✦ Synopsis


A young woman who used cutting to cope with traumatic events in her life learns lessons in healing at a treatment program on a working ranch. -When a terrible accident fractured her family, the only relief Kirsten could find was carving tiny lines into her skin, burying her pain in her flesh. The pain she caused herself was manageable compared to the emotional pain that raged inside. After her boyfriend betrays her, Kirsten reaches for the one thing that gives her a sense of control -- but this time the cut isn't so tiny, and she lands in the psych hospital. When her pastor mentions a treatment program on a working ranch, Kirsten goes. Ever so slowly, she embraces healing -- and learns there's nothing that cannot be redeemed.;When a terrible accident fractured her family, the only relief Kirsten could find was carving tiny lines into her skin, burying her pain in her flesh.
