Story
The stories Hannah Gale’s father told her of breaking wild horses in Nevada one glorious summer when he was her age have captured her imagination. After her dad is called to fight in Iraq, she regularly stops to watch the horses at the nearby stable to feel closer to him, and finally gathers the nerve to ask the owner for a job. There she helps bring a rescued mare back from the brink, takes her first riding lesson, and witnesses the birth of the filly who steals her heart.

Story
Two girls plus two horses plus an entire summer equal...you do the math. Hint: enough calamity and escapades to exhaust a normal person. But Nicki and Wynne are far from average girls. Nicki and Wynne share a love of horses but not of adventure. Nicki finds herself being dragged by the strong-willed Wynne on trail-rides through thunderstorms; pig chases; hunts; and a horse show with an escaped pony determined to find her stablemate even if he's busy jumping on the outside course.

When she receives a full scholarship to attend Fairmont Riding Academy, a prep school with a famous riding program, she struggles with homesickness, hazing by the school’s snooty drama queen, intense competition in the sport of three-day-eventing, and the not-altogether-unwelcome interest of a hot guy. On top of all of that the horse given to Vivienne via the scholarship is an animal that she cannot "read" or understand.

Editor reviews
In this classic tale of girl-and-horse-against-world, 15-year-old California girl Finny adopts Sky, a skinny, untrained, bad-tempered horse with the intent to train him for show jumping - all with the help of a 16-year-old runaway, Joe. Narrator Luci Christian Bell brings a youthful vigor to Finny's words, enlivening her character with a cheerful go get 'em spirit, and vividly channeling her courage when Joe is kidnapped, with only Finny and Sky to save him. An uplifting, empowering story about a young girl's perseverance in training and audacity in love, Finny and the Boy from Horse Mountain is a must-listen for any teen who adores horses.
Summary
A thrilling novel for tweens and teens.
Against the backdrop of the high-stakes and intensely competitive equestrian sport of show jumping, Finny, a fifteen-year-old girl in California, adopts an emaciated, untrained horse without her parents' knowledge. Soon after adopting Sky, Finny meets Joe, a sixteen-year-old, who has run away from his cruel uncle in Montana. His love for horses and desire to be a trainer matches Finny's dream of competing in the show jumping arena—against rich girls on fancier horses—and together, they train Sky to become a first-rate show jumper.
But the path is fraught with danger. Sky is not like other horses and is so destructive and difficult he gets them kicked out of the barn where Finny has been working and training. Helped by a kind woman who owns a horse rescue, Joe is able to prove both his and Sky's incredible talents. When Joe is kidnapped by his violent uncle, Finny and Sky are the only ones who can save him. In a breathtaking finale, Sky and Finny must enter the underworld of the rodeo circuit, an after-hours, illegal race, where they will risk their lives to save the boy they love. Young demonstrates a masterful ability to set a breakneck pace and keep it up until the end of the book. Finny and Joe are enduring characters who are sure to appear in upcoming sequels.
