Excerpt from Chapter 4
The mare was halfway to her feet when she sensed and then saw the incredible sight of the churning flash flood only yards and micro seconds away from them. Wildly, she swung her head down and clamped onto the rising colt's neck with her powerful jaws in a fierce grip that pierced his skin. She came fully upright with her legs spread in readiness and the heavy colt gripped firmly between her jaws. The wall of water and debris smashed into them with the force of an explosion. The mare was knocked down and carried away in the maelstrom of sucking, swirling water. They were slammed into the ground and then washed away with the leading wave, smashing into tree trunks and tangled brush borne along with the raging flood.
Excerpt from Chapter 15
Standing on a high wind whipped ridge, his flaxen mane and tail whipped hard in the heavy breeze. The copper colored young stallion appeared to have been chiseled from bronze by a master craftsman. His developing muscles bulged against his copper coat and pushed hard against blood vessels corded across the surface of his magnificent structure. Far from his home range, and alone on this high ridge, Stormy welcomed the second spring of his tumultuous life.
Excerpt from Chapter 21
Swiftly, the racers made their runs. Ann and Stormy moved up. Ann felt Stormy's uneasiness growing, the longer she held him in check, awaiting their turn. "Whatever happens, we are really here! It's not a dream, Stormy!" Ann said.

Stormy caught sight of the rope flying in the air behind him. Images of Shorty and Gunpowder Creek, gunfire and high corrals, flashed through his mind. It was too much! He broke and ran! He bolted away so fast that Ann lost her seat and frantically grabbed for the saddle horn as Stormy raced out of the alleyway. Stormy was still galloping away from the fairgrounds. Ann called out to him, "Stormy! You have to trust me. We have to run back to the arena! Time is running out! We'll be eliminated from the race. Trust me, Stormy!"
