A novel of riding and romance, the sequel to Riding Lessons takes up the story of equestrienne, Annemarie Zimmer in a poignant and exhilarating story of embracing life and riding free, from the best-selling author of Water For Elephants.
Twenty years after her competitive riding career finished tragically, anxiety rules Annemarie Zimmer's days — the fear that her relationship with the man she loves is going nowhere and the worry that her daughter Eva's own dreams of Olympic glory will end in a repetition of Annemarie's traumatic circumstances.
When the teenage Eva is invited to audition for a world-class trainer, Annemarie realises that she must give Eva a chance to soar. But when Eva falls in love with a spectacular blue roan Nokota who hasn't let anyone ride him since his arrival at the barn, Annemarie's doubts come crashing back.
It is a time of turmoil at Maple Brook: when loves must be confronted head-on and fears must be saddled and broken to allow this one remarkable family to pull together and meet headlong the changes coming their way.
