About this ebook

When Sasha Silver and her horse, Charm, arrive on the campus of the elite Canterwood Crest Academy, Sasha knows that she's in trouble. She's not exactly welcomed with open arms. One group of girls in particular is used to being the best, the brightest, and the prettiest on the team, and when Sasha shows her skills in the arena, the girls' claws come out.

Sasha is determined to prove that she belongs at Canterwood. Will she rise to the occasion and make the advanced riding team by the end of her first semester? Or will the pressure send Sasha packing?

Ratings and reviews

the beginning of the book didn't quite get me hooked, but I read on because I LOVE horses and horse books and it turned out to be a super uber amazing book...and now I have all the books!!! Just watch out...there are a lot of spelling mistakes and easily noticable gramatical errors....

I also thought the first page on lip gloss was a little silly but as the story goes on it plays in with Jacob. I really like the rivalry with Sasha and Heather.

This is not the best but Sasha Silver makes the advance team and also geys to plan the Fall Ball....
