The Perfect Distance - A Novel
$5.99 The Perfect Distance - A Novel by Kim Ablon Whitney
Francie may not look as beautiful on a horse as Tara.
And she may not have as much money as Katie.
But she's a rider a competitor and this is her last chance to win.
Sometimes Francie Martinez feels like she's hovering between two worlds. Her father is Mexican, and her mother although she doesn't really count is American. Francie spends hours mucking stalls with the other Mexican grooms, but when she mounts her horse, Tobey, she's one of the girls at West Hills. At school, she's known as the horse girl, but in the ring (and to Rob, one of the best trainers in the country), she's not the winner Tara is.
Now, Francie is ready to secure a place for herself in a world she knows she belongs. It's always been her dream to win the Maclay Finals in New York City. This is her last chance to prove to Rob (who's so busy praising Tara that he barely notices her), to her father (who's been collecting college brochures for the past six months), and to Tara (who's sure she's going to win) that she can do it. But when a new rider shows up at West Hills, he becomes a distraction just when Francie needs to concentrate more than ever.

Lead a Horse to Murder
$6.99 Lead a Horse to Murder by Cynthia Baxter
When full-time vet and part-time sleuth Jessica Popper is asked to treat a billionaire's ailing horse, she gets a deadly glimpse into the lifestyles of the rich and felonious....
Murder gallops after Jessie when an emergency call sends the traveling vet to a posh Long Island estate with her one-eyed Dalmatian, Lou, and her tailless Westie, Max. A prized Arabian steed needs minor medical care—but it's the rider who grabs Jess's attention. The handsome young horseman exudes plenty of animal magnetism as he canters across the field...and then takes an inexplicable, fatal fall.
The dead man was one of the finest polo players in the world, but it was no accident that killed him. The culprit was poison. And as Jess soon discovers, a number of people had the means, motive, and opportunity for foul play, from the hostile barn manager to the businessman's disgruntled wife. But Jess will have to temper her feline instinct with good old-fashioned horse sense if she's going to stop a killer from leading a certain sleuth to her death.
