Ever since her mom died, Perrys been keeping up a frantic pace trying to keep her twenty-five-year-old horse healthy, her stepfather and her four-year-old brother happy, and her memories of her mom alive.
That frantic pace is the problem, though. The big, busy city is wearing everybody down, including Perry.
She was willing to give up her boyfriend, and even her best friend, to focus on her family, Lief and Justin, and her horse, North, but despite all Perry's efforts, Justin's sad and stressed, Lief's vulnerable, and North's health is in jeopardy.
When Perry inherits a house in the quiet, friendly town of Perryside, a move could be just what they all need if only Perry wasnt terrified of leaving the only place shes ever known her mother.
Will Perrys memories survive a move to Perryside? But without the move, will her family survive?

PRAISE FOR APPALOOSA SUMMERBOOK ONE, ISLAND SERIES
"What a beautiful story. Slip into summer on a maritime island, where a teenage girl is escaping painful memories and savoring independence for the first time. If you're a horse-person, you'll appreciate the accurate details and descriptions of equestrian life. If you're just looking for a great story, look no further." - Natalie Keller Reinert, Author of the Eventing, and Show Barn Blues series.
"This is a richly descriptive novel, making you feel as though youre really there. The characters are well-drawn and realistic, and the romance is a slow-build but pays off beautifully in the end. This is the kind of novel you just want to step into and live in the location, the people, everything seems idyllic yet realistic. I read it in one night, I couldnt put it down!" - Kate Lattey, author of the Pony Jumpers series.
"This is a lovely, delicate romance about two teens in mourning. What I loved about this book is that the boy and the girl learn from and heal one another ... I loved the witty dialogue and Jared was the type of hero with whom I could actually fall in love--that's something I seldom find in books nowadays! As an author of horse-related fiction myself, I found all of the details about showing and riding to be believable." - Mary Pagones, author of the Fortune's Fool series.
"Appaloosa Summer takes us on a sweet journey of a teenage girl dealing with loss, deciphering family relationships, growing up, and falling for a boy - all in one summer....and on a quaint country island. Tudor Robins writes so beautifully simple that the characters, scenery, smells, and feelings come to life on the page ... I thoroughly enjoyed this sweet, well-written story." - Brittney Joy, author of the Red Rock Ranch series
