What happens when a traditional horse whisperer clashes with an unconventional trainer within the charming Amish community of Honey Brook?

Grace Zook has always held a talent with horses, ever since she was a child growing up in her quaint Amish village of Honey Brook. Now, as an adult, she’s become a master trainer—but still struggles to prove to her father that she is worthy of taking over the family’s horse farm. With a fiery new stallion coming soon, Grace knows this challenge is her chance to prove she can finally take the reins.

When widower and horse whisperer Isaac King is offered the lead training job on a new farm out of town, he’s thrilled to finally make a name for himself and provide some permanent roots for his young daughter. But not only is the stallion seemingly unbreakable, so, too, is the owner’s headstrong daughter Grace, who has drastically different ideas about how to handle the impossible horse. Yet somehow, he can’t seem to get the confident, beautiful woman out of his mind…even though as his boss’s daughter, she is completely off-limits.

There’s too much at stake for Isaac to gamble his future on Grace…even though suddenly, he can’t imagine one without her.

REVIEW:

Well, let's start with the fact that it's an Amish fiction, so for me, that is already a winner.  
 
Technically, this is the second book in a new series called Honey Brook, by Ophelia London, but I don't think it matters, as it can be read as a stand alone.
 
With that said though, you can be sure that I'm going to hunt down book number one, because aside from the fact that Amish fiction is one of my favorites, I really enjoyed the story and the author.  

This was my first Ophelia London book but it certainly won't be the last.

The story revolves around Grace who is a horse trainer in her father's horse farm.  She has always had a natural talent for taking care of, and training horses, but as an Amish woman, it is not exactly something approved of.  The fact that Grace wants nothing more than to inherit her father's farm, is also something that is not usually allowed, as Amish women don't normally own businesses.

Isaac, is the newcomer, a horse whisperer coming to work at the horse farm.  He is a widower, left with a young daughter, just trying to make a living, take care of her and mind his own business.  What he isn't counting on is the head strong and stubborn Grace, seemingly always in his way and wanting to run things differently than he does.

I think we can all get an idea on how this is going to go, right?

And as predictive as the story is, I still gobbled up every word and enjoyed every page.  The two characters are wonderful on their own, but together there is a palpable chemistry that brings a huge smile to our faces.

Throw in the wonderful community of the Amish, and you have a wonderful book to enjoy.

Thank you to TLC Book Tours and Entangled: Amara publishers for a review copy.
