About the book
She has been taught more about horses than men. How could she judge the sincerity of suitor? The Earl of Templecombe had dared to kiss Miranda Melbury at their first meeting. Perhaps he had been provoked - she had been wearing boy's clothing, had spoken to him with most unladylike acerbity and had required rescuing when her horse bolted. But surely a man so ready to take advantage of a lady in distress deserved the slap she gave him. Now, it was rumored that the Earl, somewhat the worse for gambling losses, was looking for a new source of funds. Was he planning to offer for Miranda because had become an heiress - or did he plan to finance his future by other, more criminal means?
