Summer is usually a time of heat exhaustion and riding at the crack of dawn in Florida but this year Emily is on the road with up and coming show jumper Rae Willingham. Going from show to show to win points on the summer circuit and trying to prove that she is ready to take her riding to the next level. And now that Hanna has gone, things are going to be a little less dramatic, at least that is what she hopes.
But when a new girl arrives to replace Esther’s niece, Emily wishes that Hanna had never left because now she has some real competition. Someone who is just as dedicated and eager to get ahead as Emily is and as tensions rise between the two of them, the summer will become one long game to see who is the best.
And when Emily runs into someone at a show who is a part of her troubled past, riding a horse that she loves, her resolve will be shaken. They will have to ride against each other and in this endless procession of show days, hope that the best rider will win.
