Publisher's Summary

Jules Thornton didn't come to Ocala to make friends. She came to make a name for herself. Young, determined, and tough as nails, she's been swapping stable-work for saddle-time since she was a little kid - and it hasn't always been a fun ride.

Forever the struggling rider in a sport for the wealthy, all Jules has on her side is talent and ambition. She's certain all she needs to succeed are good horses, but will the eventing world agree? On her own at last, Jules is positive she's poised to become eventing's newest star, but soon finds she's making more enemies than friends in the close-knit equestrian community.

Little mistakes cost big - her students are losing faith in her; her owners are starting to pull their horses. And then there's the small matter of Peter Morrison, the handsome, on-the-rise event rider who keeps showing up when she least expects him. Jules is convinced that all she needs is good horses - not friends, not romance, not anyone's nose in her business. But it's just the beginning of the long, hot, Ocala summer, and as Jules tumbles through the highs and lows of a life with horses, she might find she'll need help after all to weather the coming storm.

Not what I had hoped for

It really felt like this book was written by a 15yr old. Very simplistic writing, hollow plot and characters. The main character herself was very unlikable being quite arrogant, selfish, rude, and immature. I kept hoping she would grow up a little, and that this book would improve...but it never did. The other characters did little to add to it as they were all quite one dimensional and most not terribly likable or mature either.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
