The Viscount's Revenge (The Royal Ambition Series book 4)
“She heard the wind still roaring outside, but knew that Susan would be hell-bent on riding, no matter what the weather. It proved to be as good a tonic as any for a sore heart. The two girls galloped side by side through the empty Park, Amanda on a borrowed horse and Susan on her black horse called Pericles. At last, even Susan felt she had had enough exercise and shouted above the wind that they should return home. They swung their mounts around and cantered side by side under the tossing trees. Amanda was wearing a wool dress and cloak but Susan was wearing a dashing riding habit of bright green cloth, ornamented down the front and on the cuffs á la militaire with black braid. They were nearing the gates of the Park when they saw an odd figure approaching. A great rawboned horse was bearing a slim masculine figure dressed in dandified morning dress. His guinea-gold curls peeped out from beneath a wide-awake, and as he came nearer, the girls were able to see he had a very beautif...ul, sensitive face and vague blue eyes. He reined in his horse and Susan and Amanda brought their mounts to a halt.MoreLess
