Ladies and Gentlemen (Silver Shores Book 1)

Danica Rossi wants nothing more than to make it through the next seven weeks and begin a new life with her young son; a life of which she has only been able to dream. Before that dream can become a reality however, she must meet her commitment to work at the prestigious hunter/jumper shows at the Silver Shores Equestrian Complex on the California coast. To bring her desires to fruition she must first traverse the absurdities of a narcissistic show manager and her talented, yet damaged ex-husband, and the continual jealous rages of a spoiled twenty-something who views Danica as a stumbling block to her happiness. When an unspeakable crime is committed on the show grounds, the stakes escalate further and everyone becomes a suspect…or a liability, and Danica's future is placed in jeopardy. An unexpected alliance with the determined detective assigned to the case further complicates Danica's efforts to navigate the arena of elite horses and riders, limitless bank accounts and trust funds, and a murderer on the loose; all of whom leave no doubt that this horse show is a place where there are very few ladies or gentlemen.
