and in particular Quincy. He is the family caretaker and peacemaker -- how interesting that he would be one of the first to face challenging the rule. Totally not by design, but the heart knows what it wants and sometimes you have to fight to win the one person who has captured your attention.

Quincy's brother Paxton is an independent soul often following the rodeo route as a bull rider. Rodeos have their own set of groupies and the charming Paxton certainly attracts his share. That has never been popular with the Rebels, and especially not with his at-home girlfriend Jenny. Jenny looks at herself as the on again/off again girlfriend, but it's readily apparent to just about everyone else her commitment is one sided. Jenny has become a convenience for Paxton.

For a long time, Quincy has realized that his feelings for Jenny are more than just a friend but he was determined to ignore them. His allegiance after all is to his family and, most important, his brother. But it's hard to choose between family and the person you love. We don't decide who we lose our heart to -- sometimes it just happens and at times the roadblocks are enormous.

In TEXAS REBELS: QUINCY, Linda Warren tackles a tough issue -- sibling rivalry. In this case, it pits brother against brother, and the prize is a lovely woman. And true to form Warren handles it with class and love. You can't help fall in love with the Rebel family. TEXAS REBELS: QUINCY is filled with lovely images of ranch life.
