If Wishes Were Horses: Part 3
Curtiss Ann Matlock

THIS IS PART THREE. It is best to read the three books in order.
Etta’s precious child has arrived. Etta is now a mother, with an even stronger desire to hold on to her beloved home.
And she is a woman now freed from the confines of a pregnant body. She can ride Little Gus, and she can fall in love. She is looking at Johnny, and he is looking back.
Where will they go from here?
“Why is it so hard for you to let me do things for you?” he asked, his voice sharp and bringing her eyes around to him.
Johnny wants to give her the world, and he wants to do it as a man on his own terms. He wants to build his own ranch, and he wants Etta to leave the home she has struggled to save, and that he has helped her to save, to come join him.
But Etta wants the home that is hers, the security and place. She wants Johnny to stay and join in with her.
Will he go away?
Etta has a strong and stubborn heart, and she must learn to bend, to believe, and to discover that dreams are born in faith. Johnny must have the resilient heart that shows her how.
This is the story of their struggle and daring, and their glorious triumph of enduring love.
