The summer before ninth grade, Magic Kendall's best friend lets her secret out - she sees animals' auras. Now the teasing and texting doesn't stop. She finds refuge at her aunt's horse ranch in a small mountain town, Willow Bridge, California.
Sure that no one will discover her weird, psychic abilities, she helps with therapy riding and makes a quirky group of friends. And she just might have a crush on a young cowboy who works at the ranch. All is going well until she witnesses a terrible horse-trailer crash. Magic knows from the energy of the Thoroughbred's aura, that she can save Sierra Blue. But will the filly ever race again? Is it worth risking her fragile new friendships in order to save Sierra Blue? What will Magic learn about truth, friendship, and all kinds of "different"?
"A perfect tale for young horse lovers, brimming over with adventure and magic, found family and the mysterious power of healing."
