Through an inmate training program at the prison, she began to restructure her life by learning repurpose retired Thoroughbred racehorses. But now she`s starting over yet again, alone in the world—until she meets Gil Winters.

A single father, Gil is seeking a new form of therapy for his wheelchair-bound son, Edward. Gil is confined in his own prison of doubt and distrust stemming from his history of abandonment by his mother and a drug-addicted ex-wife. Trust issues and unbroken ties to old wounds are at the heart of the struggles both Maggie and Gil face.

When Edward`s mother resurfaces and creates havoc, Edward`s life is threatened by her careless behavior, and Maggie is forced to choose between her new-found freedom and getting Edward the life-saving help he needs.
