Could this really be the end of Seabreeze Equestrian Center?But Grace didn't make it this far in the horse business to give up now. She's not going down without a fight. Grace is determined to save Seabreeze, her family home, and the business she's built for herself - even when the wilderness itself seems to fight back.With unlikely friendships, late in life challenges, and a lead character with grit and enduring spirit, Show Barn Blues invites readers to discover the Florida they never knew existed.Readers say:Delightfully addictive barn drama. - HorseNation.comHaving worked in the horse industry over twenty years I absolutely feel like I've known several women like Grace. - Amazon reviewI loved the storyline, showing the drive to hold on to your dream in spite of all adversity, with nothing but sheer determination.
