The Secrets of Emberwild


4 stars…Thank you to Revell, a division of Baker Publishing, who sent me this book to review. I love a good horse story especially when it involves a woman who loves horses. I also love a good feminist and Nora definitely is out of the norm as she wears pants, rides horses, wants to run the farm, and doesn’t want to marry for anything, but love- in 1905. At the beginning of the story Nora and her father have a discussion on his death bed that leaves an initial mystery. The mystery grows as a new horse trainer arrives to the farm searching for answers to his own mystery: what was the situation regarding his father’s death, and where did his father’s prized horse go after his death. The mysteries bring Nora and Silas together. I liked the relationship between the two.
