Such beautiful amazing writing. This is the first of your Riding Lesson stories that I've read and was completely captivated by your writing. Stunning work. Your characters are mesmerizing, the flow and pacing is perfect, all your details give the story a richness that's just wonderful.
I couldn't help but think that Cody got his just desserts and that, I don't know, that maybe Tanner had something to do with it and that his "running away" isn't exactly what it appears to be.
All in all, it's just lovely writing despite the harsh reality of the topic, still beautifully written
