Hearts Racing is such an enjoyable read! Lexi Craig is an amazing character - a city girl school teacher who finds herself pursued by the escaped murderer she helped put behind bars. Not only does Lexi find herself out of her element on a working ranch, she also finds herself falling for Travis Strong, the stoic, quiet cowboy who owns it. Carol Ritten Smith has written two very engaging, believable characters who work together to overcome the pasts that haunt them. I especially appreciated the realistic portrayal of Travis' adolescent daughter. Ms. Smith beautifully captured the behavior of a girl that age, as well as her father's confusion when his normally easy-going little girl starts to play him like a violin. Add in the author's wonderful descriptions of the countryside, and Hearts Racing is a book you'll enjoy!
