Carole Hanson is sure she can win at this year's Colesford Horse Show, while Stevie Lake would be satisfied with just a simple ribbon.

Tensions are high between Stevie and Scott, who has never forgiven Stevie for the car accident that injured his sister, and now that Stevie's boyfriend, Phil, and Scott are hanging out together, something's got to give.

When Carole Hanson tells Alex a secret, he breaks up with Lisa, but Carole can't fret over Lisa's anger because she is worried about her slipping grades that could keep her out of the big horse show.

As Pine Hollow stables prepares for the wedding of its assistant manager, Carole Hanson finds herself falling in love with Cam and eager to follow where he leads, and Stevie Lake and Lisa Atwood face changes in their relationships.

Visiting Marguerite, a family friend and fellow horse lover, Lisa finds herself in a dangerous situation when Marguerite leaves her alone on the trail, and Lisa is thrown and injured.

As Thanksgiving approaches, Lisa Atwood, whose brother's surprise announcement spoils her visit to California, Stevie Lake, whose friends no longer seem to have any time for her, and Carole Hanson, who has been forbidden to ride as punishment for cheating on a test, all feel very little reason for gratitude.

Carole Hanson returns to Pine Hollow to work full-time with the horses she loves, while striving to mend a broken heart and forgive herself for the mistake she made. .
