Editorial Reviews

The Barnes & Noble Review
Bestselling author Catherine Coulter delivers another Sherbrooke novel with verve and humor in this new historical romance featuring spirited racehorses, a very determined woman, and an equally determined man. Here she returns to the story of handsome Jason Sherbrooke, the twin who fled to America for five years following the romantic fiasco detailed in The Sherbrooke Twins. Now it's Jason's time to return home. When his twin, James, takes him to see Lyon's Gate, a once-great stud farm now for sale, he sees his future. But that future becomes doubtful when Jason learns that the unscrupulous former owner has sold the farm to two different people. The second, equally determined owner is Hallie Carrick, a young woman who may be more horse-mad than Jason. The two arrive at an unorthodox, unconventional compromise: They will both own and run Lyon's Gate. Like Jason, Hallie is convinced she will never marry, but how many women can resist the sight of Jason's good looks?

Coulter keeps up the pace with the blossoming of their inevitable and sweet romance, the excitement of their first race, and the dirty tricks of their opponents. There are plenty of old friends from past Sherbrooke novels to add to the fun. Ginger Curwen

From the Publisher

After a self-imposed five-year exile, Jason Sherbrook purchases Lyon’s Gate, an English stud farm. There he meets Miss Hallie Carrick, whose papers reveal that she has purchased the property, too. With the sale in dispute, the seller makes a decision based on the wisdom of Solomon. Anne Flosnik’s narration is superb, as are her characterizations of major and minor British characters, which are so good they give the sense of multiple narrators. Her depiction of the kindly but pompous butler, with an imperious tone and upper-crust accent, makes him a memorable character. However, the plot is weak, and the romance nonexistent. Only devoted Coulter fans will enjoy this one. G.D.W. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine
