Heartland is a horse farm nested in hills of Virginia, but it's much more than that. Heartland is a place like no other – a place where the scars of the past can be healed, a place where frightened and abused horses learn to trust again.

Ever since Am's mother died, Ty has seemed more like part of the family than just a stable hand. He and Amy share the responsibility of maintaining Heartland and caring for the horses. So much has changed around them, yet Amy refuses to believe that their relationship could change too. But when she finds herself torn by a family crisis, it's Ty turns to forsupport.
