Book Description
“It’s hard to be lonely, isn’t it? To miss someone who should be here?” Jodi Stuber wasn't looking for another horse for her struggling therapy ranch—let alone one like Solomon. After losing his herd, he was solitary and sad, spending his days standing near the plastic deer in his yard for company. No stranger herself to loss and heartache, Jodi knew she had to give Solomon a home. The road to recovery wouldn’t be easy. As Solomon struggled to fit in with his new herd and Jodi continued to navigate her own grief, the two developed a deep bond. But just as Jodi and Solomon were both beginning to heal, an unthinkable tragedy struck the therapy ranch. And Solomon was about to teach Jodi the greatest lesson of all. Written by Jennifer Marshall Bleakley, author of Joey: How a Blind Rescue Horse Helped Others Learn to See, Project Solomon is a powerful story of resilience, sacrifice, and love that reminds us all how much we matter—to each other and to God.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
Horses are always a puzzle Posey can figure out. Love and life? Now, those pose a challenge. Posey Malone is heading home. With her horse trainer father gone to the great bookmaker in the sky, her love life in shambles, and her career as a copywriter low-income at best, she figures it’s best for everyone if she just shacks up with her mother for a while. Abandoning New York City for the wilds of north Florida won’t be easy, but Posey figures she can use some quiet time back in her old bedroom to save money, help her mom adjust to life without her dad, and get her head on straight again. So when she pulls up in front of the family house and sees a big "For Sale" sign in the front yard, please forgive Posey if she says a few swear words. Mom has a new place to work and live, and Posey has little choice but to tag along after her. Unfortunately, this means she's thrust back into the thick of the Ocala rivalries which chased her away from home eight years ago. Namely: Adam Salazar. The son of her father's ex-partner, Adam made her life a living hell as a teenager. One could almost say Adam broke up her entire family, if one wanted to blame someone. And Posey definitely wants to blame someone. Determined to show Adam up, Posey takes on a failed racehorse as her project horse. She'll prove she's a better trainer than he is, and save some pride in the process. But when Adam takes Posey's bet and starts training a project horse of his own, she finds herself spending more time than she anticipated with her arch-nemesis . . . and that the arrogant boy she remembers has been replaced by a handsome man who is determined to make amends. A story about growing up, coming home, and finding love: The Project Horse will take you on a gallop through Florida's horse country with plenty of friendship, laughter, and redemption along the way. The Project Horse is part of the Florida Equestrian Collection, which includes: The Eventing Series The Alex & Alexander Series The Grabbing Mane Series The Show Barn Blues Series The Sea Horse Ranch Series The Briar Hill Farm Series These novels include overlapping characters, events, and locales which create a community of equestrians you'll love recognizing and catching up with in each book! Praise for Natalie Keller Reinert "Natalie Keller Reinert is the author that readers looking for adult equestrian fiction are looking for ... the dialogue is snappy and right on, and the horses and their personalities jump off the page." - Megan D., Grabbing Mane review on Amazon "Strong women are Ms. Reinert's stock in trade and I love it." - Lori, Grabbing Mane review on Amazon "I highly recommend all Natalie Keller Reinert's books." - appychicken, Christmas at Catoctin Creek review on Amazon "You know it's going to be a great day when you can download a new Natalie Keller Reinert book to your tablet!" - LifewithRen, Christmas at Catoctin Creek review on Amazon Perfect for readers of equestrian fiction such as The Horsewoman by James Patterson, Riders by Jilly Cooper, Dark Horse by Dick Francis, The Horse Whisperer by Nicholas Sparks, or books by Sara Gruen (Water for Elephants, Riding Lessons, Flying Changes), as well as fans of equine non-fiction such as Monty Roberts (The Man Who Listens to Horses), Tik Maynard (In the Middle are the Horsemen), Denny Emerson (How Good Riders Get Good, Know Better to Do Better), Susan Richards (Chosen by a Horse) and more.

A Horse at Night
Author: Amina Cain
Publisher: New York Review of Books
ISBN: 1948980142
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
“A Horse at Night is like light from a candle in the evening: intimate, pleasurable, full of wonder. It asks us to consider fiction as life and life as fiction. Amina Cain is our generous, gentle guide through an exquisite library. A truly beautiful book.” —Ayşegül Savaş “I adore her work, and sensibility,” writes Claire-Louise Bennett of Amina Cain; and Jenny Offill: “Cain writes beautiful precise sentences about what it means to wander through this luminous world.” Cain’s unique wandering sensibility, her attention to the small and the surprising, finds a profound new expression in her first nonfiction book, a sustained meditation on writers and their work. Driven by primary questions of authenticity and freedom in the shadow of ecological and social collapse, Cain moves associatively through a personal canon of authors— including Marguerite Duras, Elena Ferrante, Renee Gladman, and Virginia Woolf— and topics as timely and various as female friendships, zazen meditation, neighborhood coyotes, landscape painting, book titles, and the politics of excess. A Horse at Night: On Writing is an intimate reckoning with the contemporary moment, and a quietly brilliant contribution to the lineage of Woolf’s A Room of One’s Own or Gass’s On Being Blue, books that are virtuosic arguments for—and beautiful demonstrations of—the essential unity of writing and life.

Dark Horse
Author: Todd Rose
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0062683640
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 311
Book Description
For generations, we've been stuck with a cookie-cutter mold for success that requires us to be the same as everyone else, only better. This "standard formula" works for some people but leaves most of us feeling disengaged and frustrated. As much as we might dislike the standard formula, it seems like there's no other practical path to financial security and a fulfilling life. But what if there is? In the Dark Horse Project at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, bestselling author and acclaimed thought leader Todd Rose and neuroscientist Ogi Ogas studied women and men who achieved impressive success even though nobody saw them coming. Dark horses blaze their own trail to a life of happiness and prosperity. Yet what is so remarkable is that hidden inside their seemingly one-of-a-kind journeys are practical principles for achieving success that work for anyone, no matter who you are or what you hope to achieve. This mold-breaking approach doesn't depend on you SAT scores, who you know, or how much money you have. The secret is a mindset that can be expressed in plain English: Harness your individuality in the pursuit of fulfillment to achieve excellence. In Dark Horse, Rose and Ogas show how the four elements of the dark horse mindset empower you to consistently make the right choices that fit your unique interests, abilities, and circumstances and will guide you to a life of passion, purpose, and achievement.

Gunner
Author: Judy Andrekson

ISBN: 0887769055
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 105
Book Description
Each book in the True Horse Stories focuses on a contemporary horse from a different part of the world, and each animal is, in his or her own way, a hero. PBJ Decks Smokin Gun (Gunner) is an American Paint Horse, one of the many of Heather Lott Goodwin's herd, and a valuable show animal that won the World Championship Paint Horse title. When Hurricane Katrina passed over the Goodwin property, it took with it the fences, the cattle, and several horses. Heather and her family lived in their horse trailer for six weeks and considered themselves lucky to have safe, comfortable shelter. After the storm, they searched for the animals and recovered many of them. But three months passed before they located Gunner, a hundred miles away. They were told he was in terrible shape and should be put down. Nevertheless, Heather drove on washed-out roads to bring him home, starving, dehydrated, and blind in one eye. With the help of a vet and her mother, she nursed him back to health. Amazingly, nine months later, he was well enough to compete again in the World Championship Paint Horse Show. Gunner's story is a testament to love and to determination.
