The next book on my TBR mountain is Blaze of Glory by M. Garzon. I got this YA ebook from the author. It is a story about a girl and horses. I thought it sounded intersting.

Here is the product description:
Last year, I had it all. Two jumpers on the show circuit, a lot of wins, and a lot of attention - the good kind. But now I have nothing. My life is circling the drain. The only spark of light that exists for me is my new, forbidden passion. If my stepfather finds out, he will kill me. My twin brother, my only blood relative in the world, has already begged me not to. But I can't help myself. If it can't be horses, it has to be this.
Beginning:
I squished my way through the water-soaked grass to the pasture.
Friday 56:
"You know, for the record, I would have given you the money for the Royal," he added, "But you didn't ask me."
Gotta tell you - after reading the product description - I am really curious about what "this" is.
