Part of the Cardinal Oaks series:

Zahra's used to having the farm to herself, so when Rose is rehabilitating at Cardinal Oaks while her condo is up for sale, Zahra realizes she has to confront her feelings for her friend and either see what can happen or let it go. The not knowing is frustrating her, and more importantly, it's impacting her riding.

With her next competition coming up and garnering attention among the other barns, Zahra worries she's juggling too much. This was the dream she's always had, and right now there's nothing better than a penalty-free cross country run. Eventing is everything she's ever wanted, pushing herself and her horses to their limits. A chance offer could change everything...including her relationship with Rose.

Each book in the Cardinal Oaks series continues the story, though you can start anywhere. You will get a fuller picture of Zahra's story if you start from the beginning.

Part of the Cardinal Oaks series:

For someone used to not staying very long in one place, having a farm of her own is a new adventure for Zahra. She's used to adventures, and as an African American equestrian, she's also used to going it alone. After all, there weren't many riders who looked like her at the barn where she'd learned to ride. Now, Zahra has left Noble Dreams, changed from show jumping to eventing, and with her friend and business partner, Rose, started Cardinal Oaks where she takes retired racehorses and retrains them for a new career.

With two new horses and about to compete in her first event, Zahra's facing her share of challenges. Her business partner has job trouble, and that could turn their goals for the farm upside down. Zahra wants to help her friend, but she keeps getting pushed away. She wants to stop trying to help, but if she does, what will happen to Cardinal Oaks? And what does it mean if her feelings for Rose are changing?

A tumultuous year has come to a close with Eva and Mark worrying about their own year-end awards from their season of showing. Cora and Ari, along with Simon and Sara, are planning weddings, and Linda's still trying to juggle everything in her life. But these friends know how to come together and overcome obstacles. In this final installment, these friends handle their current challenges and prepare for new ones.

This final book in the Noble Dreams series can be read on its own, but you'll receive a much more thorough enjoyment of each character's journey and triumph if you read them in order.

As the show season begins, everything is going great for Noble Dreams. Cora has several new boarders; her students are doing well. Her relationship with Ari has never been better. The only hitch? Ari's friend Brit, a dressage rider, is back from a year in Europe and Cora just can't shake the feeling that Brit isn't everything she seems. Everyone's telling her she just needs to trust Ari, but she also doesn't want to see her partner get hurt.

When Cora's fears prove to be founded, it's up to her to protect her partner, and when the unspeakable happens, how will Ari bounce back? And will Noble Dreams be able to withstand the events that have the potential to shake it to its core?
