If you rewrite a paragraph fifty times...
"If you rewrite a paragraph fifty times and forty-nine of them are terrible, that's fine; you only need to get it right once." - Tana French
Happy writing!

Imagine a hawk’s view of the magnificent bluegrass pastures of Kentucky horse country. Circle around the struggling remnant of a breeding farm, four beautiful horses grazing just beyond the paddock. Inside the ramshackle house is the human drama of a falling-apart family. Hack, the patriarch breeder and trainer, now aged and blind; his wife, Louetta, confined by rheumatoid arthritis. Jewel, their daughter, struggles to care for them and the horses while dealing with her own home and job, lackluster second husband, Eddie; and Carley, her drug-addicted daughter. Many days, she’s only sure she loves the horses. But she holds it all together. Until Cal shows up again. The brother Jewel already has reason to hate, throws the family into crisis when he meets up with Carley and gives Jewel reason to pick up a gun.
Every family has heartbreaks, failures, a black sheep or two. And some families end in tatters. But some stumble on the secret of survival: if the leader breaks down, others step up and step in. In this lyrical novel, when the inept, the addict and the ex-con members join to weave the family story back together, either the barn will burn to the ground or something bigger than any character will emerge, shining with hope.
Remember My Beauties grows large and wide as it reveals what may save us.
