Scarred Hearts Still Love. Wild Hearts of Copper Creek, #3

Some scars are visible. The deepest ones aren't.???????She lost everything. Then she lost herself. Former champion barrel racer Mariana Santos thought her life was over when a devastating arena accident shattered her leg and her dreams. Now helping her aunt run a struggling horse rescue ranch, Mari has accepted that her rodeo days are behind her-and closed herself off from anything that might hurt her again.
She's done with hope. Done with dreams. Done with letting anyone close enough to see her scars. He's been living for everyone but himself. Widowed veterinarian Eli Navarro hasn't thought about his own happiness since his wife died three years ago. Everything he does is for his six-year-old daughter, Lucia-including volunteering at the local horse rescue, where Lucia has become obsessed with horses and the guarded woman who cares for them.
Eli isn't looking for love. But something about Mari Santos makes him want to try living again. When a traumatized rescue horse named Ghost arrives at the ranch, only Mari can reach him. As she fights to heal Ghost, she begins to heal herself-with the help of a patient man and his fearless little girl. But when the rescue faces closure, Mari must find the courage to ride again. And this time, everything is on the line.
Scarred Hearts Still Love is the third book in the Wild Hearts of Copper Creek series-a tender Western romance about found family, second chances, and discovering that the bravest thing isn't getting back on the horse. It's letting someone see your scars.
