I *loved* this book! The characters are well rounded and fully developed, yet expressively human. Tory, who runs a riding stable for people in need, feels that she's never going to have her lifelong dream of having a family. Slade Donaldson, who lost his wife to the car accident that injured his daughter, feels that God has abandoned him. Slade's daughter, Mindy, who is 8, suffered epilepsy from the injury and had brain surgery to correct it. She had to relearn everything after the surgery and the only way she would go willingly to her physical therapy was if she also got the chance to spend time with the horses at Tory's stable. The romance between Tory and Slade is wonderful; watching two wounded people find love again is always enjoyable, but the way they both love Minday and the ways in which their relationship helps Slade begin a relationship anew with God, are especially poignant. This is a wonderful read!

I loved this religious romance though I'm not that into romances let alone religious ones. But if you love happy endings read this one.
Just when Victoria Alexander was ready to abandon her lifelong dream of having a family, she bonded with a special child whose needs outweighed her own. Now Tory would do anything to help the little girl - even if it meant marrying the child's father! But the quiet agony in Slade Donaldson's eyes told Tory his daughter wasn't the only one who needed to be made whole again. In spite of her own tragedy, Tory felt an inexplicable need to ease some of Slade's suffering. Could God's grace now heal these broken hearts so that Tory could finally have the family she longed for?
Inspirational romance where Victoria has a dire longing for a family. She meets Tory and immediately get attached - to the point of considering marrying the little girls father, Slade. Both Victoria and Slade have broken hearts that need mending before they can forge any new relationships. Can they help each other with the mending process?
I really enjoyed this book. It had me giggling outloud at the playfulness of the characters action and it also tugged at my heart and brought me to tears over there struggles.
Very good book about a little girl who needs a family
