First sentence: Alison Chant stared at the telephone message in her hand.
Description: Alison Chant is angry at the world. She wants a new horse, but everything gets in her way. First, her mom says, 'No more horses!' Then, Alison finds the horse of her dreams. But it belongs to a young girl named Kristy Jones, who refuses to sell her beloved Skipper.

Regrettably, Alison takes matters into her own hands. She gets Skipper and herself into terrible trouble at a barrel race.

Who can save her? Will it be Chuck McClintock, the goofy, redheaded cowboy she met at Mustang Mountain Ranch? Or will it be his good-looking cousin Craig?

Alison is wondering what to do when a surprise visitor shows up to test the limits of her endurance.

Alison will need all her resources of courage and strength to heal and make things right.
