Hank & Chloe

Chloe Morgan is thirty-three and lives in a corner of the shrinking canyonlands of Southern California. She waits tables part-time, trains horses in a small way, and is a thoroughly hardened Western woman the rest of the time. Wary and calloused, she gives her complete trust and love only to her horse and her dog.

Then an odd turn in the weather and a funeral held at sunrise bring her across the path of Henry Oliver, a quiet professor of folklore at the local college. Like Chloe, he has his own reasons for keeping people at a distance. When Hank steps into her makeshift cabin in the hills, Chloe has to face her losses and choose between the solitary life she always assumed was her fate and the love of a man who seems, at first, entirely wrong for her.
