Quality Concealed
A
Keepsake Book for the Whole Family |
Set against a backdrop of horses and
jumping competitions, Quality Concealed
is a feel-good story of devotion,
determination, and of making dreams come true.
* * * The only thing
16-year-old Heather desires more than a
Thoroughbred jumper is handsome David. Her
horse Possum, a lovable gray gelding of
questionable ancestry, can never match best
friend Sheila's Thoroughbred, but David is
slowly becoming more than a study companion.
Then Sheila zeros in.
When Kevin Quinn, Heather's mysterious
neighbor, suggests they train Possum to jump,
she thinks it nothing more than a summer
pastime, until September finds them at the
Utah State Fair, pitted against Sheila and her
seasoned jumper, Pagan.
Will Possum meet the challenge? Is Kevin's
secret past a threat to Heather and her
widowed mother? Will Heather and David
rekindle their budding romance, or will his
interest in Sheila continue to sizzle? Is
Heather and Sheila's friendship doomed
forever? |
Beautiful Illustrations begin each of thirty
chapters. A map and drawings of show jumping
courses educate and add interest. |
