Rumours are so easy to start. A whisper here, a whisper there, passed on person by person. This is 12 year old Robin's daily existence at school...only it's worse, because the rumours are about her. She finds solitude at her family's quarter horse ranch, the place Robin calls home. She's happy the way things are there. They breed, show and train the horses, prepare some to sell. That's her life, and the way it always has been. But when money stops rolling in, her parents come up with the idea to open a riding school for western riders, looking to learn, gain skill and compete. Robin isn't too excited about this at first, but soon, she decides it may not be so bad. And when a girl Robin's age joins, they seem to instantly connect, and they become friends ...could this be Robin's chance to re-write her life?
