Julie feels free and happy whenever she’s taking rides with Rose Petal through the trails behind the girls’ Aunt Abby’s house. Then one day, while on a ride, Rose Petal is spooked by a mysterious sound and throws Julie off. Julie is injured and is scared to ride Rose Petal or even be near the horse. Julie’s even afraid of her own family. All except Megan that is. Can Megan help Julie to overcome her fear and most importantly, to never give up on herself or her love for their horse? Meanwhile, the girls’ cousin, Kassy, shows up on Abby’s doorstep unexpectedly and she’s all alone.
