Heartland is a place where horses come to be cured. This book is about a girl who is about to face the biggest changes in her life. Amy Fleming and her mother go out one night to save a horse from a raging storm. They found that he was abandoned by the thieves who stole him. Riding back to Heartland, the raging storm takes Amy's mothers life. The horse that was rescued from the barn is called Spartan. Spartan has changed since the storm. When Amy meets him, he is not like before. He is frightened of everyone. Especially Amy. No one believes he can be cured but Amy. But how can she cure him when he is afraid of her? This is a story of courage, bravery, and belief.
This is an awesome book! Amy is really good with horses,and herbal remedies. I love the joining up part where she connects with the horse.Lou, her older sister tries to be helpful, but sometimes messes up.She has to decide to stay at heartland or go to Chicago with her boyfriend, Carl. Lou gets a job mysteroiusly as soon as Carl mentions Chicago. Spartan, the horse in the accident acts really dangerous whenever Amy approaches him has to be put down.But Amy is not ready to give up yet! She joins up with Spartan and cures him. They locate his owner but is rejected because the stallion was gelded and no longer able to be used for breeding. Amy is looking for an owner for Spartan and meets the prevois owner's grand daughter who wanted him back. They give Spartan to the girl who rode him in the show. At a barn party Lou organized Lou realizes Carl set up the job in Chicago so she would go with him. She stays at Heartland and kicks Carl out.
This book was totally Awesome! Just like the first one by Lauren Brooke it is emotional and very well written. It is realictic and you never want to put it down. There is never a dull moment. Like when: "You can't balme me!" she screamed. "It wasn't my fault!" Amy yealled with the lead rope in her hands. I felt like I was there inside the story! I recomend this book to anyone who likes to read exciting stories. But have a napkin for the sad parts. I hope Lauren Brooke writes more of these books.
when i fist read Heartland,it was hard 2 put it down, it was a sad, but exciting novel; as a young horse trainer,i train horses through patience, respect and love also! this book is excellent for any one who loves horses. it doesn't matter what age they are!
I love this series and also the Canadian TV show that is based off of these books! I enjoy the story line and that she uses alternative medicine and herbs to work with horses to help them recover from trauma and loss. Although this is just a story, many people in the world are doing several things that Amy, the main character, does in this series and have seen great success in healing horses.
I read this book for a book report, and I thought I'd use my summary as my review.***** After the Storm by Lauren Brooke continues the saga of Amy Fleming and her family's horse rehabilitation center. In After the Storm, Amy blames herself for her mother's death because she wanted to save a horse. When the horse, Spartan, refuses to accept Amy as a friend and a good person, she begins to wonder if the rescue mission was futile. Many times she is set back by one of Spartan's lash-out fits, but she still tries to initiate a "join up," a special routine her mother used to understand the horse's specific needs. Ignoring her sister Lou's bossy ways and crazy ideas to get rid of Spartan and her grandfather's attempts to stop her from helping and healing Spartan, Amy perseveres and eventually makes a join up and earns Spartan's trust. This book is excellent reading material for horse enthusiasts of all ages as it provides good lessons, such as "Never give up," in a horse-centered environment. There are also many wonderful moments in this book, my favorite being when Spartan is reunited with his owner and his owner's granddaughter. I would recommend this book and series to anyone, especially parents with horse-crazy little girls.
This is an excelent series. There are currently 8 of them. The first one is probably my favorite, although it is a tough decision. I really love these books. They are very interesting,and exciting to read. I really enjoy reading the story of a girl named Amy, who has to overcome her problems. After a tragic accident, Amy must take care of Heartland (a horse sancuary) by herself. The story is how she gets over her fears, and saves her beloved horses. Lauren Brooke does an excellent job in writing these novels. I really enjoyed them, and am looking forword to the next one. I reccomend these to any one who loves horses, and just wants a good story!
Heartland is a place where horses go to be cured. In Heartland #2, Sparten a horse that had been in the accident that killed Amy's mother, has come to Heartland. Sparten is not the same after the accident. He is ill-tempered and when Amy tries to come near him he snaps at her. Ty thinks Amy is the only one that can help Sparten to be the kind,gentle horse he was before th accident. Read this book to find out if Amy can earn Sparten's trust back before it's too late.
