The Kirkus ReviewA breezy, engaging family saga about spirited women and their beloved horses. Sublime Book Review: An enjoyable, well-written, action-filled novel that follows a not-so-typical Texan family through decades of life experiences.Kirkus Book Review: A breezy, engaging family saga about spirited women and their beloved horses.Appaloosa Sky is Lonesome Dove meets Sex and the City meets Nancy Drew. It is a tale of love, loss, family, and the ravages of time-but most of all, it is an ode to tough women who do what needs to be done.At only eleven years old, Ginny Spangler is left orphaned after a horse theft gone bad. As Ginny grows from a self-reliant young girl to the fiery matriarch of a sprawling Texas ranch family, she passes on her resiliency and bold spirit to her nieces, Scottie, Rory, and Georgie O'Brien - sisters that are growing up with a distant mother and a fun-loving but troubled father. Even as little girls, the O'Brien sisters know they must solve their own problems and take charge of their own lives. Without parents to rely on, the sisters look to their Aunt Ginny for support and to the fictional Nancy Drew for a role model. What would Nancy do? becomes their secret battle cry as they learn to help each other through the thrilling ups and tragic downs of adolescence and early adulthood as they find love, experience loss, and raise their own families. After passing decades and family rifts set the women on divergent paths, the grown O'Brien sisters learn that their beloved Aunt Ginny is in danger and their family ranch is headed for destruction. They once again channel their childhood refrain, What would Nancy do? as they attempt to reunite to rescue Ginny from her abusers and save the ranch. But their mission is no merry heist. The peril is real, and the consequences have the potential to shatter their family entirely.
