Heat at the Kentucky Downs: Lust and Revenge Beneath the Southern Sun

Five years ago, billionaire racehorse owner Alexander Voss wrecked Dr. Elena Reyes’s riding career with one reckless dare. Now she’s back at Kentucky Downs no longer a jockey, but a sharp, respected veterinarian. And Alexander is everywhere again. Wealthy. Charismatic. Carrying regret that looks practiced, and maybe isn’t.

Elena didn’t return for closure. She came with a plan. One contract with his prized colt, Midnight Thunder, gives her access to the man who upended her life. Close enough to hurt him back. But barns have a way of narrowing distance. Late-night calls under buzzing lights. Leather reins warm from use. Every touch pulls old heat to the surface. Anger tangles with want. Revenge starts losing its edge.

What’s at risk grows fast. Not just reputations or seven-figure bloodlines, but two people who never figured out how to walk away. Power presses from every side. Loyalty frays. The past keeps asking to be answered.

When the truth breaks loose, will they still be standing together?

Each book in the Dark Reins series stands alone, revealing a new scandal born beneath the lights of a different legendary racetrack.

In the high-stakes world of international horse racing, every stride hides a secret and every win comes with a cost. From London’s royal circuits to the burning tracks of Dubai, power and desire race neck and neck beneath the roar of the crowd. Behind the silks and champagne lies something darker ambition laced with lust, loyalty tested by greed.

Dark Reins pulls back the curtain on the affairs and rivalries of those who live for victory and fall to temptation.

How far will they ride before the darkness takes the reins?
