Fleeing Melbourne and her broken relationship, Gloria Grant still has one ace up her sleeve-a job offer to work with traumatized horses in Wyoming. But instead of blissful mountain air and fulfilling ranch work, she finds a family ruined by tragedy and a ranch owner who refuses to let Gloria near her horses.
