    Your book has a mix of emotions!
    The subject you brought is so real and very delicate, and you aimed it in a very interesting and educational way.
    I love it! I hope it becomes a movie soon!
    "Pat Hart" was my favorite character.
    When you talked about your own experience with your "Pat Hart", and all she did for real for you, it touched me a lot!
    Since the moment I met you!
    It makes me realize that I have my "Pat Hart" as well and she mirrors YOU!
    For me and all my family you are not only our "Pat Hart" but our "Red" too.
    Thank you for still being around us for more than 20 years!!!!
    You are the best lawyer, writer, and tenacious friend we ever met in USA.
    God bless your journey! Keep Going!
    I am excited to see what else you have in store for all your fans!

    Undercurrent was an excellent book! A great plot with twists that keep you reading until the end! The author did a great job in accurately portraying characteristics of the "narcissistic" personality. It was very valuable to understand more about the effect of positive interactions between people and horses. Good information was incorporated on therapeutic equestrian therapy that can improve and enpower the quality of life for people of all ages. Well done!!

    This novel will capture the hearts of all those who are parents and/or those who are not! To make this book a great read the author has superbly used a mixture of all the emotional ingredients: love, hate, devotion, loyalty, mystery, betrayal, perserverance, and triumph. I wad completely engrossed with this story until the last page was turned.
