Cross-Ties

It’s almost Thanksgiving—so why don’t any of the Pine Hollow riders feel thankful? Lisa Atwood is hoping to spend a relaxing Thanksgiving holiday in California. But it’s hard to stop thinking about her complicated relationship with her boyfriend, Alex—not to mention the loss of her beloved horse Prancer. Then her brother arrives with a big surprise, throwing the family into turmoil and making Lisa question what she has to be grateful for. Back home, Stevie Lake is no longer grounded, but her friends aren’t around to hang out with anyway. And Carole Hanson is just beginning her punishment for cheating on a test—no riding, no Pine Hollow, no socializing. The girls are going to have to search long and hard to find some gratitude this Thanksgiving.
