Second Star book

Another great thoroughbred book. It's like the sequel to #36 Without Wonder. In this book Star is at Townsend Acers for training. Christina is worried about him, she knows he's being worked too fast. She and Melanie go to see him and find him listless and looking sick, but later when she brings her parents to see him, Star is better. But Christina is still really worried and takes a job at Townsend Acers to take care of Star. Parker warns her his father Brad Townsend only cares about money and will fire her if she puts half a foot wrong, but so far Brad is being OK - at least untill Brad waits till she's out of the way at a horse show to break Star to saddle. Can Christina stop the Townsends before they hurt the colt she loves?This one has a great storyline with some nice suspence. Parker is really great, in this book he and Christina start going out. It has the best ending, but for once I won't give it away. bye more reviews soon.

GREAT!

I love these books again! This was a wonderful book! It had a great plot with a good conflict and great characters. Christina has finally gotten that she can race! She is very devoted in this book and will fight for what she believes in! You won't want to put this book down!

Star In Danger

I think this was one of the best books. If you read it you can tell that Parker and Star are the most special things in Christina's life. They both love her, she loves them, and they both were mad at her because of Brad. When both of them came into her life she started turning to racing, because they showed she was in her blood and that's what she should be doing.

GREAT BOOK!

This book is a great book! I'm so glad that Parker stood up to his dad, and I loved how this book had a new twist of adventure. A must-read! Since the plot for #38 has been announced and I don't know what the scoop is on #39, here's the plot for #40, ULTIMATE RISK:Now that Christine Reese and her cousin Melanie Graham are jockeys, they want to ride as many horses for as many trainers as they possibly can. When Christine is asked to ride a difficult horse for one of the best known trainers in Kentucky, she leaps at the chance to prove herself. But she'll have to race against her own horse--Wonder's Star. Is it worth the risk?

THE BEST BOOK YET!!! I REALLY LIKED THIS ONE!

This was one of the very best thouroughbred books yet! It was so cool how Parker and Christina fall in love! I have read it again and again at least 10 times already! It is pretty sad when Christina finds Star all abused and stuff! I just think it is really cool that parker is nice even though he is Brad's son! I am glad Parker and Christina hooked up it gives the story kind of a love affect! WELL I SERIOUSLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO ANY HORSE LOVER! IT WAS DA BOMB!!!! ALSO RECOMMENDED: all the thouroughbred book but some of my favorites are :WITHOUT WONDER,CINDY'S HEARTBREAK, and or course STAR IN DANGER! I CAN'T WAIT TO READ 'DOWN TO THE WIRE!'
