Life at Bittersweet Farm is one long challenge for Talia Margolin. Their trainer, Lockie Malone, believes she can become a dressage rider. But Talia is unconvinced, even with her talented new horse, Joyful Spirit. Her half-sister is easily switching to jumpers, her friends have unshared secrets and there's a hunter pace looming in the near future. Can life get more complicated? Yes, it can.

Greer Swope has something to prove. But even she doesn't quite know what. Always believing that even if she was good enough for nothing else, she was good enough on a horse. History hasn't borne that out. Now Greer's left equitation and hunter classes behind for show jumping but it won't happen overnight. It might even take the help of a new trainer. Enter Cameron Rafferty whose horse is lame, who was fired from his last job and who wants the newest Bittersweet prospect. He's one of the top riders and he is a player. Can Greer handle her horse, Counterpoint, and Cam Rafferty, too? Talia can only look on at what might be the latest train wreck.

When a handsome new trainer arrives at Bittersweet Farm, the competition between half-sisters is no longer limited to the show ring. Talia Margolin's life has been marked by events completely beyond her control--her mother's death, her move to her father's horse farm, the retirement of her show horse. Now she faces the arrival of a new coach whose job is to get Talia's half-sister, Greer, qualified for the finals at the National Horse Show. Greer is brutal on trainers but Lockie Malone is different. Handsome, talented, and with a will of hardened steel, Lockie can be an immovable object. He also becomes the agent for change in the lives of everyone at Bittersweet Farm. For seventeen year old Talia, change has never meant anything but loss. Will this time be different?

As the August temperatures rise, Talia feels as though the heat has been turned up on everyone at Bittersweet Farm. She is being sued by Paul Gish, the horse community is gossiping about her abilities as a teacher, and Lockie wants her ride CB for Mauritz Schenker. A man who threatened Lockie in the past, returns to threaten him again. Cam brings a hot, new horse to the farm. Greer has a very unwanted visit from an old boyfriend with Cam watching. Even the rains bring no relief but the new restaurant in town certainly does!

If wishes were horses, that would explain all the horse manure. Caprice Rydell makes a wish, flips a coin into a fountain and her life changes. Her father is a bigamist and if that isn't embarrassing enough, it all happens in front of Mill Crocker, the gorgeous captain of the school polo team. Mill thinks she's adorable but wishing isn't reality and he thinks she's got what she wants. In a panic to right everything, what Cap wants is to reset her life back to normal again by getting that coin in her wet little hand. One more problem. Just how can she find it among the thousands in the fountain?

"Did you stay overnight with Sloane? That shouldn't be such a hard question to answer!" "Why do you want to know?" Cam and Greer can't stop fighting and while it's tearing Greer up, it doesn't seem to affect Cam at all. Spring has arrived, fresh in all ways, with it an unexpected addition to the farm and an expected departure. Victoria is not without her surprises or her style of revenge. New opportunities are presented to Talia but she hesitates, unclear about the direction the farm should take. Any choice means giving up something else.
