Summary from Maggies website
A movie is being filmed at Timber Ridge Stables,
and one lucky girl is actually going to be in it. Of course, Angela
Dean wants the spotlight, but Kate McGregor wants it even more. With the
money she’d earn from the movie, Kate can make her special dream come
true. She can buy a horse of her own.
What will Angela do to stop her? She’s
tried all manner of dirty tricks in the past. But now a beloved horse is
missing. Would Angela go that far?
Nayu's thoughts
I'm
having a fangirl SQUEEE moment as I sit to write this review –
simply seeing the title has
me happy because these riding stories are ace! The friendship between
Kate and Holly is as strong as ever, thought not without disagreement which makes the story more realistic. There is as much drama off camera as on when filming happens at
Timber Ridge. Film crews do funny things to people – not funny
haha.
There is sabotage and danger which had me holding my breath on
several occasions, and mentally going 'Grr!' when certain characters
(*coughAngelacough*) got away with almost murder. You really don't have to know anything
about horses to enjoy the story which is about ordinary life,
although by book 3 I am understanding just how much love and care
goes into taking care of these fine creatures.
Suggested read
Be sure to read the entire series series which starts with Timber Ridge Riders: Keeping Secrets (Children's, 9 years +, 10E/10E)
