More than anything, Cam Porter wants to join the South Shore Centaurs, a local riding club, but first she needs a horse—any horse. Cam thinks she’s found a way to make her dream come true when she comes across a shaggy, neglected gelding that nobody else wants. She dreams of turning him into the magnificent horse she’s always wanted. But Galahad has different ideas. He hates the saddle and fights the bit. Every time Cam gets on his back, he bucks. It looks as though she’ll never get him trained! Then one day, when Galahad meets another horse, he finally comes to life. He’s suddenly cooperative and good-natured. But when Cam tries to work with him again, Galahad returns to his old tricks. Maybe all he needs is a true friend. Can Cam ever grow to care for such an unlovable beast?
