Making it international. Isn't that the dream of many equestrians out there? Big or small, many dream of riding into an arena with thousands in the stands, sitting upon a beautiful mount and gracefully moving around the arena, or flying over jumps. That has always been Aurora's dream. That is where Willow Acre Stables come into play. When Aurora was thirteen she started working here as a groom. This gave her the opportunity for a once a week lesson. It is a high end stable and she never would have been able to afford lessons without working for them.
When she turned twenty and was still working at the stables, one day it was late at night and the head trainer walked into the arena to find Aurora mounted on one of the old school horses, performing a near flawless dressage test. Surprised at the amount of talent in this groom, he decided that having her on their team was a good idea. So after a lot of discussing and pondering, they have made a deal. They will find her the perfect horse, give her a few more lessons and soon she will be competing with their team.
Aurora is beyond ecstatic and this is a miracle for her. She knows this is only so they can have more fame and hopefully make more money, but really she doesn't care as long as she gets to ride. There will be drama, friendship, romance, and a lot of hurt. But there will also be, adventure, action and tons of fun.
