Pine Hollow

Full Gallop

The Pine Hollow riders discover what winning—and losing—is all about

 The countdown is on for the annual Colesford Horse Show. Carole and Stevie are among the five riders chosen by owner Max to represent Pine Hollow Stables. Carole is sure she and her beloved horse Samson can win at this year’s competition, while Stevie would be satisfied with just a simple ribbon. But, come to think of it, a blue ribbon would be nice . . .
 
 Meanwhile, Lisa is facing bigger challenges. She has accepted a spot at Northern Virginia University, which happens to be just forty miles away from her friends and boyfriend. But with her horse Prancer pregnant and her mom getting a divorce, college doesn’t feel so important.

Riding to Win

Every action has its consequences—and it’s time for Carole to face hers

 Carole Hanson knew cheating on that test was wrong, but she didn’t predict how extreme her punishment would be. Being grounded has been harsh—no phone, no TV, no hanging out with friends, no job, and absolutely no Pine Hollow. It’s a huge price for one stupid, thoughtless act that she wishes she could take back.

 On the other hand, Stevie Lake is an expert at being grounded—freedom seems like a distant memory. Then something wonderful happens—her parents give her a day off. Nothing could be better than spending it with her boyfriend, Phil, and their buddy A.J.—until A.J.’s reckless behavior puts them all at risk. Being grounded might soon be the least of their problems.

Ground Training

It’s almost Thanksgiving—so why don’t any of the Pine Hollow riders feel thankful?

 Lisa Atwood is hoping to spend a relaxing Thanksgiving holiday in California. But it’s hard to stop thinking about her complicated relationship with her boyfriend, Alex—not to mention the loss of her beloved horse Prancer. Then her brother arrives with a big surprise, throwing the family into turmoil and making Lisa question what she has to be grateful for.

 Back home, Stevie Lake is no longer grounded, but her friends aren’t around to hang out with anyway. And Carole Hanson is just beginning her punishment for cheating on a test—no riding, no Pine Hollow, no socializing. The girls are going to have to search long and hard to find some gratitude this Thanksgiving.

Cross-Ties

If only the Pine Hollow girls could be as good at relationships as they are at riding horses

 After scoring well on the PSATs, Carole is finally getting some of the privileges back from before she was grounded. Even though she can’t work or see her friends as much as she used to, her dad is letting her go to Pine Hollow four days a week, which means she gets to see Ben.
 
 Since returning from California, Lisa and Alex haven’t been the same. They decide to take a “break” from their relationship, but what does that really mean? Meanwhile, Stevie’s first assignment on the school paper is about marriage. It’s not exactly hard-hitting journalism, but she just may learn a thing or two about romance while writing it.

Back in the Saddle

Nothing’s riskier than love

 Now that Lisa and Alex have put their relationship on hold, Lisa knows she should try to see other people. After all, Alex is dating other girls. For some reason, Stevie is pushing hard for her to take Callie’s brother, Scott, to the Country Animal Rescue League fundraising dance.
 
 Just when Carole thinks she knows where things stand with Ben, an old boyfriend reappears and sweeps her off her feet. Suddenly everything seems perfect. But is it too good to be true?

 Meanwhile, Callie Forester is focused on riding and has set her sights on winning; romance can wait until after she gets a blue. Between love and competition, there is a lot at stake for the Pine Hollow girls.

High Stakes

Callie’s determination to win is admirable . . . and possibly dangerous 

 With the holidays fast approaching, Stevie is searching for the perfect gift for her boyfriend. Meanwhile, Carole and Lisa each find romance in unexpected places. With their attention focused elsewhere, they don’t realize that their friend Callie Forester is galloping into trouble.

 On her road to recovery, all Callie can think about is being a champion rider once again. She won’t let anything get in her way—not even the warning signs. Every day, she spends hours in the wooded trails behind Pine Hollow—just her and her horse. At least, she thinks they’re alone . . .

Headstrong

The Pine Hollow girls ring in the New Year with unexpected beginnings—and endings

 It’s been an eventful year—and the excitement is not winding down just because it’s New Year’s Eve. Carole never dreamed that falling in love could happen so fast—but Cam is speeding things along, and Carole’s doing her best to keep up. While Stevie helps a friend confront his past, Lisa has lots of decisions to make about her future.
 
 What will the New Year bring? And do the girls have the courage to face it?

Setting the Pace

A broken heart mends faster when you go back to what makes you the happiest

 Carole is back at Pine Hollow full time, spending as many hours as she can with the horses she loves. There’s no better place to heal than the stable.
 
 While Stevie is busy training for eventing, Callie is trying to figure out what to do about George. Is she imagining things, or is he stalking her? And now that Lisa and Alex have officially broken up, Callie finds that her relationship with Scott isn’t exactly easy either. It seems like the girls have a better track record with their horses at the stable than with the boys outside of it.
