TO HEAL A HEART
By: Jana Richards
The Plot:
Garrett Saunders‘ world changed two
years ago on a road in Afghanistan. Back
home, he feels like a stranger. As he
struggles to find his place in the world, he
meets a horse destined for the slaughterhouse
and a woman bent on rescuing the
strays of the world, including him.
Blair Greyson moves to Masonville
to look after her ailing grandfather and
give her rescue horses a home. Right
away she butts heads with a surly former
Marine. Despite a rocky start, they come to an agreement: Blair
will board Garrett‘s rescue horse and he‘ll help with repairs
around her farm.
Garrett finds purpose working with Blair—and falls in love
with her. But she‘s hiding a secret. Can she forgive herself and
accept Garrett‘s love, or will she let guilt and regret continue to
rule her life?
An Excerpt
He bent at the waist and rolled up his right pant leg till it was
above his knee, revealing a device made of metal and plastic
where flesh and bone should have been. He rose to his full
height and looked her straight in the eye, as if daring her to pity
him.
―As you can see, I‘d have a tough time acing the physical.‖
Blair wanted to cry. She wanted to run into Garrett‘s arms
and hold him forever, to make all the hurt go away. She wanted
to scream and yell and rail against war and all the stupidity and
intolerance in the world.
But Garrett wouldn‘t appreciate her tears.
So, she sucked them back and raised her gaze to his, willing
her chin not to tremble.
―I hope you‘re not going to use your leg, or lack thereof, as
an excuse to get out of work.‖
***** Goodreads Review by Yvonne Cruz: ―This is an
emotional, touching, at times heartbreaking but also heartwarming
story that will reach your heart and your soul.‖
