Love and Stones

IF A LADY, OF ANY AGE, IS TO BECOME A HEROINE, something surely must occur to send adventure-and a hero-her way ...

Cathryn McNeil wants to believe in happily-ever-after, Jane Austen style. But a twice-divorced children's therapist stuck in a small prairie town is an unlikely heroine. She has resigned herself to fictional heroes and the company of her animals until she meets polo player Jack Stone at a funeral. Their mutual love of horses sparks hope, but he acts more scoundrel than hero.

With her heart still buried in a graveyard of loss, it seems too late for adventure-or love. Then fate offers a second chance. Can she conquer the challenges of nature and human folly to free herself from the past? Or has she misread too many novels?

A story of seasoned romance, friendship, horseback adventure, and family drama rolled into one life-changing journey.
