Seventeen-year-old Jane had found the horse of her dreams-or so she thought. Windsong had the breeding, training, and the flashy good looks to win medals at national competitions, but conservative, shy Jane wasn't sure she was up to the challenge of riding the temperamental beast. He may have been an imported Swedish Warmblood, and he may have had Grand Prix dressage training, but he was wild. When her spirited, new horse races out of control, help comes unexpectedly-and unwelcomed-from a loathsome cowboy, a horribly mean-spirited, condescendingly brusque gorgeous black-haired, azure-eyed reining champion, who is positive Jane is most definitely not up to the challenge. As these two from opposite ends of the horse world are forced to work together, tempers blaze and horseshoes fly, but something else begins to spark. Can Jane overcome her fear and preconceptions to win her goal of competing in the National Junior Rider Championships...and not lose her heart at the same time?
This story about a teen dressage competitor is the first of a series of three books following her developing career in national competition. This book is not just for horse-crazy teens though, it will captivate women and young adults who love outdoor sports and romance. If you have experience with horses or other outdoor sports, you already know that horse showing or sport competition is an adventure; and, let me tell you, horse showing in national competition is equestrian adventure at its most exhilarating. Are you up to the challenge?
