A horse. A woman. A dream.

In 2005, life seemed simple to Jo Mason. She was going to be the first woman to raise the USMB International Championship trophy above her head. Double tragedy strikes the beginning of her quest. First, she finds her longtime companion dead in his stall. Second, his replacement almost kills her.

Nine years later, she wonders what she's meant to do with her life. Her fear of horses has left her estranged from her family and second-guessing herself. During a quiet walk in the woods, she's confronted by the rogue stallion's son and a choice. Take control or keep running. Her decision begins an adventure that weaves a tapestry through past mistakes and regrets, present circumstances and consequences, and future hopes and dreams.
