The Showdown (Saddlehill Academy #2)

by Jessica Burkhart (Author)

Reading Level: 6th − 7th Grade

From the author of the Canterwood Crest series comes the second book in a middle grade series about an equestrian boarding school about Abby's unmasking of her blackmailer only being the start of her problems.

Now that Abby knows which of her so-called friends is the one behind the video of her talking "trash" on Emery, she'd love to do something with that information--if only her blackmailer didn't know Abby's one real secret, the one she can't risk getting out. So, Abby's stuck. And, to make matters worse, she's so rattled by the drama that it's affecting her performance on Beau. Abby wants to be as great a rider as Sasha Silver, but how can she do that when she's making rookie mistakes?

When tensions come to a head, Abby's score at the shows isn't the only thing in jeopardy--so is her place on the team.
