Publishers Description: The inspiring true story of how a rodeo champions faith and determination helped her achieve her dreams and overcome some of lifes greatest obstaclesFiona Johnson was born a city girl, but was always drawn to horses. At 10 she saved all of her pocket money to buy a saddle at a garage sale. Eventually, after months of nagging, she persuaded her parents to buy her a horse to go with the saddle. And so began a lifelong love affair with horses and rodeo. Fiona eventually moved from city to country when she met the love of her life, Matt. Sadly, tragedy struck shortly after they were married. Fiona was diagnosed with leukemia, and wasnt given very long to live. But Fiona is a fighter, and was determined to beat her illness and fulfill her dream of participating in rodeo events. Shortly after her release from seven months in hospital, Fiona decided it was the time to finally learn how to rope. After many failed practice sessions, she eventually got the hang of it and went on to win the rookie title for ladies breakaway roping in 2005. Now, 10 years later, in remission, and with two children, she can look back at the most difficult time in her life and revel in her triumph over near tragedy. Fiona is a true survivor and a champion roper, and this is her story.
