Book description
When she agrees to take on one of the abused horses just rescued by
the local SPCA, a new chapter opens in Susan Richards's difficult life.
She lost her mother at the age of five and was raised by
uncaring relatives; she married unhappily and divorced; and she'd been
an alcoholic. Now, at the age of forty-three, she lives with three
horses who keep her company: the diva-like Georgia, boyish Tempo and
hopelessly romantic Hotshot.
While trying to capture another horse assigned to her, Lay Me
Down, a skeletal mare, walks into Susan's horse trailer of her own
volition. When Susan agrees to take her, she begins to forge a
special, healing relationship that alters her life.
Poignant and evocative, this is a book for anyone who has ever
loved a horse, and for everyone who has ever lost a loved one.
