Description

Book Four in the popular new series! If the sum total of Liv Lachance's self-worth is the collection of all the things she's done, she's coming up short. Three-quarters of a veterinary degree. Two-thirds of a Canadian Triple Crown. With her star racehorse Chique retired, she's feeling adrift, and her father's racing stable, Triple Stripe, is without a Big Horse. She decides it's time to throw herself back into her career as a jockey, even if her impending marriage to fellow rider Nate Miller incites conflict of interest rumblings. But life has other ideas for Liv when a death in the family and illness in the Triple Stripe ranks turn everything upside-down. The saving grace is that Big Horse? He's waiting in plain sight. But as she realizes how far this Big Horse might take her, she's finally learning that her greatest accomplishments are about so much more than winning races.

"Mixing together hope, heartbreak and romance, a dash of rivalry, and a great deal of excitement, Good Things Come delivers all the goods in terms of top-notch racing fiction. Set in the world of Canadian racing, the story is that of an intense young woman, a troubled young man, and the quirky but talented filly they both love. This is the first book written by an accomplished equine artist and former backside worker who knows her subject well and tells it with a master's hand." - Dr. Tony Ryan Book Award for excellence in Thoroughbred racing literature, finalist 2020.
