Holiday Hoofbeats

The upcoming winter break at Washington State University in Pullman, Washington means Felicia Gibson and her brother, Jack, are already planning their trip home to what he calls the “wet” not western side of the mountains after final exams. While classes keep them busy, so does the time they spend training for future competitions with the college equestrian teams. Felicia rides in three-day eventing on her Warmblood gelding while Jack does Western Games on his off-the track, Thoroughbred.


Felicia and Jack had such an amazing time over Thanksgiving weekend visiting with their family and seeing the people they’d missed during fall semester. It thrilled Jack to spend so much time with his girlfriend, Vicky Miller in real life, since they’d been limited to phone calls, texts and emails while he was hundreds of miles away. Felicia had fun shopping with their younger sister, Robin and her friends on Black Friday.  


When their plans implode for the holidays, Felicia and Jack must remain behind in Pullman, but their younger sister has other ideas. Is there a way to take Christmas to Pullman, Washington and reunite the family?
