She’s got nothing in her kit to cure heartache…
Veterinarian Cass Truman has just landed her first job, in England’s Lake District, and she’s already eager to specialize in caring for horses. Horse breeder Jake Munro could help her achieve this dream; for one thing, he could teach her to ride. Instead, he acts as if he can’t stand her. At first, Cass is happy to return the sentiment—until she learns Jake has suffered a terrible loss. Cass finds herself drawn to the grieving man, and the two bond over their shared affinity for horses. But while Cass can relieve an animal’s suffering, she’s not sure she can ease Jake’s….
“Having trouble?”
Twisting around in her seat, Cass saw a horse and rider trotting toward her. Jake Munro! He was the last person she wanted to see, but it was too late to start her engine and pull out.
She cursed the blush she could feel spreading up her face. “No.”
“I saw you driving out of Sky View.”
“Yes,” she said, determined not to be daunted by his sheer masculinity. “I’ve just rented a cottage from your dad.”
There was an icy glint in his blue eyes, but she held his gaze without faltering. “Don’t worry, though—it’s well away from the farm, so you won’t have to see me.”
He swung his mount away. “It makes no difference to me where you live.”
The angry set of his jaw belied his pronouncement, and Cass found herself hoping he wouldn’t give poor Bill a hard time.
“Look,” she called after him, “I needed somewhere to stay, and your dad had the perfect place.”
Jake reined in. The grey mare tossed her beautiful head, and foam flew like snowflakes.
“I already told you,” he repeated drily, “it means nothing to me where you live.”
But as he rode away, Cass couldn’t help watching. Man and horse, moving as one.
Dear Reader,
I truly believe that we all have a soul mate somewhere out there.
If you find your kindred spirit then never let go. Real love is well worth fighting for. No matter what.
I do hope you enjoy reading this story as much as I have enjoyed writing it.
Be happy,
Eleanor

ELEANOR JONES
Born and raised on a farm in Northern England, Eleanor Jones has always had a passion for animals and the countryside. She has been writing almost all her life. The poems and stories she wrote as a child, which still grace a cupboard somewhere, were mostly written in longhand. She later wrote articles for an equestrian magazine and her first big break came when she began writing teenage pony mystery stories. These still sell successfully in seven countries throughout Europe and in North America.
Married at eighteen to Peter, she had two children and then set up the Holmescales Riding Centre in Cumbria with her husband. This busy center now trains career students, takes hacks and treks and teaches at all levels from children and total novices to competition riders.
Eleanor still rides every day, schooling and training horses, and her daughter is now a partner in the business and competes at the national level. Her son is married with two children, and she loves to spend as much time with them as she can.
