BACK IN THE SADDLE

They?ve both been thrown by hardships?but a veterinarian and a single mom find their hearts beating at full gallop again . . . All widowed veterinarian Zach Talbot wants is to raise his two boys in the peace and quiet of his New Mexico town. Who?d have thought that being roped into helping a woman choose a horse for her son would upend the single father?s whole world? Except ex-actress and rodeo rider Mallory Keyes isn?t just any woman . . . With its wide-open spaces and sky that goes on forever, Whispering Pines is the ideal temporary haven after the accident that changed Mallory?s life forever. Falling for the sexy, caring man who found the perfect palomino for her eleven-year-old wasn?t in her short or long-term plans. Zach?s also determined to get Mallory back in the saddle. Can she return the favor by helping to heal the still-grieving vet?s heart? Praise for multiple RITA Award winner Karen Templeton ?Pitch-perfect prose, spot-on dialogue and steady pacing.? ?Publishers Weekly
