I`ve never been particularly interested in horses, or in cowboy romance, but this book was recommended to me and I`m very glad I read it. I`m sure this book is a great romance for horse lovers as it seems incredibly well researched - the author seems to know horses and the life around horses - but it`s also a great romance even for those of us who never saw the attraction of those huge four-legged animals.It`s the story about a talented heroine who`s exploited her talent for various reasons and who now has no passion left. Horses do not excite her anymore and for all of us who`ve experienced losing our passion for something, it`s heart breaking to read what she`s been through. She makes a clean break and hopes to find herself while working as a stable hand on the hero`s farm.What I really loved about this book, apart from the great description of the pain the heroine has been through, was how the hero never pushed her. In plenty of romances the hero would have been doing exactly what the heroine`s deceased husband did: push her until she would break. But the hero in this book is both compassionate and smart. He knows he wants the heroine but he also knows that she is broken and needs time to mend.This book is also very hot. The heroine finds her passion for horses by finding other kinds of passion and those scenes will make your heart pound. But it`s the love these two people are finding for each other that will make you smile. I can truly recommend this book for all lovers of romance - no love for horses is required.
