Ashleigh Miller has landed a riding scholarship to the prestigious Linley Heights School and she s determined to make the most of it. It s an incredible opportunity: at Linley she ll train with some of Australia s best riding instructors at a state-of-the-art facility and compete on the school s polocrosse team. She ll even have horsemanship as a subject in school Still, it means that once again Ashleigh will be the new girl, and she knows from experience that isn t easy. With a germophobe roommate who s determined to get the school s horse program cancelled, a history teacher who hates her from day one, and a rival rider who s jealous of Ashleigh s scholarship, Ashleigh s got her work cut out for her. She vows there s nothing she won t do to prove herself at Linley, but as her attempts to show she belongs become dangerous, she risks losing everything. For the first time, Ashleigh doesn t have being totally horse mad to fall back on. Could moving away from Shady Creek have been the worst decision of her life?
