The struggle to overcome a traumatic experience for horse and human strikes a chord with Amy, who recalls working with Spartan after the accident that killed her mother, and the need to heal before moving on is reflected in Amy's reluctance to let go of the foal Daybreak, who is ready to be sold. There are some repercussions of Amy and Ty's kiss at the Christmas party.

Amy discovers that she needs to look at problems in different ways. Sometimes, the answer isn't always clear. With patience, Amy finally helps Mercury overcome his fear.

10. Tomorrow's Promise
Amy meets Daniel at a horse show, where he is rude to her because he thinks she's like Ashley, a spoiled rich rider who sneers at him for having patched up show clothes and a horse that doesn't look like a Thoroughbred jumper. But Daniel and his horse Amber are really talented, and Amy stretches her already limited time to try to help him out. Meanwhile she is dealing with the one-year anniversary of her mother's death, and struggling in her relationship with Ty, plus her father surprises them with a horse he bought on a whim, Storm, who could be a top-level jumper. But when Amber is injured at a show, will Amy have time for any of that?

11. True Enough

This True enough book was layered with two horse stories this time, with one being Amy trying to help Ashley train her horse Bright Magic differently. Even though Ashley cooperated with Amy when they were alone at Heartland, in the competition she ultimately chose to go back to old methods since her mother was pressuring her. The story about Boxer and having an owner with Alzheimer's disease was incredibly complex and rich.
