Girl in the windowBeth moves back to the home she wants nothing to do with.With so many memories she feels overwhelmed.The next ranch over,  Josh is doing the best he can with what he has.  Beth feels a kinship to the skittish horse on Josh's farm that she has watched from a window in the house.  Finally she goes over there early in the am's.  Josh watches her from his window.  She is just as skittish as the horse and Josh is drawn to her, just as he was to this horse. Josh knows nothing about her but that she lives in the old house. Very slowly he learns more than he would have ever thought possible. Josh and Beth have a long Track ahead of them! Good thing Josh is patient.This was not an easy book to read. I cried through most of it. I didn't want to put it down yet there was a few times I had to.  I will say it was healing also.  Valerie Douglas brought to life 2 very memorable characters.Such master weaving as only MS. Douglas can. Beth has a lot of well placed fears and worked so hard on facing them and controlling them.  Josh has so much love to give first with Fair (Horse) than with Beth.  It is touch and go and then slowly the characters come to rely on each other for support. Just when you think all is well you have to get back on the Bike and try again!  Roller coaster of a ride and so well written. I Highly Recommend this book.5 StarsPatchesjuliesbookreview.blogspot.com
