In the second book of the Keystone Stables series, perfect for girls who love horses and horse fiction, foster child Skye must face a new challenge with a friend from her past stays at the ranch Skye now calls home, threatening her new life and the horses she holds dear.

Skye Nicholson used to be a lot like her past friend Sooze: loud, angry, and willing to do anything to prove she didn't need anyone. But after coming to Keystone Stables and realizing she is worth being loved, Skye's life has changed. Now she would do anything to stay at the stables and around her beloved horses. But while the girls start training for an upcoming horse show, Sooze decides to sneak off with a hard-to-control Tennessee walking horse named Stormy, and disaster strikes--soon, Skye is questioning everything she's started to believe about herself, including her newfound faith.
