Excited for summer, Stevie Buckbee is headed home to the family ranch to be with her father, her brother Blake, and her horses. With Jack Rabbit, her first horse all her own, she plans to compete in every barrel race competition in five states.

When she gets to the ranch, though, it doesn't feel like home. A year has passed since her brother Edwin died in an accident, but Dad is still distant. To make matters worse, Blake has a new girlfriend and plans of his own.

Her horses seem to be the only ones she can talk to. She never expected the horses to talk back.
