Sweet Victory

Kit Randall found it hard to hold back her tears as the horses at Randall Farm were auctioned off. In the two years since her father's death, she'd tried her best to salvage the thoroughbred horse farm that had brought her family acclaim. But when she learned the extent of her father's debt, she had no choice. She was forced to sell the farm, her home, and the horses -- including Copper King, the colt she'd raised herself. Alejandro Menendez came to the auction to buy a colt. Then his eyes wandered to Kit Randall, and all thoughts of business fled from his mind. Her spirit and beauty could lead a man to fantasize, but Alex had no time for a lazy rich girl. From the day he'd left the dusty Mexican border town of his youth, Alex had worked to fulfill his dream of building a racing dynasty. A spoiled girl like Kit would only get in his way. Kit couldn't deny her interest in her exotic-looking man who caused as stir at the auction. His hard, rugged body was built to master horses. His gray eyes were hypnotizing. Kit found this intriguing ... until she heard the words that turned her life upside down. Alex Menendez was the new owner of Randall Farm.
