As always, I love this story! Emma's becoming quite resourceful since it sees like everyone is giving her a hard time as the newbie. But she's not about to let them get the best of her. I love it!
Try not to be gone so long this time, hm? And good luck with the move. Again. ;-)
You're down to two jobs? You mean you actually have time now for things like food and sleep? I'm glad for you! However, I'm sure the guy that trims the bushes outside your bedroom window is going to miss you big time when you move. ;)
I adored this excerpt. Curses on Clint and Mandy trying to get Emma lost, and Bravo to Emma for outsmarting both of 'em and showing them up. There was only one thing I found that you might want to change:
When we got to the top of the north run, he opened the gate with a clever side pass on his horse, going through the gait and holding it open for me without dismounting. Shouldn't that be gate?
Oh, and I already want to adopt Timber, take him home and love the dickens out of him. You have a great talent at making horses come to life in your stories!
