Coming Home

In the first title, Amy and her mother are in a fierce trailer accident after rescuing an abandoned horse. Amy's mother is killed immediately, and Amy is rushed to hospital in a serious condition while the horse is sent to a local vet. When Amy wakes from her coma, she must face returning to life at the stable without her mother. She cowers in her room after returning from the hospital, denying the comfort she could find in the familiar smell of grain and the welcoming nickers of the horse. Not until a pony falls terribly ill does Amy consider her mother's absolute commitment to horses; then she realizes it is her own deepest passion as well.

After the Storm

Amy attempts to treat Spartan, the horse involved in the accident that killed Amy's mother. But Amy soon learns Spartan is not the only who has wounds yet to heal. Although Amy is helping out with the horses at Heartland again, she is still weighted by a sense of guilt for her mother's death. And she misses her mum too much to dismiss her fear that she was responsible for the trailer crash. Furthermore, Amy's trying to care for Spartan, the horse they saved before the accident, but Spartan is an everyday reminder of the wreck and how it changed everything. And for Spartan, Amy is a reminder of the crash as well - no matter what attempts she makes , Spartan is vicious towards her. At the very sight of her he lashes out, rearing defiantly and baring his teeth. Faulting herself, Amy feels she can't blame Spartan for hating her. Then she realizes Spartan will never forgive her until she forgives herself.

Breaking Free

Heartland is a horse farm nestled in the hills of Virginia, but it's much more than that. Heartland is like no other place - it's a place where scars of the past can be healed, where frightened and abused horses can learn to trust again. Pegasus is all Amy has left of her past, but he's steadily growing weaker. Amy's trying to care for him and hold Heartland together. She's trying to do just what her mother would have done, but everything is beginning to unravel. It will take all Amy's courage to let go of her mother's legacy, but it is the only way she will break free.


Taking Chances
Amy is stuck. The new stable-hand, Ben, seems really nice. He's a fantastic rider, and his horse is gorgeous, plus he's the nephew of Heartland's most prestigious client. But he doesn't seem to want to be at the stables - and he's not pulling his weight. Amy has to sort him out - but she can't risk losing his aunt's horses....



Come What May

The fifth book in this series from Working Partners, creators of Animal Ark. Heartland is a farm in Virginia, where physically and psychologically damaged horses are brought to be healed. After the tragic death of her mother, 15-year old Amy Fleming is running the farm with her older sister Lou, her Grandad, and stable hands Ty and Ben. In Come What May, Amy is stunned when Lou reveals that she has been in contact with their estranged father. Can Amy bring herself to meet him, after he abandoned the family so many years ago?


One Day You'll Know
Heartland is a place of recovery and rescue, for damaged people as well as damaged and mistreated horses. But even in such a haven, emotions can run high. Since Amy's mom died, Ty has always been her greatest support in running the stables and caring for the horses-but is their relationship about to change forever?


Out of the Darkness

A famous racehorse has been sent to Heartland, physically and emotionally scarred after a tragic fire at his stable. Gallant Prince will never race again - but if Amy and Ty can't heal his emotional wounds, he may have to be put to sleep. Heartland's reputation is staked on his recovery.


Thicker than water

It's been a long time since Amy has seen her father. Now she's waiting for someone who seems like a stranger to arrive and shatter the peace of Heartland. After twelve years apart, how can he b her father now? Will he understand who she is, and what matters in her world? Amy's life is Heartland and its work - but then horses are her father's life, too. With all that's come between them, can their love of horses bring them together again.


Every New Day

Amy is faced with a problem that she just can't solve. How can she make a demoralised horse want to show jump again? An old Native American horse healer, deep in the Appalachian Mountains, could be her only chance to save Mercury's career. But can Amy cope with being so far from Heartland? Especially when she and Ty have fought bitterly over this horse...


Tomorrow's Promise

Heartland is a place like no other - a place where the scars of the past can be healed, a place where frightened and abused horses learn to trust again. When Amy meets Daniel, she is stunned. She can't figure out how someone with so much love for his horse can be so cold to everyone else. But as Amy gets to know Daniel, she begins to understand him. She respects that he won't give in to the spectacle of the show circuit-and that he doesn't care what others say about his horse. Daniel rides Amber like it's the two of them against the world. Amy knows they could be the best one day-but how far will Daniel go to win?

True Enough
