Tromperie

By Z Cristine Grant

Raine has two secrets. A poor relative of wealthy nobility, she should maintain a ladylike demeanor. Instead, she proves herself a capable equestrian by disguising herself as a boy and racing her powerful chestnut stallion, Trompiere. Should her relatives discover her racing habits, they'd be scandalized.

That's one secret. The second is her love for Thomas Ashton, seventh Earl of Stafford. One of the most eligible young bachelors in the country, Ashton is a broodingly handsome man with both wealth and power. Why he'd even glance Raine's way is beyond her.

When a carriage axle breaks on a rain-swept road, Raine has a chance to express her love for Ashton in the most complete way possible-an indiscretion that ends in a marriage the young earl quickly regrets. He hides his new bride, coldly informing her that any child from their union will be raised by his mother.

To protect her child, Raine must flee, hiding in London and racing Trompiere to gain money for passage overseas. Meanwhile, someone is stalking her. It must be Ashton-who else would wish Raine any harm?

A stirring tale of passion and regret, Trompiere throws the reader into the heyday of British nobility.
