Subject(s): Genre/Form: Summary: "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. As Miriam works alongside Reuben, battling the horse s fear - and her own - an unexpected friendship blooms and deepens into romance. But the Amish faith that sustains her inspires only distrust in Reuben, and the Englisch world he's chosen has already broken her heart once"-- Provided by publisher.
