Fugitive from Love — Grace S. Richmond

Tom Morton's uncle had left his fortune to the six horses he had cared for more than anything else in the world. Tom and his cousin, Brenda, would only inherit the money when the horses died. It was Lindsay Trent who had the job of caring for the horses. Lindsay had settled in to Marcott Grange and was happy - until it became clear that someone was determined to destroy the horses and clear the way for Tom and Brenda.
