Nineteen-year-old Stella must overcome her fear of horses to save her reputation as a Grove Station Farms riding instructor.

***

Nineteen-year-old Stella must overcome her fear of horses to save her reputation as a Grove Station Farms riding instructor.

***

Stella does not believe she will return to the saddle, but that doesn't mean she still feels connected with the farm where she teaches. To save her reputation and regain her confidence, she has to get on the farm's newest steed, Monkey.

Monkey, a horse like none other, senses Stella's fear and does everything he can to help her regain her confidence, even though he occasionally acts out and bites. That does not mean he wants to hurt the birthday girl. The greatest gift he can give her is a lesson that changes everything she knows about riding.

While Stella wishes to win her battle, she can't do it alone and fears she'll fall again. Curses will become blessings, but that's after she puts enough work into her goal.

With Monkey's help, Stella needs to open the door to the life she once had, even if it means putting up with her sarcastic student, Maise, and learning that sometimes the best way to overcome fear is to fight fear itself.

***

*Moral: The best way to overcome fear is to fight fear itself.*

|SHORT STORY VERSION · EDITED|

Lost in the depths of the Lady Evelyn-Smoothwater Provincial Park, Ranger Kate meets a mysterious hermit who may very well have a connection with the decade-old legend of the Ghost of Ontario.

***

Ranger Kate wants only one thing: to see her son, whom she lost to a canoe accident ten years ago. The opportunity comes when she and her partner, Ranger Amelia, attend the 24-Hour Ghost of Ontario Challenge in the Lady Evelyn-Smoothwater Provincial Park. Legend has it that a ghost haunts it with his mysterious lullaby, "Lucilla," and the only way to connect with him is for two individuals to brave the lakes.

Ihaan never expected to find Ranger Kate on Red Squirrel Lake, said to be the birthplace of the ghost. He and his eagle friend, Ro, band together to win her trust, which is crucial for Ihaan's Guardian Trial. It's the only way for him to learn whether he is truly dead.

Fate turns to reality, and suddenly, the legend of the ghost is more real than Ihaan and Kate think. What will happen when the Spirit Animals come and try to interfere with their long-lost memories? Will Kate and Ihaan defeat them, or will they lose themselves to the hands of Ontario's Beast?
