The winter show circuit is in full swing and the only thing Emily Dickenson cares about is winning the Snowball Cup. It’s the highlight of the show season and the winner will walk away with two thousand dollars and a private weekend jumping clinic with renowned show jumping legend Miguel Rodriguez. With her mom putting all her savings into the winter wedding of doom to scumbag Derek, Emily needs that money to pay for Bluebird’s upkeep. And the jumping clinic could certainly help her deal with the way Bluebird almost smacks her in the face every time he takes a jump.
The only problem is that Jess is more determined than ever to see Emily fail. She has her own super pony that jumps just as high and fast as Bluebird, without all the theatrics. And with Ethan abandoning Fox Run Farm and defecting to Sand Hill Stables, if she can ruin the farm Emily loves in the process, all the better.
So when Jess’s dirty games end in Esther being temporarily deported back to Sweden, the Sand Hill crew is left to fend for themselves. Can three kids really run a farm and win their blue ribbons at the same time? And will Emily still have time to talk her mother out of marrying a monster?
