Fake it till you make it, right? Meg Beckett has packed up everything she has, which isn't much, and left her life in Georgia behind for a new start in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. She knows how lucky she is to have gotten a job at Heart & Soul Ranch; just like she knows she can't afford to lose it. But Meg hasn't been entirely honest with her new employer. Her horse experience isn't nearly as extensive as she talked it up to be and it doesn't take her long to realize that she's in way over her head. There's no way she's going back to the dead end future she left behind, but she'd better learn fast if she doesn't want to find herself out of a home and a job. Heart and Soul Ranch is her escape, but will her past catch up with her? By Heart & By Soul is a prequel novella in the Hooves & Hearts Series. This equestrian women's fiction novella has all the small town vibes, a hint of humor, and horsewomen who support each other and love their horses.
