- Synopsis
- Kent Walsh, his wife Teri, and their daughter Sarah run a horse boarding stable and Western tack and rodeo gear store in central Arizona. From the outside looking in, they’re the perfect family. When Kent’s estranged sister, Ava, is arrested, her street-hardened daughter, Summer, runs away, choosing to live on the street rather than be sent away. When Summer is rescued from the clutches of a dangerous gang, the judge orders her to stay with relatives pending outcome of the trial or enter the foster care system. Life with the Walsh family is a dramatic change for Summer—rules, respect, and faith have been missing from her life. She’s expected to pitch in with the family business and learn to groom the few remaining boarding horses.
