Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

This is another wonderful, very emotional story of the Harrigan family, which takes a look at the long-term effect of childhood abuse. The phobias of the heroine and her brother are easily believable. There is also fascinating insight into the training of guide animals and the important roles they play in the lives of the people they help.”—RT Book Reviews

“You can’t help but loving Zach. He’s a good-looking cowboy with a horse ranch and because of his wild past, he has a deeper level of calm. Pair him with Mandy, a totally devoted family girl who becomes a hellion of her own when pushed too far and you have a match made in Heaven.”—Once Upon a Romance

Library Journal

Long the family hellion, successful horse trainer Zack Harrigan rethinks his life after yet another barroom brawl—this time defending a blind man from a bully—and takes a hard look at training miniature horses as service guides. His work with the miniature Rosebud attracts the attention of Mandy Pajeck, who is desperate to find a service animal for her blind and difficult 19-year-old brother. While Zach has serious doubts about letting Rosebud work with Mandy's belligerent, spoiled sibling, he has no doubts about her. Her way with horses is magical and so is her way into his heart. But Mandy has no plans to marry—anyone. VERDICT Long noted for her remarkable ability to incorporate into her fiction with seamless sensitivity serious social issues and physical disabilities, Anderson has done it again, beautifully, penning another heartwarming classic overflowing with family, ranch life detail, humor, and love. A touching addition to the "Harrigan Family" series. Anderson (Early Dawn) lives in central Oregon.
