LGBT+ equestrian fiction for older teens and adults
Simon O' Shaughnessy has never fit in with civilian--non-horse-riding--society. But can a brash kid without a lot of cash make it as a professional eventer? On impulse, before leaving to be a working student at a crusty retired eventer's barn up in Vermont, Simon buys a rogue grey gelding, hoping the horse will take him up the levels and away from his inner demons.
I haven’t read a horse book for 20yrs but this series filled a hole I didn’t know existed. It took me a little while to get into as I didn’t automatically relate to Simon but before long I was hooked.

I can’t say enough about how much I love this series. The characters are all so realistic, and I admittedly
have a soft spot for both Simon and Max.
