    About this audiobook

    Feisty Jenna Murphy doesn't give a whiff about an animal's pedigree. As the local horse masseuse, she knows she has the magic touch and is keen to help every animal in her small town, including her beloved pony, Peanut. Any extra money earned from her job at the Equine Center is earmarked for her younger sister. At least someone in their family is going to receive a college education.

    High-powered businessman Derek Burke's main goal is to fix his new company's financial woes. And the first thing on his agenda is to force employees to only look after Thoroughbreds. Working for free on trashy animals is simply not how a business makes money, and he's prepared to run off anyone who doesn't conform, even his attractive but free-spirited horse masseuse. Soon two stubborn people are caught in a battle of wills and there can never be two winners. Or can there?

      I picked this one up, looking for just a quick read (which it was) and ended up loving this story way more than I expected. Seriously enjoyed this one a lot!
    • 3/5
      Despite the number of good reviews I read for this book before reading it, the plot and characters just a little too unrealistic for me to really get into this one. Jenna is a super good person who...breaks the law. A lot. And Burke, the brooding businessman, who is set out to catch the thief, can overlook it because she is hot. I guess both of them really have their "rough edges". Lots of "back and forth" between these two also.On the other side, if you love horses, this book has your setting. And there is plenty of steam to go along with this one but not so much romance. Would I recommend it? For me, no but I guess it just depends on what you are looking for. I received this book in exchange for an honest review from Netgalley.

      When I read the title I just had to read this one! I’m glad I did, I really liked it. This was my first Bev Pettersen book. I will be reading more of them.

      This is a sexy and heartwarming romance from an author who knows what she’s talking about when it comes to horses and writes as if her readers are smart enough to understand. The story flows nicely and the conversations felt real along with the characters.

      Jenna is a very believable, soft hearted, and strong character. She’s trying to make sure her sister gets a college education and working her butt off as horse masseuse to do it. The challenges she faces, her loneliness, and Derek. Both Jenna and Derek have issues that have to deal with in order to come together and love each other.
