What's There to Love?: A Thoroughbred Racing Romance of Secrets, Second Chances, and Courage (For Love & Horses Book 3)

She ran away to follow her dream. Now someone wants to make sure she never rides again.

From Kentucky’s legendary Thoroughbred farms to the gritty backside of the racetrack, Lizzie Stratton will risk everything to claim a life of her own.

Lizzie Stratton grew up in Kentucky’s powerful Thoroughbred breeding world, but the future planned for her has nothing to do with horses.

Her father expects obedience, a perfect reputation… and a marriage that will settle his debts.

Lizzie wants something else entirely.

She wants the racetrack.

Disappearing from her old life, she leaves behind her family name and the man she has loved since childhood—Chad McCollough—and starts over under a new identity, determined to learn the racing world from the ground up.

Chad McCollough built his empire on discipline and hard rules. One of them: women don’t ride his Thoroughbred racehorses.

But when a brilliant new horse refuses to trust any man, Chad is forced to consider breaking his own rule—if he can find the right rider.

What he doesn’t expect is the mysterious young exercise rider who turns him down… or the growing suspicion that she looks hauntingly familiar.

As secrets unravel and Lizzie’s past closes in, the truth threatens to destroy everything she’s fought to build.

Because in the high-stakes world of Thoroughbred racing, ambition runs deep, old betrayals never die… and someone is willing to make sure Lizzie never rides again.

From the lush Kentucky horse farms to the gritty backside of the racetrack, What’s There to Love? is a sweeping story of first love, hidden identities, and the courage it takes to claim your own life.
