Pine Hollow

The Long Ride (Pine Hollow, Book 1)

Check out the first title in Books for Young Readers' great new series, Pine Hollow, by Bonnie Bryant, author of the popular series, The Saddle Club:

Stevie Lake, Lisa Atwood, and Carole Hanson are best friends, and they share everything--including their love of horses.  Now that they are in high school, they are as busy as ever.  Stevie is spending more time on her car than her horse; Lisa is struggling to make her long distance relationship work; and Carole is so busy with her job and the horses she works with that she ignores the people around her!  Then a terrible accident leaves a girl's life in danger.  Will the strain these friends are facing be too much to keep their friendship alive?

Reining in (Pine Hollow #3)

Will Lisa leave Virginia for sunny California? She's been there for most of the summer and she likes it. There's a lot less pressure on her, and she's working on a TV show loaded with good-looking guys, romance, and horses. What more could she want? Maybe she should stay....

Her boyfriend, Alex, worries that Lisa is spending too much time with a handsome movie star. Some girls might fall in love with someone like that, but Lisa wouldn't. Or would she? If only Alex could be sure. Carole and Stevie are Lisa's best friends and they want the best for her, but they don't want her to move away either. Is there anything they can do to persuade her to come home?

Three people's happiness is riding on one decision...will Lisa make the right one?

Changing Leads (Pine Hollow No. 4)

Stevie Lake can't get Scott Forester to let her off the hook for the car accident that injured his sister. And now Scott and Stevie's boyfriend, Phil, have started hanging out together. Stevie can't believe how insensitive Phil is being. Something has to give--and soon. Lisa Atwood is adjusting to life back home, but something is wrong. She feels like an outsider--even among her best friends. Carole Hanson is facing some changes, too. New challenges at work mean new responsibilities that threaten her relationship with one of her best friends.

Riding to Win (Pine Hollow No. 9) (Pine Hollow(TM))

Carole Hanson is sure she can win at this year's Colesford Horse Show, while Stevie Lake would be satisfied with just a simple ribbon, in a recent edition to the Pine Hollow series for young adults. Original.

Ground Training (Pine Hollow No. 10) (Pine Hollow(TM))

Grounded! Carole Hanson can't believe it. No phone, no TV, no hanging out with friends, no job, and absolutely no Pine Hollow. One stupid, thoughtless act and everything has changed.

Stevie Lake is an expert at being grounded. It seems as if she's been stuck at home forever, and she's starting to wonder if she'll ever be free. Then something wonderful happens. Her parents give her one day of liberty. Nothing could be better than spending it with her boyfriend, Phil, and their friend A.J.--until A.J.'s reckless behavior puts them all at risk.

Track Record (Pine Hollow No. 16) (Pine Hollow(TM))

Everyone makes mistakes!

Carole Hanson is back at Pine Hollow full-time, so she can spend as many hours as she wants with the horses she loves. And that's perfect, because it's a great way to mend a broken heart. Who knew Cam would turn out to be a total rat? Carole sure didn't. For now, she's sticking with horses. While she may not be able to change the past, Carole's determined not to make the same mistake again.
