Leigh Meredith was your typical over-achiever, rising to the top in the advertising field, living the high life - trips, penthouses, everything that went along with that privileged lifestyle. She had everything including a successful, good looking fianc who after arriving home on Christmas eve dropped a bombshell telling Leigh that he'd met an old flame from his college days, and had fallen in love all over again - only not with Leigh. Obviously, she needed to regroup and take a look at her life up to that point. Hopping in her car, she left for parts unknown arriving in a small town in the Virginia horse country, taking a minimum wage job, and a tiny cozy apartment. There she would meet crusty Bibs McBride, stable owner and ultimately the one-eyed horse Silver Dreams. Buying Silver Dreams, caring for him and finally riding again she discovered his remarkable speed and with the help of a cantankerous trainer, Whit Riley, entered the high stakes racing world. With a one-eyed horse, and the two wounded souls of Leigh and Whit they would all embark on a journey of healing to ultimately find fulfillment of dreams they once thought were lost.

*** This was a very well-written and fast paced story. Facts revolving around horses, their care, the racing aspect was extremely well-done and well-researched. From one horse lover to another this will definitely prove to be a great read.
