    Dad's number one rule was, "Just keep the horse between you and the ground." Even so, Eloise fell off her mare too many times to count. But in time, they made a winning team; Mom, Dad, Eloise, and a chestnut mare named Whiplash.But her parents' divorce, her mother's death, and estrangement from her father had knocked her flat. No effort on her part could change things. The bridge she thought she would cross had burned. Maybe it was her dad, Jock, who lit the match, but it was Eloise who had poured the gasoline on top.Eloise had made her peace. Now, reading history was a fine escape, and she loved her job at the animal clinic. Her online reading community, daydreaming, and caring for other people's animals fed her mind, heart, and soul, even if it was by proxy.Then early one morning a stray dog showed up at the clinic door. Then a faceless man on the Internet offers her a glimpse of an 18th century journal he claims to have found. If she wants more, she must get it from him. Eloise becomes obsessed with the stray dog and engrossed in the 18th century journal. The dog, the journals, and a horse called the "Red Devil" propel Eloise on a journey.A journey that puts her back in the saddle, both in the present, and in 18th century Virginia.

    When it comes to fear, horses and humans are not so different; emotions can overtake reason. The rubber snake might as well be a real snake - the nightmare reality - when they elicit the same response. Blind fear will make both horse and rider try to outrun lions, even when those lions are made of paper. Blind fear can send you straight over a cliff, and even if you manage to pull up before the edge, that is no way to live life.It is only through training, training, and more training, and then testing that training, that you learn to turn and face fear, find courage, and welcome the ride, wild though it promises to be.These are the rings of fire, the trials that lie ahead for all of us, whether they be taking command of a spooky horse or navigating more human problems. Once trained, with worthy companions marching with you, shoulder-to-shoulder, you are ready forthe ride.Welcome to The Dressage Chronicles IV: Rings of Fire.

    Margot tells Lizzy that nothing in life is ever really settled, not until they "pack the earth over your grave, darling."And of course, as usual, Margot is right.Although Lizzy is living her dream at Equus Paradiso Farm, there is no guarantee that her future is settled. She is terrified to think that despite her hard work, despite her commitment and desire, her efforts may not be enough.Regardless of the shifting sands beneath her feet, Lizzy still has a job to do. It is a job with growing responsibilities, without regular hours, without weekends off, that pays almost nothing and beats her up physically and mentally.And while success is not guaranteed, failure in part or whole appears to be.Maybe she is foolish with her rainbow and unicorn thinking; maybe the naysayers were right all along and reality is coming to kick her in the rear and eject her out of paradise and back out into the ordinary world.Not all good deeds are rewarded, or efforts even appreciated as the territory of her daily routine gets trickier to navigate.Life is not fair. But giving up before the battle is finished is not an option.Though she'll be tested, though she'll know doubt and failure, she will come to discover that she is indeed the right girl for the job.
