About this item
In this powerful Amish romance, an isolated woman and a compassionate man learn that love can build a bridge between their two worlds.. Since witnessing the murder of her beloved parents, Miriam Hochstedler suffers from paralyzing anxiety and a deep-seated fear of the Englisch. Unwilling to venture beyond her family's Tennessee farm, she forms a close bond with a badly injured gelding. Like Miriam herself, the traumatized animal seems unlikely to recover - until skilled horse whisperer Reuben Brenneman arrives. A survivor of an abusive childhood, Reuben understands fear better than most. He'll do whatever it takes to help a terrified animal, but his compassion doesn't extend to the church that turned a blind eye to his family's suffering. Once he finishes this job, he'll return to the Englisch world, putting his Amish heritage behind him forever.
