Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
"Paradise Al" is a drifter and rambler who has been riding the rails when he jumps off a passenger train just outside of town. He's caught and thrown in jail, but his resemblance to the Pendletons, a local family, gets him out. Suddenly Al is caught in the middle of the Pendletons' long-standing feud with the Draytons, another local clan that has a wild, untamed stallion and has boasted it will give the horse to anyone who can ride him. Paradise Al, clearly a novice when it comes to horses, takes up the challenge, with two conditions: he gets to keep the horse on the Pendleton Ranch for a week and he gets to marry young Molly Drayton if he wins.
Originally published in 2009.
Paradise Al -- Paradise Al's confession -- The quest.

"In three Western stories: 'Paradise Al', 'Paradise Al's Confession', and 'The Quest', misunderstood men find the chance to prove themselves"-- Provided by publisher.
