It’s the start of the summer show season and the beginning of the Talent Scout series. Emily and her jumper pony Bluebird feel like they are ready to take on the world. Her father’s suspension has been lifted, Missy is once again supporting her career and all her horses both old and new are training well. It feels like nothing could go wrong.
But Jess is back from Europe where she has been training with top riders and she has a new horse and new attitude to go with her fancy makeover and it’s not the attitude that Emily is expecting. Is it possible that she has turned over a new leaf once and for all?
And while everything is fine on the horse front, family life is not going so swimmingly. There is news from Wisconsin and it’s not good. Emily now knows that her own mother is trapped in an abusive relationship and she wants to help but how can a fourteen year old fight for her mother when she can’t even talk to her? And when disaster strikes at the Talent Scout show, will it rip Emily's world in two?
