This is a story of a woman who has a ranch I hope to emulate in a few years.

This is the story of Crystal Peaks Youth Ranch, a place where abandoned horses and abandoned hearts go to heal.

The book tells the tales of miracles, triumphs, sadness and thoughts to ponder as a woman and her husband develop a ministry to matching broken horses with broken hearts in the bodies of young children to try and make some sense of a world gone wrong.

A young boy whose father left his teeth jagged bonded with a large horse who put his head around the young boy's fragile body and hugged him close to his sturdy heart.

A young girl who would die shortly, and wanted the freedom of her body again, found it by riding a horse who had been close to death itself.

A young boy, in jail and with no hope, finds love and acceptance by a tribe of horses and the people who love them.

When you want to feel again, for just a moment, this is a book to pick up and remember that there is life worth living and there are people in it who are worth knowing.
