GRR Review: BACKSTRETCH BABY by Bev Pettersen

Backstretch Baby, a contemporary romance by Bev Pettersen, managed to infuse thoroughbred racing with a suspense thriller and a romance with a pair of unlikely main characters:

Eve Lewis is the trainer relegated to a small track with a misfit crew and misfit horses. A rash of thefts and sabotages had almost destroyed her job when Rick Talbot entered her life. Rick was asked by one of the horse's owner to join her at the track as a handler to find out what is going on. What they found were their interest in each other... and a conspiracy, but of what? When a body was found nearby the stakes are raised to the breaking point...

The mystery and suspense were integrated nicely with the romance and there were enough red herrings to throw readers off on who may be the real perp. Very much enjoyed this novel.
