Description
Jump in the saddle for a laugh-out-loud-funny gallop into the first Dreamhorse Mystery
Meet smart (and sometimes foul)-mouthed jumper rider, Viola Parker, whose whipped-cream-in-a-can addiction is all that gets her through the day when her nights are invaded by a dead horse kicking up bad news...
Vi's attitude just landed her out of work--again--and she can barely keep her horse in hay let alone support her need for whipped cream. Now, all that's between her and a surprise trust fund is keeping a job for one full year by the time she's 30. And a glowing letter of recommendation.
But it's hard to keep a civil tongue when within minutes of arriving at her new post at a Missouri horse farm, Vi runs headlong into a bull, has to catch a runaway, and her horse kicks her kilt-clad boss, Robert Malcolm.
If Malcolm doesn't make the farm a success within the year, his father will sell it to developers. The new manager is a key component in his plan, but the moment Vi and her long legs and keen gaze step into his bull's path, he knows he's in trouble. Soon, sparks fly between them. But someone else has their eye on the land, too, and they will do anything to kill his success.
It's supposed to be a relaxing--boring!--year of riding "on the buckle." First, Vi's favorite red panties take a float downstream without her, and when she gets to the store to stock up on whipped cream, people are already talking about it. Soon, between the dead horse visiting Vi's dreams and the dead bodies piling up, the question isn't whether she can keep her mouth shut long enough to earn a reference, but whether she'll live long enough to get it.
˃˃˃ Bonus! Includes a sneak peek of The Good Horse, The Bad Man & The Ugly Woman, the new Witting Woman novella, coming soon from Candace Carrabus.
˃˃˃ Vi begins her story...
"The truth is, my parents are alive. Pretending they're dead makes their absence in my life tolerable. When the letter came from their attorney--crap--who would have guessed they had a lawyer? Anyway, it was like they were dead because it referred to money I might receive, "amount undisclosed." That was just like them. Jesus. Amount undisclosed. What the hell was that supposed to mean? It could be five dollars for cripe's sake."
