How did this happen? I listen to audiobooks all the time; I usually have one in my shirt pocket all day, earbuds in. My wife ran out the door, snatching up her phone as she went. Except it wasn't her phone; it was mine. With MY audiobooks on it! I like history, military, thrillers, techno, sci fi. She likes Romance…ugh. And horse stories…another ugh. I could have downloaded something on her phone, sure, but then she'd come home and want her phone back. I perused the selections available to me at that moment and this cover caught my eye. There's tension in that horse's body, suggesting urgency…suggesting drama. Is he galloping away from something, or toward something?? OK, so I gave it a try. The narrator reads with emphasis and I found myself getting invested in the story. When the horse was found, hurt and riderless, I was hooked. A writer is skilled when he or she can encourage the reader to keep going, to want to know "what happens," and Kasey Riley is good at her craft. I'm not into teenage angst so I would never have willingly chosen YA as a genre, but Ms. Riley knows horses, she understands family dynamics, her description of the rugged terrain was accurate and I felt bad for the kid. I was out there with young Suzie, unhappy, hurt, alone, cold, hungry and scared, and just as relieved as she was when the book had a happy ending. I'm giving it five stars because it's a good little story and I have to admit I enjoyed it.

First of all I do not normally read novels in this genre.I am a guy who likes techno adventures with lots of action, but, having had a recommendation for this book from a good friend who word I trust, I thought I’d give it a go mainly because it was set in a locale that I knew.
Surprise! It was true to the setting, well written ( and well read) and before I knew it I was involved with the book’s inhabitants. It flowed nicely, characters were developed smoothly and the setting and story line were enjoyable ( and believable!)
A great first book, I can’t wait for the next one!
