Just Released my horse show novel, Jumping In
I love horse shows and have ridden in hundreds, so it was especially fun to write about showing.
If you saw someone using drugs to cheat, what would you do?
Lizzy is riding in the last horse show of the summer before her senior year in high school starts. When she witnesses Orlando, a groom from another stable, drugging horses, she is outraged. One of the horses being drugged is a horse she helped train, so it’s personal. It doesn’t help that Orlando appeals to her in ways no other guy ever has.
Figuring out what to do isn’t easy. The show association doesn’t allow tattle tales, and Lizzy thinks their penalties for drugging are ineffective. But Lizzy has never hesitated to take a stand. She and a couple of her friends decide to take matters into their own hands and switch the drugs. It won’t be easy, and getting caught would be more than just embarrassing. She could be suspended from showing, and there could be legal consequences. Plus, it would mean being suspended from school, the end of her training job at the school stables, and the end of her hopes for a riding career.
To make matters worse, Lizzy’s riding isn’t going well, and when her ex-boyfriend shows up, her emotions are even more jumbled. Things get dicey when Orlando suspects what happened. Will he rat her out or ask her out?
