Friends with Horses

Expanding on the beloved universe of Natalie Keller Reinert's popular Eventing series, the Briar Hill Farms trilogy brings together fan-favorite characters as they embark on new adventures full of friendship, love, and—of course—horses.

Summer is never simple in Florida, but the shade trees and blue water of Briar Hill Farm were supposed to make the steamy season a little more palatable. Jules is determined to keep up the competitive spirit she regained after a slow winter, and she would, too, if Pete hadn’t brought home a stallion that’s driving everyone crazy. And as if one stallion wasn’t difficult enough, a gesture to help out their friend Grace with a summer rental turns into triple trouble when Grace’s old pal Suzie reappears in her life, begging for a place to stay for herself and her horse.

While the Briar Hill Farm gang deals with troublesome guests, Alex is facing her own surprise summer visitor: Alexander’s teenage niece, Poppy. Faced with a severe lack of maternal instinct, Alex hopes the girl likes horses—otherwise, what will they even talk about?

Everyone wants to just focus and ride, but no one seems to be able to get their head in the game. A shared love of horses might save their relationships . . . and their sanity. With hurricanes, horse shows, and surprise returns from old rivals on the way, can Jules and her friends salvage this summer?
