She believes love can conquer all but can it? Kimberly Urbane has loved Jake Taylor since junior high school.

That is, until he unexpectedly comes back into town and needs a room to rent and Kimberly has one available, well, sort of. Long days, and even longer nights, prove that there is an undeniable attraction between them, but is it enough to convince Jake that he and Kimberly have a chance together?

A bitter divorce has left Jake Taylor gun-shy when it comes to love until a visit to his hometown begins to change his mind. He never put much stock into Kimberly's obvious crush on him years ago, but now she's all grown up and the more time he spends with her, the harder it is to resist her. Jake knows he can't possibly give Kimberly the future she wants and deserves but his desire for her is strong and his ability to resist her is weakening. Should he stay and risk more heartbreak, or walk away for good? When wounded pride and well-kept secrets turn everything in their world upside-down, is it still possible to have the life they both dreamed of?

Horse Speak is not a training method or technique—it is a practical system for “listening” and “talking” to horses in their language, instead of expecting them to comprehend ours. Horse Speak can be used by anyone who works with horses, whether riding instructor, colt starter, recreational rider, or avid competitor. It promises improved understanding of what a horse is telling you, and provides simple replies you can use to tell him that you “hear” him, you “get it,” and you have ideas you want to share with him, too. The result? Time with your horse will be full of what horse trainer and equine-assisted learning instructor Sharon Wilsie of Wilsie Way Horsemanship calls Conversations, and soon the all-too-common misunderstandings that occur between horse and human will evolve into civil discussions with positive and progressive results! Learn Horse Speak in 12 easy steps; understand equine communication via breath and body language; and discover the Four Gs of Horse Speak: Greeting, Going Somewhere, Grooming, and Gone. Practice regulating your intensity, and sample dozens of ready-made Conversations with your horse, as step-by-step templates and instructional color photographs walk you through the eye-opening process of communicating on a whole new level.
