Prologue
Willow was out riding on her family ranch one day just wanting to be alone. She often came out this way to think. Being the only girl in a family full of men was hard. She never knew her mother because she died giving birth to her.
She always felt her dad didn't love her because of it. Her father once told her that her mother would always ride out to the lake. So, Willow found this was also her favorite place to ride. It made her feel close to her mother. The lake was peaceful, but to others it was nothing special.
One day when she was really upset, she saw a beautiful woman riding a horse. The horse was the most beautiful she had ever seen. The woman looked familiar, but who was she? When Willow said something to the woman she took off.
She tried going after her, but it was if the woman had vanished. There wasn't another ranch for miles around. So where did she come from, and who was she?
The next day Willow went to the lake hoping to see the mystery woman again. She wondered if anyone else had seen her. When she asked her brothers, they all said she was crazy. They said she was just imaging stuff and losing her mind. Was she just imagining the woman?
Could she be losing it as her brothers had said? She wondered if she would ever see the mystery woman again. All she could think about was that woman, and her horse. She was scared to go back to the lake in fear it was just her imagination. She needed to see her again. To find out why she felt so connected to this shadow rider....
