country countryboy cowboy english equestrian equine eventing family horse horses ranch romance teen teenagers teens wattys2017 western

An equestrian's life is never just about victory gallops and ribbons. It's about enjoying the freedom that comes with a horse - and everything in between. 

After years of living with her mother, Charlie is sent away to live with her father at Toro Ranch. Charlie was raised on English eventing and is shaken when suddenly thrown into the mix of western saddles and Quarter Horses. The new cowboy environment isn't the only change Charlie has to get used to; family time is a big factor in her new routine.

There is an entire world between the rider and the ground, and that world has four legs, a mane and tail, a heart big enough to steal you away.

Hooves on the Heart: Book 1 Start of Steele by kbfoster01

The Fagan family has always loved horses, and now they're making their lifelong dream a reality-starting a horse farm in Tennessee, specializing in race-bred Quarter Horses and Thoroughbreds. The family consists of Mr. and Mrs. Fagan and their five children: fifteen-year-old Khloe, fourteen-year-old Noel, eight-year-old Nathan, and five-year-old twins Allie and Ariah. Khloe is heartbroken about leaving her home and friends in Kentucky, but the excitement of owning a horse farm-especially the chance to have a horse of her own-makes the move easier. She has dreamed of this moment for as long as she can remember. But there's one problem: her family's budget is tight, and they can only afford to buy mares for their breeding and training program. While accompanying her dad to a horse auction, Khloe stumbles upon a stunning dapple-gray Quarter Horse mare-her dream horse. But this mare isn't just wild-she's been abused, broken, and has lost all trust in humans. Now, Khloe faces two challenges: convincing her dad to buy the mare and, if she succeeds, proving to the frightened horse that they are meant to be. But with a horse this damaged, the journey won't be easy. Can Khloe earn the mare's trust, or will someone get hurt in the process?
