Publisher's Notes
It's time for Christina and Melanie to make some big decisions. Christina loves being a jockey. But a heartbreaking accident at the Belmont track forces her to reconsider veterinary medicine. Working with a horse that has Charismatic's bloodlines reminds Christina of Charismatic's amazing story -- how he unexpectedly won the Derby and the Preakness in 1999, only to go down in the Belmont with a broken leg. It would feel pretty great to help horses in similar situations. But how can she turn her back on Wonder's Star? Meanwhile, Melanie finds her relationship with her cousin strained when she decides to ride a horse for the very couple Christina holds responsible for her accident. For Melanie, her prospects as a jockey seem clear, but her future with the people she loves -- Christina, Jazz, and even Image -- is less certain. How will Melanie prove to Christina that she puts the people she loves first?

Melanie has her hands full... Melanie Graham can't help herself--she's fallen in love with the high-spirited black filly, Perfect Image. More than anything, Melanie wants to help train the filly and be the first one to race her. Despite her name, Image is anything but perfect. The filly has been spoiled by her own doting owner since birth, and is impossible to handle. In fact, her trainer wants to give up and turn Image into a broodmare, hoping her foals will have better sense than she does. But Melanie is sure that Image was born to win.

Come What May
by Lauren Brooke
Amy ignores her sister Lou's attempt to get in touch with their estranged father, deciding she does not want him back in her life, but problems with a new horse help her to forget the past and face the future with hope.

Everything Changes
by Lauren Brooke
With Ty in the hospital, Amy is struggling to keep up with her Heartland chores and stay positive. Then a new horse arrives - a wild Mustang who was purchased at a round-up out West. He has a beautiful, independent spirit. Amy has always had a sense of how to approach strong-willed horses. With time, even the most defensive and fierce horses have grown to understand her and have yearned to reach out to her and make a bond. But this horse is different. He isn't angry or misunderstood - he is proud. When Amy watches him gaze into the distance, she wonders if he was meant to be wild and free.

Every New Day
by Lauren Brooke
Amy is only 15, but she inherited countless responsibilities when her mother died. Most of all, she is expected to fill her mother's role as the horse healer at Heartland. Amy is talented, but still a novice. She can't admit that she needs time to grow and understand. When she can't cure Mercury, and she and Ty argue about his treatment she decides to visit a Native American horseman who knew her mother. Amy takes Mercury to the mountain-top stable searching for answers, but she ultimately learns that she can't always chase down solutions. Sometimes she has to wait for them to find her.

Darkest Hour
by Lauren Brooke
A fierce flu strain is infecting Heartland's horses, and, despite Amy and Ty's fervent efforts to treat and isolate those infected, the flu spreads to other horses and the vet quarantines Heartland. To make matters worse, the late summer heat heightens the tension. Ben is frustrated when Red starts to exhibit flu symptoms because their show season will be cut short. Ty thinks Ben is being selfish, and Amy feels caught in the middle. Then, just as some horses start to get better, a tornado devastates the valley. When the storm is over, everyone is forced to gain a new perspective.
