Just After Midnight by Catherine Ryan Hyde

Faith just left her abusive husband and escaped to her family's beach house, where she meets Sarah, a 14 year old who just witnessed her mother's tragic death. To make things worse, her father sold her best friend, her talented dressage horse Midnight. Sarah and Faith form a friendship, and when Sarah's life is in danger, Faith helps her escape. They decide to find Midnight and give Sarah a chance to say goodbye. As the two follow the dressage circuit through the summer, they help each other overcome the tragedies in their lives.
I think this book would appeal more to preteen/young adult readers. As an adult, a lot of the situations in this book are unlikely. Overall I thought it was a cute story that horse crazy young girls would like. I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
