About the Book

Peggy's desire to be loved sometimes gets her into trouble. An accidental pregnancy sends her world and all plans for the future into a tailspin.In the early 1970s women were at the precipice in a new wave of fights for equal rights. Even so, Peggy, like many girls her age, wanted to get married and start a family. She yearned for the chance to choose her own dinner menu, one without tuna casserole. While working for her father at Aqueduct Racetrack in New York, she meets an immigrant from Mexico, Jacinto, who had recently come to the states to be a jockey. Jacinto and Peggy hit it off from the start but quickly get themselves into trouble. Pregnancy. Unable to deal with the pressure, Jacinto acts out in anger, sometimes uncontrollably. When tragedy strikes, Jacinto blames Peggy and becomes dead set on punishing her. This time, his anger gets the best of him, and it may cost him, and her, everything.Follow the lives of several young women in this provocative series about living in an era of redefining roles. Their inspirational stories help women find strength, resilience, and their place in this world.Review-"Perfect books for horse lovers, particularly those interested in women breaking into horse racing in the late 1960s!"-"Great mixture of horse racing and romance as the author deals with real life issues women sometimes go through."-Reviewers often mention the author's detailed knowledge of horse racing and a writing style that keeps you hooked.-These books have been called, "hard to put down" and "page turners."-They're geared toward young women, but male reviewers have also enjoyed them, even though they wouldn't normally read stories like this. The fast pace keeps them drawn in.From the AuthorAs a relatively new author, I realize I need time to develop a following. My review numbers may be small, but my books are well-written, well-edited, and well-loved. My books are entertaining and I think you'll enjoy reading them even if you're not into horse racing. I try to incorporate real world issues, especially women's issues, into my books. As someone who has survived a lot in life, I have some experience to work with and not only is it healing for me to write, it's healing for those who read the stories.I started Chivalry (book 1) with the intent of writing a romance novel, but I felt compelled more, to make it different than your ordinary romance novel, and I decided that it was important to mention the struggles of women in the late 1960s, in particular, the struggle for women to break into horse racing. The result of adding that plot line (not one you'd find in your average romance novel) landed it in the "historical fiction" category. Since then, I decided to stay there and focus on history with a little romance on the side. I wanted more for my books than the usual romance plot, and I think I've established that.I have a small fan group now, but they are loyal and anxious to read whatever comes next in the series. I'm working feverishly to get the other books out as soon as I can for them!
