Read this book.  You will not be sorry.  Mimi , a young urban black woman falls in love with wide open spaces while on vacation on a working ranch.  She sells her condo and car back in DC and buys a five hundred acre  ranch called " The Watering Hole".  Mimi knows nothing about ranching and even less about the property she just bought. Her new abode is a rundown shack that has become home to  all the critters who have taken up residence there.  Everything from bats to snakes come as a shock to her senses.  Even more alarming  is the caretaker, Gabriel, a white war veteran. He seems a bit odd at first but gradually they form a relationship that is just beautiful to watch.  Mimi Is sweet , smart, determined and funny .  Gabriel is special  and has a compelling reason for being the man he is. Please  read this book.  It is a wonderfully told story about two good people you can really root for.
