Kept animals : a novel / Kate Milliken.
"Rory Ramos is a dutiful teenager with a love of photography who works as a ranch hand at the stable her stepfather manages in Topanga Canyon, a dry, dusty place reliant on horses and hierarchies. There she rides for the rich clientele, including twins June and Wade Fisk. June begins to take an interest in Rory--but she is more drawn to Vivian Price, the beautiful teenager with the movie-star father, who lives down the hill. Rory keeps largely separate from the like of the Prices -- but, perched on her bedroom windowsill Rory stills glimpses of Vivian swimming in her pool nearly every night. After her stepfather is involved in a tragic car accident, the lives of Rory, June and Vivian become inextricably bound together. Are they friends or foes, lovers or rivals?-sparking a series of events that come to a head the night a wildfire tears through Topanga Canyon, and Rory's life is changed forever. Kept Animals is narrated by Rory's daughter, Charlie, twenty years after that fateful 1993 fire. Rory is away on assignment as a war photographer, and Charlie knows the key to her own existence lies in the story of what happened during that unseasonably warm fall. And without her mother to tell her the truth, she must unravel it by herself."-- Provided by publisher.
