Liz
Randall is coming home a champion.
Fifteen
years after leaving Columbus to follow her dream of riding dressage
for the United States Equestrian Team, Liz has returned with a gold
medal, a determination to raise her teenage daughter, and a dream to
expand her therapeutic riding practice.
Falling
in love again isn't in her plan, especially not with Jason Merrick,
her first love, the boy whose heart she broke all those years ago.
The man with whom she shares more than just a history.
Jason
Merrick came home a hero.
An
Army Ranger seriously wounded in the same attack that killed his best
friend, Jason sought the familiar comfort of his hometown to recover.
Now he's ready to build something rather than destroy. What he wasn't
ready for was seeing Liz Randall--the girl who broke his heart
fifteen years ago. His growing construction company needs the money
remodeling Liz's stables will bring. That's the only reason to take
the job...or so he tells himself.
The
moment they see each other again, feelings that never died come
rushing back. Jason knows he'll do anything to have her. But as much
as Liz wants to be his, she has a secret. A secret that, once
revealed, could make him walk away from her forever.

One
fateful decision in a moment of weakness destroyed Lionel Hayes' life

At first, he blamed his friend Michael Stafford for his misfortune
and sought revenge, but through his work rehabilitating abused horse,
and the trust of one special horse, he realized that he had to take
responsibility for his actions, and that he and he alone should take
the blame. From that day forward, Lionel vowed to restore his image
and resume the career that he loved. In the process, he found the
horse of a lifetime, Gideon's Rainbow.
Monty
Campbell was a rising star on the international show jumping circuit
until he lost his horse to injury. Desperate for a replacement mount,
and with the support of the British Equestrian Team, he leaned of

the horse's owner was also a perfect match for him, although the man
stubbornly refused to acknowledge it. How could Monty convince Lionel
they were meant for each other and would the sinister force that
sought to destroy Lionel destroy Monty as well?
