Miranda is devastated when her mother remarries and announces they are moving to Homer, Alaska. Sure that she will never fit in, young Miranda resigns herself to a bleak future in her new home. But when she encounters a dainty, fragile-looking paint filly, her life begins to change. The neglected little horse and the new girl in town find each other on the beaches of rural Alaska—two beings desperately alone and in need of comfort, companionship, and a way to heal their broken hearts — and their friendship opens doors to opportunities they never thought they’d see. Orphans of the Heart is a touching story, with vivid imagery and characters that will stay with you long after the last page is turned.
