Secrets in the Sand

Saddle Island #2

by Sharon Siamon

The second book in the Saddle Island series.

From the author of the widely successful Mustang Mountain series comes a second adventure in the new and exciting Saddle Island series.

Set on the wild and windswept landscape of Nova Scotia's eastern shore, Secrets in the Sand finds heroine Kelsie and her friend Andy strapped for cash when more horses come to Saddle Island. There's a wild pony from Newfoundland, a mustang mare rescued from the Rockies, and a thoroughbred with no future on the track.

Meanwhile, Hank Harefield, who wants to turn Dark Cove into a tourist center, schemes to buy Aunt Maggie's oceanfront property and Saddle Island. Only a search for pirate treasure on the island holds out the hope that Kelsie and her friends can save the horse sanctuary.

I was disappointed when I reread the first in this series, as it didn't hold up to how much I liked it when I was younger. I still loved this one, though! I feel like the characters become so real in this book, and the plot is just perfection. I mean, a story about three tweenagers searching for treasure on an island with their horses as their families are losing money? What more could a tweenager ask for from a book? Its stereotypical in the best way, with just enough uniqueness to be exciting.

My one issue with this series is the ages. I feel like they all act at least a year older than they are stated to be, Kelsie maybe even up to 15. A bit of imagination can fix that, though. Overall, this book still holds such a special place in my heart!

I didn't enjoy this book as much as the first but it was still interesting. I'm not really fond of Kelsie unfortunately.
