Flames of Flemington: Love and Scandal Beneath the Cup Lights

Under the bright lights of Melbourne Cup week, Evelyn Fairbourne plays the perfect heiress. Every smile rehearsed, every move calculated to uphold her family’s empire and her engagement to a man chosen long before love ever had a say. But one glance across the stables changes everything.

Aiden works in the shadows of her world hands rough from labor, eyes that give nothing away. He knows better than to want her. She knows better than to look back. Yet something dangerous sparks between them, quiet and unstoppable. Each secret meeting draws them deeper into the kind of scandal that can ruin them both.

As race day nears, ambition and loyalty blur beneath the roar of the crowd. Pride clashes with desire, and every heartbeat feels like a wager they can’t afford to lose.

When love crosses the finish line, what will it cost to claim the prize?
