New York Times bestselling author Catherine Anderson will touch your emotions with the story of woman who brings out the best in a daredevil cowboy in this Harrigan Family novel. At twenty-eight, Mandy Pajeck has spent most of her life taking care of others. Since the accident that took her younger brother's sight, Luke's complete reliance on Mandy's care has left both of them feeling trapped. But when Mandy meets handsome Zach Harrigan, she thinks she's found the ticket to her brother's happiness. Of the five Harrigan siblings, Zach was the hellion who partied hard and took nothing seriously. But when his life starts to feel empty, Zach decides to employ his skills as a horseman to train a mini guide horse for the blind-never expecting the project will lead him to beautiful, tender-hearted Mandy. Even though she's charmed by Zach's patience and compassion, Mandy can't bring herself to fully trust him. And when Zach urges her to confront the truth about her mother's disappearance, the secrets they uncover are so shocking that even Zach's steadfast devotion may not be enough to win her heart...
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 cant help but loving Zach. Hes 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
