Master of Horses

(1999)
A novel by

 
 
Maria Encanta, enslaved daughter of a despised Indio and a wealthy aristocrat, has been ordered to captivate Don Diego de Andalucia, the famed Master of Horses, and convince him to remain in the New World to fulfill his destiny and her father's dreams. Instead, she secretly plans to steal the newcomer's horses and deliver them to her mother's impoverished people who still follow the buffalo on foot...

Diego has fled his homeland to escape retribution for a murder he did not commit and to search for gold to buy back his freedom. Seeking haven on the great Sea of Grass, he lives for the day when he can return to Spain and claim his vengeance along with his inheritance--until he discovers lovely Maria asleep in his bed...


MASTER OF HORSES is a compelling romance wrapped around the little-told tale of how
Spanish horses, first brought to the New World by Spaniards searching for gold, became the forerunners of the American Mustang and other breeds that later became symbols of Native American freedom.
