Book Synopsis

Twelve-year-old Winnie Willis has a way with horses. She can gentle the wildest mare, but other parts of life don't always come as easily. Along with her dad and sister, Lizzy, Winnie is learning how to live without her mom--who was also a natural horse gentler. As Winnie teaches horses about unconditional love and blind trust, God shows Winnie that he can be trusted as well.

#3 Bold Beauty--Winnie's confidence begins to crumble as she faces the toughest challenge of her horse-gentling career and her first failure. Winnie slips into a web of deceit and distress until she discovers the true source of genuine confidence.

From the Back Cover

"I couldn''t let anyone know what I''d done. I''d worked so hard to gain their trust, I couldn''t risk losing it now.
Winnie Willis has confidence to spare-on horseback that is. If only she could have the same self-assurance at school. When Winnie gets a dreaded school assignment, her whole world is affected. Worse, an accident on horseback shatters the one area of her life where everything was going fine. Now she''ll have to find the courage outside herself to face her classmates and the horse she let down.
