4 STARS!
An emotional journey through years of hurt and disappointment in the lives of several characters. The power of forgiveness is shining bright … forgiving yourself, forgiving those who hurt you, and most of all, forgiving the pain that has kept you standing still all these years.
Ruby Baxter is 31 years old and has nothing to show for her life other than a sassy teenage daughter that she feels like she’s failed. She’s moving them to Elkhart, Kansas in hopes that a new start will get their relationship back on track and be what they both need in life to make them happy. When she received a letter from her birth father, she’s shocked because she didn’t even know he existed. She decides to stop in Unforgiven, Oklahoma to see what he wants, and what his story is.
Hank McArthur is none too warm when they arrive … at least to her. He and Mia hit it off right away and he takes her daughter under his wing and teaches her about horses. Ruby has to learn to cope with the answers she finds there from Hank, and along the way, how to make her daughter happy again. Ranch forman, Joe Dawson, is there beside her each step of the way.
