Summary from Little Tiger Press
Welcome to Stardust Stables – only daredevil riders need apply! Stardust
is a stables with a difference… Set in the Colorado mountains, it’s
home to the super-talented kids who are stunt riders for movie stars!
Alisa
and Diabolo have been chosen to work as stunt doubles on a big
adventure movie being shot in Colorado. But the minute Alisa begins
work, her co-rider, Lucy, seems to have it in for her. Things go from
bad to worse on set, and all is not well at Stardust either – Lizzie’s
ex has put in a claim for fifty per cent of the Stardust horses, and
Diabolo is on his list…
Nayu's thoughts
I liked seeing Stardust Stables
from a different point of view to book one (see suggested reads). Alisa is fun to be with. I felt so
sorry for her because due to her rival she got blamed for incidents
which were awful yet not her fault. Thankfully everything becomes
right in the end, but only after a lot of anxiety for Alisa, who
finds that the fire stunts she has to perform are the least worrying
part of her current job.
