Summary: Great Book!
Comment: This is a great book! It starts where Jas is waiting to see a judge for assaulting a rich horse owner who killed the horse she loved, Whirlwind. The horse owner, Hugh, claims Jas's grandfather accidentally poisoned the horse, but Jas knows that is not possible. Jas is sentenced to live under a kind of 'house arrest' on Second Chance Farm, a place where abused and neglected animals of all kinds are brought, cared for, and adopted out. Jas secretly collects clues as to how and why Hugh killed Whirlwind, whether he has killed before, and how she can prove it. In the meanwhile, she also takes care of and trains a large but sick horse bought at a 'meat auction,' begins to ride again, and comes to trust other people in her life. The story is well-written, fast-paced, poignant, and funny at times, and full of fascinating details about the juvenile system and about horses in general. Buy this book for yourself or the horse- or mystery-lover in your life!

Summary: Way to go, Alison Hart!!!! (I hope she writes a sequel)
Comment: I read this book a really long time ago, and i only just got around to reviewing it. Anyway, there's this girl named Jasmine (Jas) and she is totally nice, nonviolent (cough) person. At least she used to be nonviolent.
One day, after finding her favorite horse, whirlwind, dead, she attacked Hugh Robicheaux, the owner of the horse farm she lived on, because she belived that he killed whirlwind. she has to go on trial, and of course hugh wins. so she ends up in a foster care situation at a place called second chance farm. her guardian, miss hahn (also the owner of second chance farm), seems to have a few secrets of her own in her past. Jas doesn't really trust her at first.
so basically, the story is about jas finding this sick horse at an auction, caring for it, and discovering that he (the horse) is somehow connected to whirlwind's death. jas and her new friend chase have to do some secret (or so they thought) trespassing and spying to find out the truth about what happened to whirlwind.

Summary: Terrific
Comment: This was the best book I have ever read! It has a totally unexpected and twisted ending. It has a bet of romance, and tons of mystery. I pick this book up every now and then to flip through it, and when I do, it turns into an awesome book- I reread it all the time and it never gets old!
definetly a MUST READ!
