The Starling's Summer — Ruby Loren

A stolen horse, an unwanted saviour, and a stable on the brink of bankruptcy.

Hayley Argent just wants to give something back, but the Hawley-Jones Riding Stables appear to be beyond her help. She's promised to do her best to solve the mystery of what happened to Romani's stolen horse, Starling's Summer, but with no clues left behind, she's forced to admit he may be gone for good.

When wealthy bachelor, Russell Orpington-Mills, rolls up at the stables with three eventing horses in tow, Romani would be mad to turn away a new client, but Russell's business comes with strings attached. He's Romani's mother's idea of the perfect marriage match, but Romani's idea of everything that's wrong with the world of horses.

One stormy night, Hayley hears an intruder and suspects the thieves have returned. But catching them in the act is dicing with death!
