Just as in "Hope Rising", many of these stories made me cry.
I was disappointed by a few errors that should have been caught by an editor, and there were a couple of sentences that I found confusing. I don't remember having those issues with the previous book.
But, same as the first, it's filled with wonderful stories and I enjoyed it.

I LOVED this book! Kim is able to take each circumstance that happens to one of her beloved rescued horses or to a broken child needing to be rescued and relate it in such a way that shows you her great depth of compassion and wisdom. This book is full of inspiration and encouragement. I love the way Kim can tell a story. This is an amazing book of hope and restoration and evidence of how much God cares for each of us and is involved in our lives. You can laugh with her in the high mountain experiences and cry with her at the lowest valley times, but either way, you will be blessed.
An excellent book about Kim and her husband who took land that wouldn't even grow trees and turned it into a ranch for children who have physical and emotional scars to overcome, amazingly enough, the horses they use at the ranch have also been emotionally and physically abused. By putting kids and horses together they both seem to heal. This book is the stories about the ranch and all that has happened there. Very uplifting, a must-read book.
