In this sequel to Finding Talent, things take a twist when Sadie Lawrence is asked to train a herd of twelve shires, that are to be used in the winter fair pulling hay rides and horse drawn carriages. She's reluctant at first, but when she reaches a financial crisis, she's forced to accept...after all she is getting paid a butt load. Her friendship with Ryan continues, but she's sure that she doesn't want it to go beyond that. The only problem is that Ryan may want to go a little but farther than friends. Not only does all this happen around her, but her best friend somehow manages to get Sadie, herself and Ryan lost while taking them on a overnight ride. Will Sadie find the courage to hold everything together? (It is advised to read Finding Talent first, so things will make more sense)
