Will and the gang have been training for weeks for the Dale Ridge derby weekend: a two day show with a hunter derby on the last day. The weekend was more of a week, and the derby more of a cutthroat competition than a fun participation event. Not to mention, the event was hosted at Dale Ridge--one of Horseland's biggest rivals.
When the Horseland riders arrive at the show, bad things slowly start to happen. A missing bit here, a lost spur there. It begins to snowball, tangling the teens in a web of sabotage and mystery.

Seventeen-year-old Chloe Matthews is done with guys, done with her ex, and done with the cowboys of the Grand Teton Mountains. She refuses to get hurt again. All that matters now are the horses. Every horse Chloe helps is another piece of herself put back together. But Jack Hunter, town favorite and arrogant cowboy, has most of the horse training business locked up and needs it to keep his dad's ranch open. Although, instead of using whips and spurs, Chloe trains with encouragement and trust, showing there's a better way. When a horse needs a safe haven, Chloe's only choice is to accept a bargain from Jack - she teaches him her training methods in exchange for a hidden pasture on his ranch. Working so closely with the flirtatious cowboy challenges Chloe's 'no guys' rule, until she learns her ex is out of prison and hell-bent on picking up where they left off.Complete

Hunters Grove Riding Academy: Riding From the Past [completed and in editing]
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!*Complete

After a string of questionable (and probably stupid) decisions, Jax Cross finds himself getting assigned to clean-up duty in the barn of the show jumping horses. Why? Well, because he in his petty nature decided to prank the show jumping riders, also know as the "elite" of their boarding school. In contrast to their selfish and privileged ways of living, Jax is seen as a playful, curious, and carefree cross-country rider who's fighting to compete well in eventing tournaments.

Blue
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.Complete
