Impelled

If the course of your life was suddenly altered, what would you do? For twenty-two year old Emma Walker, life's challenges consist of dealing with a bad breakup, balancing work and finishing up college - pretty average. However, there is one thing that has always set Emma apart from her peers. It has been her happy place, her motivation and the one true love of her life since the age of twelve: Horses. When Emma unexpectedly finds herself drawn to a horse named Valentine that she has a special connection with, (after dealing with the death of her first horse), she begins training the mare to compete in the sport of show-jumping. One seemingly ordinary day, Emma receives news that impels her to make a life altering decision that turns her world upside-down, taking her on a journey to live in place far from everything she's ever known. While Emma is fighting to create a new future for herself, she is surprised to see guy from her past life back home show up in the present. But is she ready to trust him, given her circumstances? Emma wonders if he is as trustworthy as he seems, especially since his arrival is timed perfectly with a threatening note. And what about Michael, the farm's live-in handyman, who is slowly becoming her friend and confidant despite his original aloofness? Emma's decision will not only change her life ways she never anticipated, but will put her directly in the path of someone who will threaten everything she loves-as well as her and Valentine's lives. Can Emma have the future she has worked so hard to build or will an unknown stranger bent on destroying her do so first? Impelled will take you on a journey with Emma as she and Valentine are pulled into twists & turns, put in danger, take you to some familiar USA horse capitals and then on a wild ride you will never see coming.

No, it does not, and you'll find all that and more in Sarah Welk Baynum's debut novel, Impelled." - An excerpt from the Horse & Style Magazine article by Laurie Berglie "A suspenseful, romantic, page-turning story about a young woman's search for success in the Florida show jumping world. Emma Walker is starting a new life. One in which she lets go of everything to begin again, everything that is, except her love of horses. Impelled is a lovely debut novel that gets the horse facts right and is difficult to put down.
