Heartland #2 After the Storm

This book was totally Awesome! Just like the first one by Lauren Brooke it is emotional and very well written. It is realictic and you never want to put it down. There is never a dull moment. Like when: "You can't balme me!" she screamed. "It wasn't my fault!" Amy yealled with the lead rope in her hands. I felt like I was there inside the story! I recomend this book to anyone who likes to read exciting stories. But have a napkin for the sad parts. I hope Lauren Brooke writes more of these books.
