After her family moves to Maryland and her dad deploys to Afghanistan, Sadie gets a new young horse named Lucky who proves to be a handful--but all of that is just the beginning of the trouble in this young adult novel. Together, Sadie and Lucky encounter horse thieves, Maryland storms, and unwanted horses destined for auction and uncertain futures.

Now, that mare is headed to a ranch in Montana and a home Sadie knows nothing about. She wants to make sure the horse is in good hands, but Montana is far away and a different world from Maryland. Will fourteen-year-old Sadie need to stand up to rugged cowboys to protect her special rescue horse?

The Military Writers Society of America (MWSA) is a diverse group of authors: active duty military, veterans, civilians, and family members. We are historians, journalists, memoirists, bloggers, poets, musicians, and novelists. Some are old pros. Others are just beginning their writing careers. Most are somewhere in between. A love of the United States military binds us together as colleagues and friends. Every few years, MWSA provides an opportunity for members to be published in one of our anthologies. Reflections: Service to our Country includes poems, articles, and stories. Some will make you laugh. Others you will find enlightening. You may even shed a tear. We hope you enjoy our reflections in keeping with MWSA's mission of "Saving History One Story at a Time."
