"He'll be old and bandy-legged ..."

Or so Roma's roommate had predicted of Earl Paget.

Roma had inherited not only the racehorse, Silver Cloud, but also Earl, its trainer. It was unfortunate that the man didn't match her roommate's description, because Roma quickly found herself falling in love with the domineering aristocrat.

That was bad enough. Then Roma suspected that Earl wasn't being entirely ethical in his handling of Silver Cloud--a situation she couldn't prove nor especially wanted to!
