The Teen Years: Miranda and Starlight trilogy by Janet Muirhead Hill

This three-book set includes Books 7, 8, and 9 of the Miranda and Starlight series, following Miranda through high school and beyond. In Book 7, fourteen-year-old Miranda and her friend Christopher take their horses to the Crow Fair to compete. When one horse vanishes, a dangerous search in the Pryor Mountains puts Miranda’s life at risk. In Book 8, Miranda sells and buys horses, entering a major competition at a South Dakota fair. Misunderstandings and tangled emotions involving a charming horse rancher’s son strain her relationship with Christopher. In Book 9, during her senior year and beyond, Miranda’s trainer, Higgins, encourages her to race her horses, believing they were born to run. When a horse goes lame, Miranda faces tough choices about her future and her horses’ fates. A semester abroad at a large horse farm with Starlight brings new friendships, challenges, heartbreak, and triumphs.
