Hunters Grove Riding Academy: the four words that every equestrian in the United States dream of going to. You have a chance to become one of the top riders in the world. When quirky 15-year old Roxanne Matthews rides into the academy, she hopes it was because of her riding, not her daddy's money. Whilst there for only a few hours, she becomes friendly with a new enemy: Scarlett White, and maybe a little too friendly with lovestruck Sebastian Anderson. When she and Scarlett find out about a secret that was sworn to never be told, they have to team up to destroy whatever created it. Through competitions, teamwork, tears, blood, and determination (mostly teamwork and determination, though), Roxanne has to make it through the first year at Hunters Grove, and prove she's worth it all while forgetting about her past and thinking what the future holds for her. *all ideas are mine. if you see anything that sounds somewhat familiar to anyone else's story, please let me know :) enjoy my story! read, follow, vote, comment, and share!*
