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
