Love & Stones

When 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? Cathryn McNeil wants to believe in happily-ever-after, Jane Austen style. But a twice-divorced therapist is an unlikely heroine. She's resigned to her secluded life in her small prairie town with her animals and fictional heroes until she meets polo player Jack Stone at a funeral.
They're drawn together by a mutual love of horses and the land, but his hot and cold behavior-and a family secret involving another woman-cause her to question if he can be the hero she seeks. With her heart still buried in a graveyard of loss, it seems too late for adventure-or love. The powerful weather and sweeping vistas of the northern plains and the Rocky Mountain foothills set the mood. Nature challenges life, loyalty, and friendship as each character in the diverse cast comes to terms with love and loss, and reinvents their own role in the circle of life. A story of seasoned romance, friendship, horseback adventure, and family drama rolled into one life-changing journey.
