A wealthy horse farmer's rebellious daughter meets a sultry stable hand-but the result is far from the average tale of forbidden romance. When novelist Aiden Love publishes his parents' story he has no idea the trauma it will cause. The epic saga of one family's turbulent beginning is entwined with the challenge of a mother's relationship with her youngest child-the longed for only daughter, Angelique. But a secret Lindsay Halloran Love has kept for years could rip the tight-knit clan apart for good. Resilient bonds of loyalty and blood are stretched to the breaking point, until tragedy strikes at the very heart and soul of the Love family, forcing everyone to take stock of what really matters.
