✦ Synopsis

#1 The California Novels - Cool, gracious, international-relations attorney Whitney Benedict hasn't completely given up on marriage, but she does have a checklist of qualities for the man of her dreams: affluence, intelligence, good looks and no baggage. When she travels to California to make an offer on Gabriel Mendoza's famous Lipizzan horses for a European client she encounters a man who doesn't have anything on her list: he is divorced, near financial ruin, and, with his mother, is trying to raise two teenagers and an autistic younger daughter. When Whitney's stay at the hacienda is unexpectantly prolonged, she tries to establish some kind of order in the dysfunctional family and discovers that horses and children have a way of rearranging the best-laid plans--and the course of her heart. As the American Library Association writes, "Baker's heartwarming romance focuses on the heartbreak and joy that family brings."
