Roaring Rory Gallatin's girl...
Daughter of the town trouble-maker...
Trailer trash wannabe...
Seventeen-year-old Darcy Gallatin has heard it all, especially when the local minister uses her father as a bad example.
Everyone knows she's different from the rest of the Gallatin family. She earned a scholarship to prestigious Stewart Falls Academy, is on the honor roll and is a varsity cheerleader.
She has a dream nobody can steal. She'll study hard, attend a prominent university, and become a large-animal veterinarian, specializing in horses. Then, she'll return to the small town of Pine Ridge and show everyone what a Gallatin can do. This is her last year at home. Next December she'll be away at college, so she decides to make the holiday season special for her ten-year-old brother. She won't let her father ruin Christmas for the whole family, not again.
Disaster strikes when her dad injures Darcy's horse, Whisky. Can Darcy ever forgive her father, or has he finally crossed the line and made her hate him? Even Darcy doesn't know for sure, but one thing is certain—she needs to change things. And fast. But how?
