The wild ride comes to a calamitous end: Joanna suffers a spinal injury and faces six months to a year of recuperation--off horses. For Joanna, who has pinned all her hopes on representing the Farms at the Toronto Royal Horse Show, it is undeniably the end of the world.

Through her increasing involvement with her English tutor's family and her enthusiasm for the riding school she opens at the Farms, Joanna turns what began as the worst year of her life into one filled with unexpected rewards. By the time she is ready to ride again, the headstrong girl of that flight through the fields has learned that disappointment and compromise have a place on the road to personal fulfillment.
