Australian author Renee Dahlia takes us back to Merindah Park for this rural romance about letting go of the past and the healing power of horses. Serena Bassett Home. It's been a long journey to recovery after the horse racing accident that nearly killed me, and now I'm ready to embrace life. Yes, I have a head injury, but that's not going to stop me creating a survival list of all the things I was too polite to do before. Number one on the list is to ride again. Also on the list: kiss Lee Edwards, my former boss and hot-as-hell neighbour. Not that I'm going to write that one down where anyone might see it. Lee Edwards The last six months have been hell. Not only did one of my horses nearly kill my stable jockey, Serena, but the accident wrecked my friendship with her brother and reminded me that I'm a failure. Just like my father said I'd be. I moved to Australia, the other side of the world, to get away from his negative voice and create a new life as a horse trainer. And now Serena is on my doorstep, demanding to learn to ride again. I can't do it. I won't be responsible for hurting her again. So why is it so hard to say no?
