Always There (Heartland #20)

When her mother died, Amy took over the work of caring for the horses. But now, Amy is facing a greater challenge: going to college and leaving her mom's work behind. A stunning finale to the series.

Even at graduation, Amy cannot concentrate on her accomplishments. She is distracted by her concern for a sick horse at Heartland. College is weeks away, but she dreads having to leave her home and her work at the stable -- the work she took over after her mother's death. It doesn't help that Lou, Joni, and Ty -- her boyfriend -- are already making decisions without her, anticipating life after she is away at school. When a new horse arrives for treatment, everyone seems wary of telling Amy his story. As she starts to treat him, his fear seems a mystery.
