About this listen

Sarah's grandfather was a horseman of rare talent - only the exceptional are allowed into France's elite riding academy, Le Cadre Noir. But life took an unexpected turn, and now from a council estate in east London, the Captain hopes to train his granddaughter towards a better life.

Natasha is a lawyer whose job is to represent the best interests of children. Her confidence in her judgement has been shaken and her marriage has died - but an encounter with Sarah may lead to Natasha learning all she needs to know about life from a fourteen-year-old girl and a large horse named Boo.

So good..so many tears

I loved this book. I cried so many times throughout. I found it so easy to fall in and feel like I was there. Didn’t want it to end. Highly recommend. Especially if you’re a horse lover.

Males voices ruined the book

The story was wonderful however the character that played the male voices ruined the story and I believe did not portray the personality written in the words. It made me not want to listen at all. However the story line was so wonderful i kept going back.

My Favourite Book By Jo Jo Moyes

I have read a number of books by this author and enjoyed all of them, some more than others. However this book is by far my favourite. The narration was very well done and the story incredibly compelling.

As a mother of a horse loving daughter I could completely relate to the incredible relationship people can have with horses and the wealth of gifts that relationship can provide. However i think anyone could enjoy this well written story.
