Ben's an easygoing guy whose best friend is his horse, Galaxy. Lara is a troubled, friendless student at the exclusive boarding school that borders Ben's run-down farm. When Lara first sees Ben riding Galaxy, she's impressed by the special relationship between the boy and his horse. The two begin an uneasy friendship, but the worlds they come from are so different, and a secret from Lara's past threatens her future as well as her relationship with Ben. "Endlessly fascinating and appealing."-- School Library Journal (starred review) "Engrossing, believable, and beautifully written...A fine combo of coming-of-age, love, and horse story." -- Booklist (starred review) Deborah Savage lives in Amherst, Mass-achusetts.
