Then the story twists to Tess's relationship with the motorcycle instructor who teaches her to ride the cycle left to her by her father.  She learns the instructor, Colton, is the old woman's grandson. Throughout, the reader learns how and why the old woman is attached to the horses that draw her carriage. Weaving together the subplot of Tess's developing romantic relationship with Colton and the collateral story of the horses, gives an entertaining reading experience of surprises, romance, and a secret unexpected ending.  This is a read-for-pleasure book.
