Entering the ripe age of seventeen, Rebekah Wills is expected to be married. Until she does so, she remains under her father's watchful and cruel eye. 
Angering her father is all that she wishes to avoid, but that is inevitable when she purchases a spirited mare that refuses to complete farm work. 
When the rumors are impossible to keep from soaring into Rebekah's ears, she realizes that there is a flame inside her. Seeing that same flame spark inside her horse and a childhood friend, she embarks on a journey that could find her death, or find her freedom. If her father knew what she was doing inside his office at midnight, she could be hanged.

Caught in the Moonlight by RoseyAnna92

*REWRITE AVAILABLE ON MY PROFILE* From the time Ronnie found the horse to the night it was finally back with her, her life is a constant whirlwind. Between the boys who come in and out of her life and the constant injuries and the vibrant cast of characters that weave their way into their life, there's never a dull moment for her. Even when she gets a chance to lay back and hit the hay, there's more turmoil around the corner. With a base in a homey Southern-style Kentucky setting and an exit in a hard-hitting heartbreak, this story shows the real-world twists and turns of unpredictable life. Because, as we all know, real life may have a central plotline, but that's never always the main focus. Such is true for Ronnie, and this is her story.

Blue by CJLaurence

Blue is living example of how brutal the foster system is. The only way she knows how to protect herself is by pushing everyone away, to detach herself from those around her. Trust isn't something she knows how to do. Self-sabotage on the other hand-it's her best talent. After another failed attempt at finding a family, Blue decides to run. She'd rather take her chances alone on the streets than go through another gruelling process of trying to fit in with a new family who would never understand her. Convinced she's destined to be alone, fate intervenes and Blue cross paths with a horse who seems just as lost as she is. She can't explain it, the undeniable connection she feels with the stallion. But whenever she looks at him, she can see her own pain and fear reflect in his eyes-something they both seem to find comfort in. A deep friendship blossoms. A dynamic of mutual understanding and trust is found in the most unlikely way. But with it comes the shadows of a past that threatens to tear them apart and ruin the special bond forged between them. This is a tale of how two lost souls find hope in the most unexpected way, and their fight to protect it.
