Avalon is missing home like she never thought possible, acid burns through her bloodstream at her situation of being stuck in the city away from her outback station home and her family. She realises that it’s not all doom and gloom in the city, she has forged new friendships, learnt life lessons, experienced unforgettable times and given new hope to others. Her wild heart and inner fire has captured the interest of two rivals. She allows herself to develop a deeper friendship with one only for him to turn on her. Betrayed and angry, Avalon reverts to what she knows, people that understand her and horses; finally finding a horse that she hopes will partner her in her quest to ride in the Olympics. Will the betrayal chill her heart forever? And what happens if a heart like Avalon’s grows cold? What will he have to do to win her back?
If you have not read this series then you need to pick it up now. I was introduced to Avalon through a book club that I belong to. I started following this book on Wattpad and fell in love. All someone would have to do is post that AVALON UPDATED and we all rushed to read and then talk about this book. This is book 2 in the series and you HAVE to read the first book or you will be totally lost. Avalon will have you laughing out loud and wanting to fight right along side her for the "little" guy and to right injustice. The antics that she comes up with seem so far fetched that they are believable and you can totally picture them happening. This story could go on forever and I would totally be ok with that. I'm not sure how many times I have recommended this book to others or that I have reread it (I'm not a huge re reader of books). I could also see this being made into a sitcom someday. Recommended for those who love romantic comedies, and getting back at the bullies in life. There is some language and innuendo in this book so I would say high school and older even though my daughter was in middle school when she first read it. Awesome job Shantelle McKinnon! 5+++ stars and I can't wait for more Av!
This series is an underappreciated Wattpad gem! It deserves a movie or tv show! I started this series on wattpad years ago & it's still one of my all time favorites! I'm so glad it's published along amazon some more people can find & read it! This series is my go-to to cheer me up! I can read it over & over again! It's just as funny & inspiring as the first time I read it! Avalon is my favorite female character I've ever read! She's loyal, hilarious, inspiring & the biggest animal lover ever! It makes you want to go out & do more & help someone out! It's refreshing to incounter a character that loves their horse as much as I do! Anyone willimg to break someone's nose over their horse is fine in my book! It makes me feel less crazy lol. Ag class had me laughing so hard I was in tears! Don't let a few typos or Aussie lingo deter you. My son's favorite show is Bluey so I now understand most of the Aussie lingo 🤣. I couldn't recommend this series enough!! It's 100% worth every penny & then some!
I don't have enough stars to give this book. And of course it stopped when I needed it to continue. And now there is no news from the author about the sequel. I am getting depressed. I need this book in my life. Ms. Shantelle if you ever get to read this, please write the 3rd book. This is the most incredible series I have ever read. There is no character out there that I love more than Avalon. She even surpassed Aethyn/Caelena in my eyes. That is a great feat to do. I will literally pay you to write the next one, I am that desperate. I need to know what Noah says. I need to see what happens when Nathan comes. I need this series.
No words can describe the amazingness that is this book, that is Avalon. I love her and her relationship with Amber, Frank and her brothers. Every single secondary character bring something great to the book and just reiterates the amazingness that is this book!
These books are absolutely addicting!!! When I start reading about Avalon I absolutely cannot stop, real life gets in the way and I just want to hide until I finish the book completely! Do yourself a favor and read these books, you will not be disappointed!!
I love the story but this book seems to be all over the place. Took me a while to finish it to be honest. To many point of views to really follow, other then that great story and I love the adventures Av goes on!
Absolutely love this book!!!!! Have my fingers and toes crossed for av and Noah as much as I love Seth I think Noah is better for her. Can not wait for the next book! Wish I was as kick ass as Avalon
Beautifully written. Fully of adventure and craziness but inspiring and fun. If you are unsure whether or not to read it, do read it you won’t regret it at all.
Avalon and her friends are some of the most dynamic group of characters. They are written flawed, real and vulnerable but so much more.
In comes along Avalon a country girl who works her family's station in unwillingly dragged into city life. She turns life upside down for some and helps others she meets.
Two boys she meets having her feeling more confused than ever. So where does things go when you deal with animal and horses better than people?
I might have seriously stuffed reviewing this but over nearly 400+ read books I can honestly say that this falls into my top 10 list of most memorable characters and top 3 of the funniest.
Its bad when you crack up laughing and all you can say is "this book".
