As far as he was concerned, rules were made to be obeyed—even if you were Veronica diAngelo. Riding was very important to all of them.
In fact, it was so important that they had formed The Saddle Club, which had only two rules: Members had to be horse crazy, and they had to be willing to help one another out in any way necessary. According to Stevie, Carole, and Lisa, The Saddle Club was a perfect organization, since it was the perfect combination of horses and friendship.
They all thought the U. Pony Club was a pretty great organization, too. One of the things the Pony Club did was sponsor rallies like the one that day. But the most important goal of the organization was to teach young members about every aspect of horse care.
That meant riding, of course, but it also meant stable management, veterinary care, and all kinds of other things. Although some of the things they learned were definitely more interesting than others, The Saddle Club thought that learning everything they could about horses made riding even more fun. Stevie, Carole, and Lisa had been dismayed when Max had assigned Veronica to their team for the two local rallies being held this weekend and the next. But much to their surprise, Veronica had been more bearable than usual.
Instead, she actually seemed as eager to do well at the rally as her teammates were. Despite her faults, Veronica was a better-than-average rider. When she paid attention and did her best, she added a lot to the team. Stevie just held her breath and watched as eight horses cantered toward the finish line at the other end of the ring. Seconds later the race was over. Veronica and Garnet had done their best to make up ground, but they ended placing third in the race—which meant the Horse Wise team finished third overall.

It's an extremely explicit book, and starts right in the action. It is a story that is rooted in our modern world and deals with some of the fall-out that comes from trying to keep this world a safe place for our children and for all our populations.
Gray Syzmanski, a graduate of Harvard Law School, has put the possibility of a lucrative law practice on hold to work for the DEA as an undercover agent, working to upend and disrupt the drug cartels of South America. Just before leaving for a particularly difficult under cover operation, Gray had met Andi Young, another attorney to whom he had been introduced and who definitely began to "light his fire.
On their last time together, the condom broke and Andi became pregnant. Not too long after that, Andi received word that Gray had died in the operation. Gray's mother, the matron of a well-to-do family, essentially repudiated Andi, and so she chose to have their baby boy and to raise him as a single parent.
Six years later, in conversations with her two best friends, one of whom now works for the law practice established by Gray's grandfather, Andi learns that, in fact, Gray was alive, had returned to Florida, and was taking up a limited law practice at the same firm.
The trouble was, he had been imprisoned by the cartel, tortured, and he was permanently disabled. Andi finds he is living in the same condo where they spent their weekend together six years earlier, and visits him, informing him that he has a son. Oh my. Gray's mother is now dead, Andi is working for the district attorney's office, and Gray has become an emotional "shadow of his former self," knowing his disabilities and being convinced that no one.
The perverbial "fly in the ointment" is their six-year-old son. This is really a beautiful story about the damage people suffer when they put their lives on the line to try to keep drugs out of the hands of our young people. The ripple effect is clearly a part of this tale, where two people try to pick up the strands, not only of their lives, but also an emotional attachment that was put on "hold" by unforeseen circumstances.
Not only is Gray the victim, but the love relationship has taken a near-mortal hit, and then, of course, there is the little boy. He is the joy of his mother's heart, and if for no other reason, she is grateful for this "fruit" of that long-ago weekend with Gray.
There is pain and fear, insecurity and hard decisions here; Gray must face his demons and Andi must make some important decisions that will effect not only her life but that of their son. I was emotionally drawn into this story more than most--these people were really good people, and their lives had been put through the meat grinder.
I found myself rooting for these folks and especially for their little boy. The story is beautifully written in such a way that the reader can really enter into the anxiety and joy, the ups and downs that are at the root of the journey of discovery which this couple must take.
Of course, there is some very hot sizzle between these two and yet they must decide if that is enough for them as a couple and for the future.
