1. Coming Home
In the first title, Amy and her mother are in
a fierce trailer accident after rescuing an
abandoned horse. Amy's mother is killed
immediately, and Amy is rushed to hospital in
a serious condition while the horse is sent to
a local vet. When Amy wakes from her coma, she
must face returning to life at the stable
without her mother. She cowers in her room
after returning from the hospital, denying the
comfort she could find in the familiar smell
of grain and the welcoming nickers of the
horse. Not until a pony falls terribly ill
does Amy consider her mother's absolute
commitment to horses; then she realises it is
her own deepest passion as well.
2. After the Storm
Amy attempts to treat Spartan, the horse
involved in the accident that killed Amy's
mother. But Amy soon learns Spartan is not the
only who has wounds yet to heal. Although Amy
is helping out with the horses at Heartland
again, she is still weighted by a sense of
guilt for her mother's death. And she misses
her mum too much to dismiss her fear that she
was responsible for the trailer crash.
Furthermore, Amy's trying to care for Spartan,
the horse they saved before the accident, but
Spartan is an everyday reminder of the wreck
and how it changed everything. And for
Spartan, Amy is a reminder of the crash as
well - no matter what attempts she makes ,
Spartan is vicious towards her. At the very
sight of her he lashes out, rearing defiantly
and baring his teeth. Faulting herself, Amy
feels she can't blame Spartan for hating her.
Then she realises Spartan will never forgive
her until she forgives herself.

mother's legacy, but it is the only way she
will break free.
