Parts of this book were very beautiful. If it had focussed more on Grace and her horse, rather than the romance element that it really didn't need it would have been better. It was the end though that ruined it for me. It was so unnecessary, almost like the author used it so his characters wouldn't have to make a decision some readers wouldn't like. The truth is less readers like what he did instead. Overall it disappointed me, it had so much promise to start with but that totally faded.
