Injured, terrified, and without water or even a shirt on his back, Carlos knows well they could perish in the heat of the coming day.The will to survive drives this young man and this old horse onward. What follows over the next twenty years is an unpredictable journey in which Carlos encounters an unforgettable cast of characters, both human and equine, who not only transform his life but who are, in turn, healed and transformed by his growing capacity to love. Is it chance or destiny that leads him to a ranch in San Miguel Who could predict he would be adopted by Helen, a schoolteacher who provides the education he was denied as a child. Or that her husband Tom would not only teach him everything about the love and care of horses, but also restore the confidence and self-respect his birth father had tried to destroy Could Carlos ever imagine that one day he would be called upon to save Tonya, a deaf teenage, from a violent assault Or that she would have an unspoken capacity to communicate with horses, especially with Pinto, a spirited American Paint who would allow no one else to place a saddle upon his back, let alone ride him >From the bonds of his new family, Carlos learns to believe in himself and to trust others. He falls in love. He paints. His developing character and capacity for love are forged by the personalities of the people and animals he meets throughout his odyssey. The terrified young man who escapes parental abuse and an early death, develops into a man with great capacity to love and protect others.
