Today I am excited to share with you my review of this fantastic country read from Fiona Walker. I would like to thank Head of Zeus for my copy of the ebook in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.
Book Description
They say you should never go back, but glamorous Ronnie Percy did just that, to the home she ran away from with her lover.
But not everyone is finding it easy to forgive and forget.
Daughter Pax, fighting for custody of her small son as her own marriage disintegrates, is furious to have to spend New Year's Eve waiting for some stranger her mother has invited to help run the family stud farm.
Even more annoyed is the staunchly loyal stud head groom, Lester. Does Ronnie think he's lost his touch with the horses? And anyway, who is this so-called Horsemaker, Luca O'Brien? Why does he seem to be running away from something? And what is the true story of his relationship with grey stallion Beck, once destined for the Olympics, now broken and unrideable, screaming his anger from the Compton Magna stables.
Passionate, sexy, gripping, laced with her trademark wisdom and humour, this is bestselling Fiona Walker at her dazzling best.
My Review
I was so excited to be given this opportunity and I could not wait to start reading.
Ronnie Percy has returned back to her family home to run the stud business her father had. This was not easy for Ronnie as she left home with her lover many years before. He family are still full of anger for how she behaved all those years ago and are finding it hard to forgive what she did.
Pax has returned home to her mother though, she has been having troubles in her marriage, not helped by her drinking and she is hitting rock bottom. She is determined to get her son back. Her cause is not helped when, on New Years Eve Pax finds her self stranded at the airport awaiting the arrival of horseman,Luca O'Brien who her mother has employed help turn the stud farm around. Pax turns to drinking while she waits and things turn from bad to worse for her relationship with her husband when he finds out she has spent a night away in a hotel with another man. Pax is determined to prove her husband wrong that she does not have a problem with alcohol and she is desperate to have her son back where he belongs.
head groom, Lester is not happy to hear about the new arrival at the stables. He is disappointed that Ronnie feels he can't run things on his own, he has also heard all of the stories about Luca O'Brien and how he treats his horses.
With the stud farm to run they all grudgingly work together. But they all have secrets they are hiding, some that they are desperate to keep to themselves and some they share to help themselves.
This is a story full of passion and is a gripping read.
I am a big fan of Fiona Walker and I could not wait to start reading this, once I started I could not put it down as it had me gripped to the story.
Ronnie is back in the family home and she is determined to make a success of her fathers business, just like it used to be. She is also wanting to repair the fragile relationship she has with her family, especially Pax as she can see just how unhappy she is. Pax is determined to get her son back and her mother is trying to help her and its great to read about the passion and anger the two of them have between them. As you read through the book you become more aware of the secrets between the pair of them. This is written so well that you really do understand their relationship.
The character of Luca is a very different one as he is a closed book and doesn't share his life history with the others. He has suffered in his past and that becomes more apparent as you read through the book.
There is also a cast of extra characters within the book that really help with the story lines that flow through the book. They all bring some humour and wit to the book too.
I love the writing style of Fiona Walker, it flows well and always keeps you wanting to read more.
This book is full of fun, passion and all the wit we have grown to love from her and this is a book you will never be disappointed in purchasing.
