Shuffle (Hope & Horses Book 1)
Twelve‑year‑old Kylie Hannigan’s steady life on her family’s horse ranch is shaken when her mom’s behavior swings between exhaustion and frantic energy. As Kylie tries to keep the ranch running, protect her best friend Joey from the truth, and make sense of a mom who suddenly feels like a stranger, she starts trying to shoulder everything on her own. The only place she still feels like herself is with the horses—especially a strange new one no one will train. But as the pressure builds and the secrets pile up, Kylie is forced to confront questions she never expected about family, friendship, and the faith she’s always taken for granted.

Fetch (Hope & Horses Book 2)
Thirteen‑year‑old Frankie is a talented pitcher, but after a humiliating day in Nashville, she moves to Montana determined to stay invisible and keep her anxiety under control. That plan falls apart when she throws a “last pitch ever” into the woods and meets a mystery horse with an unusual talent—and Joey, who’s far kinder than she expected. Soon Frankie is drawn into Kylie and Olivia’s world of horses, art camp plans, and helping out at Kylie’s therapeutic riding ranch, The Captain’s Quarters. As her friendships deepen and her bond with the horse she names Fetch grows, Frankie’s anxiety threatens to push her back into isolation. To hold on to her new friends—and the horse who helped her feel brave—she must face what happened in Nashville and learn she doesn’t have to carry everything alone.

Gallop (Hope & Horses Book 3)
When Eli Brennan’s parents split, everything gets worse when his dad moves in with Eli’s best friend Sam and Sam’s mom. Losing his dad and his best friend at the same time leaves Eli furious and convinced he’s been replaced. Uprooted to rural Montana, he plans to keep his head down and trust no one. But Kylie’s stubborn kindness—and a wild‑spirited buckskin named Tucker—begin to break through the walls he’s built. As Eli wrestles with anger and the loss of his best friend, he has to decide whether shutting everyone out will cost him the new friendships forming around him. His journey isn’t about perfect faith—it’s about learning that healing often begins with letting people in.
