All the King's Horses

"Sometimes your last nerve is the strongest link to forever."
Amy Dover's dream to become a professional horse trainer hasn't come without a price. Career pressure, combined with a difficult marriage to an oppressive husband, has sucked away every last bit of joy the horses used to bring her.
At her husband's untimely death, she packs her truck, heads over the Cascade Mountains, and takes a job as a farmhand. Yet even in the presence of the creatures she loves the most, her emotional wounds are too deep and wide to recapture what she's lost.
Dustin King senses there's something off about his new farmhand. She's undeniably attractive, but for someone who knows her way around a barn, she's unnervingly indifferent toward horses. Especially the pair of Tennessee Walkers he's just rescued. Instinct tells him that no matter how hard she tries not to care, the horses and the woman need each other.
As Amy and Dustin bond with the traumatized horses, something unexpected happens. The sparks between them ignite into a night of stormy passion. As Amy's soul comes back to life, though, she feels the pull to return to her old life. She just hadn't planned on having someone to leave behind.
"Warning: Contains two people who set the sheets on fire every chance they get... Well, except when they don't get anywhere near a bed. Which is more often than not, because, hey, when you want it, you want it. Book also contains a lot of lost souls, four-legged and two-legged alike, who made the author cry a few times, and seriously, she doesn't do that. Like, ever. You've been warned."
