Resumen del Editor

Places can be vessels for happy memories as well as sad ones. For Kora Garver, Horseback Inn is one of those places. Inherited from her great-aunt, she spends her time caring for its guests and horses. Truth be known, it’s the thing that’s kept her going, helped her to push through her darkness. But her darkness has darkened to the point that she can no longer see the light. Once a beautiful woman, at 40, she sees herself as scarred and undesirable. Miserable and alone, ashamed of who she’s been and what she’s done, retraumatized every time she closes her eyes, she’s decided to end her life.

At 17, Finn Warner lost what most take for granted: her sight. But she didn’t let that hold her back. She graduated from medical school at the top of her class. She finished her residency in psychiatry. She established a lucrative private practice. At 43, most of her dreams have been fulfilled, with one exception - that she has no one with whom to share her life. In a world where attraction often begins with sight, she’s come to accept that, in all likelihood, she’ll never have an intimate partner. But she has a rewarding career, good friends, and a great dog. That’s enough. The handsome woman counts her blessings each night and recognizes that she has more than most.

When a blinding snowstorm leaves Finn in a snowdrift, she’ll stay at Horseback Inn, her favorite place to visit as a kid. While there, she’ll be reunited with Kora, the girl she held for hours when she was 14 years old, the girl she’s never stopped thinking about, one of only a handful of girls that she’s ever held that close. When Kora takes a tumble, she’ll have the opportunity to get even closer. But she’s not sure that Kora is a lesbian. And if that’s not enough, Kora’s loaded down with baggage, more than any person should have to carry. After passion ignites, Kora will push her away. Snowbound during the final countdown to suicide, two women as different as night and day are given a chance at love. But to seize it, they must navigate a difficult path through the darkness.

That was a good book

The story was excellent, well written, the MC were wonderful. Narration was excellent.
Really recommend

Good Story

Good listen, some of it hard to listen to because of real world experiences.
Definitely gets deep in the story with out over sexualizing it.

It was very decent

I thought the narrator talked a bit too fast, and not let the dialogue settle in before moving to the next piece, they just barreled through like they were in a rush. besides that the story was ok, some of the scenes felt awkward. I felt a lot of the conversations weren't portrayed like what real people would say at times. The one thing I did really enjoy was after the big climax they really got into some hard details about the recovery of her depression and suicidal thoughts. with her coming to terms about her anxieties and life and ultimately understanding herself.

I came here for the sub genre of lesbians on a ranch and stayed for the emotional support and shorter audio length. solid 7/10 with the whole story being pretty wholesome at the end.
