Description
Ash recovers from her accident and discovers a form of horse training called horse whispering. As she learn the art of horse whispering, she learns to understand not only Lightning�the horse she was so badly injured by�but also horses in general.
Ash is up against a nasty cyber bully and the growing anti-horse campaign at Linley, and must speak out for Lightning to save him. Ash does, however, overcome her fear of riding, and finishes the term triumphantly moving to Level A. It looks like her scholarship is finally secure.
But then her friend Becky is desperate for help. The land that Shady Creek Riding Club uses has been earmarked for development, and lots of the boys have quit horses for football. Ash, Becky, and Pree come up with a brilliant plan�starting a polocrosse club and kicking off a regional competition. Will it be enough to save Shady Creek Riding Club?
