Ruth's life isn't what she imagined it would be. An accident when she was a teenager upended her life and career plans and the consequences are still echoing through her day to day. 

Josh's life isn't what he imagined it'd be by now either. Finding a love like his parents had is more challenging than he expected. Especially when his dad's fame and family business makes it harder to be sure that he's wanted for who he is, not what he has. 

Sparks fly when they meet. Assumptions too. Her horsepower might have four hooves, his, four tyres, but they've got more in common than they realise.

What happens when we challenge the stories we tell ourselves? Can Ruth and Josh put aside the narratives they've built and rewrite their lives, together? 

An opposites attract, slow burn, grumpy/sunshine romance, where he falls first, she takes a chance, and a grumpy donkey tries to steal the show.


Note: this is my putting my word count where my mouth is. I've always said I wanted to write a novel, but I just didn't have the time. Well now I have the time. Let's see how this goes!
