An extraordinary story about a very ordinary woman. Born and bred in a small community in the south-west of Ireland, this is a tale that starts plainly, moves into equestrian adventure, climaxes with three horrific relationships, and, like all good stories, has a happy ending. Katherine Connolly loves animals. Growing up in a family where her father worked in a rescue centre and her mother raced greyhounds, she was always surrounded by them. Throughout her life they have been her rock. Through the bullying, family deaths, near fatal accidents, mentally and physically abusive relationships, and a life-changing medical diagnosis, the animals have been the one thing Katherine could come home to, no matter where she was. A true story depicting a simple childhood haunted by family illness and death. A promising career in the equestrian business that took Katherine around the world, working with top show-jumping yards, only to be brought crashing down by a tragic accident. The gritty details of three very different and cruel relationships that would have left any person at the brink of sanity. The medical diagnosis that saved her life but also ended much of it. And finally, the happy ending that she always dreamed of. Welcome to an inspiring tale about a remarkable woman.

Katherine Connolly* is an ordinary woman from an ordinary place in Ireland who has lived an unbelievable life in a short space of time. She writes with an authentic Irish lilt and relates her story to us through raw and heartfelt language. From a simple farming background comes the tale of an incredibly strong woman who, in the face of many adversities, is still standing and keeps marching forward, with the help of family and her closest friends, her animals. A shy country girl, all she ever wanted was to be loved and to lead an uncomplicated life. Her big heart can be found in all the family and friend relationships she has, but life was against her in so many ways. In this, her first book, read about her search for a trouble-free existence, and how many times the odds were stacked against her - a woman with simple needs and low demands who managed to find herself in every deep hole life could offer up. Her autobiography is an intriguing tale you will find hard to stop reading.
