I love Ahmad. He’s such a strong character and I was pleased with his character arc. I also loved his cousin, Mira. She was such a nice supporting character.
Evie’s friends were fun, too. I’m excited to see Julie’s story in book two!
I read this book because I wanted a horse girl book. And this did not disappoint. There is always room for more horses, but there was also plentiful horse content and metaphors in this book that I enjoyed.

This was my first book I read by Mimi Matthews and it won’t be my last.
Honestly this story was very captivating. I actually read the author’s note cause I wanted to know more about what she researched and the people that inspired this. I loved the female friendships. I’m SO EXCITED to hear that book two is about Julia.
This was a close four stars for me but I think there was a lack of focus and it just kept going on and on…
Just when I thought the novel was concluding, I saw there was over 75 pages left. There were a crap ton of plot lines going on and I its setting up further books, but I was ready to stop. Very good work though.
Ready to dive into book two!!!!
