When fiercely independent equestrian Emma finds herself ranch-sitting for a friend while caring for her injured horse over Christmas, she clashes with brooding veteran Noal — only to discover that the magic of the season may be what they need to heal their hearts.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
