content: I have always been a huge fan of the Thoroughbred series until I read the latest books. They are absolutely nothing like the others, and the main characters are annoying! Has anyone else noticed that Ashleigh has changed completely, and the other main characters such as Sammy, Tor, Cindy and Max have disappeared. The main reasons I read these books was to follow these characters through their lives, and for the excitement of horse racing. Now these have both gone. I really want to know what happened to Sammy. Did she marry Tor? Have kids? And as if she would leave Whitebrook to move to Ireland anyway. Bring back Joanna Campbell and the old style of books with characters that you actually wanted to read about!
