crime equestrian equine heart heartbreak highstakes horse horserace horses intrigue love mystery race romance thriller

Secretive, domineering and consuming, the world of horse racing is as gritty as it is exclusive. These beautiful creatures are reserved for the elite. It is obsessive, with everything coming down to numbers and percentages: breeding, racing, winning -- everything is a gamble. 

As dangerous as it is, the rewards are unparalleled, as waitress Clara Reid well knows. An avid horse fan, Clara spends what precious time she has helping out at her local stables. Working her job, caring for her younger sisters and nursing her sick mother, she sure as hell knows the importance of money, power and time, the three things she does not have in abundance.

Jude Castillo, son of the mighty horse trainer Fredrick 'Freddie' Castillo, is your typical rich boy. Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, his father's many wins have allowed for his family to have a more than comfortable lifestyle in the 40 acre property of Larkbridge House. Now he walks in the footsteps of his ancestors, dividing his time between training upcoming Thoroughbreds and racing on the circuit. But Jude holds his own secret, one that could put his family's reputation at risk, which leads him to need a new groom... one that he can trust with his life. 

Can Clara and Jude find their way in the web of lies of the horse racing sphere? Or will the stakes be too high for the pair to be honest with the world, and more importantly, each other?

Southern Charm by anj6232

Jessie White stands out from the crowd. As a Southern woman, she defies the typical expectations for a twenty-four-year-old. While others her age might be in college or embarking on new careers, Jessie's upbringing on a ranch alongside four brothers equipped her with skills many would balk at. She's adept at horseback riding, calving, stall cleaning, and more. Fiercely independent, Jessie refuses to rely on any man, a resolve hardened after heartbreak at the hands of Max Lane, a rancher's son, two years prior. Jessie has resolved to take up bull riding, a skill that appears to be a family legacy. Her lifelong dream has been to ride a bull before an audience, but now, her ambition has shifted to rescuing the White Family Ranch after a substantial portion of their funds vanished and debts began accumulating. Max Lane's family is eager to buy the White Family Ranch, but Jessie refuses to let him take away the one thing that sustains her. Being a beauty bartender owner and a female bull rider makes things challenging. Everyone says she can't do it because she's a woman, but Jessie is determined to prove them all wrong. Initially skeptical, Trace Black doesn't recognize her potential until he witnesses her mount a bull for the first time. Although he may appear arrogant externally, that pales in comparison to his internal complexity. Trace and Jessie are initially oblivious to their chemistry, though it's evident to everyone around them. As Jessie gathers the courage to express her feelings to Trace, the things she dreads occur. However, it doesn't make matters worse; it alters everything profoundly. *WARNING* Book contains language, child loss, trauma, etc. Thank you for choosing my story!

I was slowly remembering everything. "I hate you!"I shouted seething from anger as I gritted my teeth to stop myself from attacking him. He was really tempting me and I knew it wouldn't be long before I would attempt to pull his face apart and rip out his throat. "Not more than I hate you Alexander Norman. Trust me." He said emphasising on the name that seemed so foreign to me yet that was my real name. He had a mischievous glint in his eyes as he seemed to enjoy the internal battle I was having in my head. " So back to my story-" He drawled in an attempt to irritate me before he continued. " Your mother married me because I had her secret and I threatened to ruin her with it if she did not give in to my wishes." "And what exactly was her secret?" I asked. "She killed your father." He responded and glanced at me probably waiting for my reaction at what he just said. ●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●● Scandals brew in the air once more. Lies in the web of deception and atrocities committed, he seeks to unravel them. Would the past rear its ugly head and untangle all the mysteries? Started[November 2022] Finished [August 2023]
