I LOVED that the author actually *knows what she's talking about*!!!! Before reading her bio info, I knew she worked with horses (and has done so for quite a while!) with all the little details and how easily the horsey terminology just rolled out as every day language.There was suspense. There was romance. There was funny. The people were real, believable. There was competency of knowledge of Things. I like!!I had a really good time reading this book. I got it for 99c, so I wasn't sure what to expect; upon finishing, I've acquired another book from Ms Pettersen to read next. This, after staying up until 3am when I had to work in the morning... This was a very good romantic suspense novel that kept you reading. I look forward to reading other books by this author. Racehorse trainer Kurt MacKinnon resents being yanked back into undercover police work. But when his ex-partner is brutally murdered, he moves his third-string horses to a dirt road track, determined to hunt down the killer.Struggling apprentice jockey Julie West pins her dreams of a vital win on the charismatic trainer, never suspecting she's a person of interest-and not because of her riding ability.Kurt didn't expect his temperamental colt to blossom under Julie's deft touch nor for his own rusty heart to soften. However, his deception draws them both into the cross-hairs of a killer...and now much more than their love is in danger.
What do You think about Jockeys And Jewels (2000)?
This book was recommended to me. It was just okay but I don't really like horses.
