Sondra (Sonny) Meade went home to San Francisco from Paris to find that her late father left only half of his Thoroughbred business to her. The other half, he left to Michael O'Brien, Sonny's nemesis and her unrequited love to him was the reason why she left home.Her father's will forced Sonny to work with Michael for 6 months, or lose everything. Yet, as days went by, Sonny's heart was the one in danger of being lost once again to Michael.And just to complicate things for Sonny who was already confused with her feelings for Michael, the horses and her heritage, Pierre, her French lover and mentor visits San Francisco.A great storyline it had the potential of being a great read but it fizzled on the first three chapters for one reason alone - bad editing and so many typos that it became distracting.Sonny could have tugged at your heartstrings and Michael could have been an unforgettable character. Even Pierre could have been a good foil to Michael. Unfortunately, the author did not grab that opportunity.Pierre was written out to be a cliche Frenchman and fashion designer, which quite frankly was so off the mark that it made me wonder if the author at least did some research about fashion and fashionistas.All three major characters remained two-dimensional until the end. That coupled with typos that was prevalent in the whole book just made reading this an unpleasant experience.This book is PG 13 due to situational drama. There are no sex scenes in this book.
