No final de um beco escuro, há um prédio antigo onde funcionam vários estabelecimentos. Um deles é a Clínica Kokoro, um lugar que apenas as almas que mais precisam de ajuda conseguem encontrar.

If Jules was sure about one thing, it was that she would never become a riding instructor. But suddenly she is the lead instructor at the Alachua Eventing Co-Op, and though Jules never thought she’d be so sentimental, she loves training up a new generation of riders. Her own riding has never been better, and Jules will be able to afford a promising new horse if she and Dynamo can win at the Central Park Horse Show in the fall.

This time, Jules might finally be in over her head. Pete is away in California, and Jules’ promising new horse, Confident Liar, is proving to be a tough ride. Not to mention, her employers are putting the pressure on, expecting more from Jules than she can possibly provide. And Evan Folkes is dangling a shot at international competition that Jules is hard-pressed to resist. She has the support of her old friends and her beloved students, but she’s being pulled in a million different directions.

Though Jules has spent her adult life bouncing from one farm to another, it never mattered: home was always where her horses were. But now, newly engaged and pregnant, she is yearning for a place she can truly call home. Alachua Eventing Co-Op once felt like that, but the co-op board is making Jules’ life difficult again, and her good friend (and professional rival) Kit seems destined to take Jules’ spot as head instructor. When Jules’ doctor forbids her from getting into the saddle until the baby comes, Jules has a full-blown existential crisis. Who is she if she’s not on horseback?
