Description

When Maria Cable returns from university to her family farm, she is shocked to see the mysterious figure of Phillip Carter wandering her stables. Maria cannot understand why her grandfather has invited this suave Ferrari driving stranger to their property. She is even more perturbed when he shows an unwarranted interest in her beloved horse, My Chance. Maria feeling protective over her colt, her last link to her deceased father, is curious to find out why Carter has shown up on the scene. To her dismay, her grandfather reveals that the farm is in jeopardy and selling My Chance to Phillip Carter would settle their debts. Furious that Carter has purchased one of her paintings of My Chance, a conformation that he wants the horse for himself, Maria seeks revenge. Determined to keep her horse, Maria, along with her close friend and farm hand, Gary, hatches a plan to save the day. At the Chepstow races she places a large bet using the money Phillip Carter paid for her painting. All hopes of saving My Chance lay on the last race of the day. But Maria's tumultuous relationship with the beguiling Phillip Carter confuses her. The young artist is commissioned to paint other horses at Carter's estate and whilst staying the night at his ancient fortress, her feelings oscillate between annoyance and an amorous affair. After an accidental success on the racecourse, Maria must decide which track to take. Will she fall for the charming Carter or will her feelings for the ever-dependable Gary take a turn when he threatens to move to New Zealand? Faced with a difficult decision, Maria's grandfather encourages her not to leave it too late, not to miss the chance of a lifetime...
