The Horse Trainer, the Buyer & the Bride — Erica Penrod

When Vivien McIntyre's father purchased the horse she'd waited her whole life to train, she thought her chance had finally come to prove her ability as an elite cutting horse trainer. Instead, her father handed the position to Boone Jameson, a hot catastrophe in a cowboy hat. Things couldn't get much worse -- until her dad introduced her to her new stepmother and her new stepbrother, Lucas Royal. Vivien couldn't stand Lucas when they were teenagers. But when he proves to be the only person who believes in her talent as a trainer, she begins to see him in a whole new light. Torn by her spontaneous attraction to Boone and amazed by Lucas's continued support, Vivien finds herself caught between the two men. Determined to prove her ability in the arena, she's able to put her heart aside until dangerous secrets from Boone's past take her hostage. Like gunfighters in the Old West, she's caught ten paces from life or death. As the nightmare unravels, she doesn't know who she can trust, the horse trainer or the buyer. No one is who he seems, not even her father.
