Love's Sweet Agony — Patricia Matthews

REBECCA HAWKINS

She was young, beautiful and used to winning. But at nineteen her ideas of victory were confined to equestrian contests and harness racing. Now, as her womanly graces began to attract men, it would be a different kind of competition. Horses, she'd learned were much more easily understood, and handled, than men.

Soon, two men would challenge each other in a race for her heart, while still another man's lust would cruelly attempt to entrap her...

In the vividly colorful world of Kentucky thoroughbred farms and the social whirl that gave birth to the first Kentucky derby, an exciting glimpse of Americana heightens this dramatic love story.

And, as in all races, there are losers and winners -- and the thrill of the race. But most of all, for Rebecca, there is love triumphant!
