Rescued horses, hurting children and volunteers came together at Hope Reins, a very special ranch. After experiencing mutual trust and unconditional love, they touched each other‘s lives in profound ways. Joey was popular and well loved. He was sweet, beautiful, brave, loving and gentle, and he was blind. There is beauty, even in brokenness. I loved this excellent book!
