Mended Hearts

When Sydney Chase convinced her boyfriend to take her on a sailing trip, she never imagined that a terrible storm would claim his life. Five years later, Sydney is still consigned to a life of sorrow and self-punishment, but finds solace in teaching horseback-riding lessons at her grandfather's ranch. If only he would stop setting her up on dates with guys she's definitely not interested in.

After Grandpa Gabriel promises to end his matchmaking scheme, Sydney is both surprised and frustrated when yet another young man shows up at the ranch to meet her — even though this is a particularly attractive one. But he says he's just there for the horses.

As Jackson and Sydney work together to breed Sydney's favorite mare, Sydney struggles to face her past and forgive herself for her boyfriend's death. Will she be able to overcome her fears and embrace new hope? And will she have strength enough to let love into her life again?
