About the Book
★★★★★ |
A gifted rider in a world
where ladies never race, Maggie Linden is determined that her horse will
become a champion. But the one man who could help her has vowed to stay
away from thoroughbred racing forever.
An Irishman far from home, Cullen McGrath left a once prosperous
life in England because of a horse racing scandal that nearly ruined him. He's
come to Nashville for a fresh start, hoping to buy land and begin farming, all
while determined to stay as far away from thoroughbred racing as possible. But
starting over proves harder than he'd wagered, especially when Maggie Linden's
father makes him an offer he shouldn't accept yet cannot possibly refuse.
Maggie is certain that her mare, Bourbon Belle, can take
the top purse in the inaugural Peyton Stakes, the richest race ever run in
America. Maggie only needs the chance to prove it. To give her that
chance – and to save Linden Downs from being sold to the highest bidder –
Maggie’s father, aging, yet wily as ever, makes a barter. His agreement includes
one tiny, troublesome detail – Maggie must marry a man she's never met. A man
she never would have chosen for herself.
Tamera
Alexander’s masterful storytelling shines once again in her newest novel, To
Win Her Favor. She crafts of beautiful, romantic story, incorporating quite
a diverse and enticing range of historical details - thoroughbred racing,
post-Civil War hardships, racism towards both the recently freed slaves and the
Irish. And with plenty of ups and downs and twists and turns, along with
well-crafted, fleshed out characters, I loved every bit of To Win Her Favor,
from beginning to end, and felt a bit sad that it had to come to an end. No fan of Tamera
Alexander will be disappointed reading this novel. It’s one I would certainly
recommend - and has me eager to read more from Tamera Alexander in the future.
