Twelve-Year-Old SELAH (Say-la) aspires to be an equestrian superstar. That would require a horse.
HER DILEMMA: Grandpa wants nothing to do with horses. THEN: Selah sees buzzards circling the grasslands behind Grandpa's farm. They are stalking a horse trapped in wire and Selah is its only hope. DANGEROUS: The horse is wild and defiant - jeopardizing Selah's dreams. FOILED: The legal owner searched for the horse for two years and wants it back. BUT: Selah is confident that God will provide her heart's desire. MEMORIES: Grandpa shows Selah a video, from long ago, of a phenomenal equestrian. Selah declares that she wants to be like her and Grandpa explains the rider was her grandmother. HOPE: A world renowned horse trainer offers to train Sweet Dream and Selah. FOILED AGAIN: Her parents could ruin everything unless Sweet Dream's unruly behavior ruins it first. LOST: Selah's opportunity to mirror the equestrian talent of her renowned grandmother evaporates when the horse causes mayhem at the trainer's facility. NEVER GIVE UP: Will Selah gather her courage and face up to the trainer to save her aspirations?

About the Author
Captivated by The Black Stallion series, I consumed horse books. I love all things horse and am a devoted student of equine training techniques of all disciplines. I am caretaker of three equine blessings. They are a gift of His unmerited favor. The only thing more fun than riding horses is writing stories about them.
