A Horseman's Gift



GIVEAWAY



JOHNSON, MYRA
A HORSEMAN'S GIFT

Filipa Beltran is tired . . . sick and tired of living out her parents’ dreams. After years of guitar lessons and the seemingly endless string of part-time jobs to pay for them, Filipa makes a drastic decision to leave New York and the hope of becoming a professional musician behind and return to her hometown, to move forward with her life--on her terms.


The past year has been nothing short of crazy for Nathan Cross. Once set on becoming a big business mogul, Nathan’s plans derail following his father’s untimely death and his mother’s whirlwind remarriage. Now he’s headed back home to carry on his father’s legacy running an equine therapy program . . . and trusting God to sort out his future.

When Nathan discovers childhood friend Filipa is also back in town--to stay--he finds it hard to swallow. Maybe she wasn’t the girl he thought, or else she wouldn’t sacrifice everything her parents dreamed of for her.

Can Nathan and Filipa find contentment in their God-given gifts?

My Review:

I am such a Myra Johnson fan! She knows how to sweep me away with every book she writes!

Solid characters -- the kind you can see yourself being friends with -- create the base for this compelling read. Providing a an Equine Therapy ranch has a backdrop creates a perfect combination in this winning romance.

I love Filipa's story arc. Johnson digs deep to unfold an emotional journey that brings growth and ultimate satisfaction to  more than just Fil. What a thought-provoking story thread, relatable to many. I can't say more without giving intrinsic plot details away, but Johnson did a great job of allowing Filipa to find her own way. It culminates in an immensely satisfying conclusion that brings everything around full circle.

This is one sweet romance too good to miss!!!

And you won't have to because not only will two commenters receive a free book here -- but Harlequin Heartsongs Presents past releases are now available to order individually. How cool is that????
