The Hidden Heiress: A Rider's Comeback

I was Sarah Miller, the top rider at Sterling Meadows, surrounded by my closest friends and acclaimed mentor. That day at the nationals should have been my triumph, but it split my life in two. Cornered by a dangerous rival, Rocco, my friends Ethan and Liam had a choice: me or Chloe, a new, supposedly "delicate" student. They chose Chloe, mumbling excuses about her inexperience, and then they walked away. They abandoned me to a notorious criminal who intended to harm me, or worse, my prize stallion, Comet. Despair, cold and sharp, enveloped me as Rocco' s men closed in, ready to orchestrate a devastating "accident." How could my closest friends, my trusted mentor, leave me to such a fate, a hollow promise echoing behind them? The betrayal shattered me more than any physical threat, leaving me reeling, utterly broken. But then, chaos. I woke up, not in a stable, but on a private plane, then in a room I hadn't seen since childhood: Kingston Ranch, Montana. My father's empire. My secret. The truth of my lineage was a shield I never knew I had, and now, it was time to understand why.
