Whinny From the Heart
On the outskirts of Boston, a young woman awakens to discover her apartment building is on fire. Suddenly homeless, Kitt Burnett struggles to rebuild her life, this time resurrecting a childhood passion for horses. Dirty fingernails and painfully tight boots are the least of her problems while working at a Midwest resort stable because she quickly tumbles off the edge of her naïve, book-based horse knowledge. With hope and humor, Kitt wrestles with the stable's “good ol’ boy” dynamics, as well as with her own sagging confidence. During a summer filled with challenge and self-discovery, she befriends a vulnerable teen, falls for the local farrier, and tangles with a northwoods predator of the two-legged kind.
Unlike many horse stories featuring a competent heroine, Whinny From the Heart takes the reader for a romp with a character whose courage and pluck far outweigh her horse savvy. It's written for readers who enjoy adventure and humor, and for all who love horses—-no matter if their steeds are out nibbling on the fence posts or collecting dust on a curio shelf.
