Josiah is happy for her pals Lady Elsmere and Shaneika Mary Todd when broodmare Jean Harlow gives birth to a male foal sired by Comanche. The owners of both horses have high hopes the foal will become a stakes winner—maybe even win the Kentucky Derby. The foal has a broad chest, indicating significant lung capacity—important for winning races, but just like his daddy, the foal is ebony with a bad attitude.

Josiah and Shaneika visit dam Jean Harlow early one morning and are shocked to find the prized foal is missing. They frantically search Lady Elsmere’s and Josiah’s farms without success. It’s urgent they find the foal fast as he is not yet weaned and is too young to be separated from his mother. Who would snatch the feisty foal from his mother’s care? And equally important, why?

About Abigail Keam

Abigail Keam is an award-winning and Amazon best-selling author who writes the Josiah Reynolds Mystery Series about a Southern beekeeper turned amateur female sleuth. Besides loving history, Kentucky bourbon, and chocolate, Abigail loves honeybees and for many years made her living by selling honey at a farmers’ market like her protagonist, Josiah Reynolds. She is an award-winning beekeeper who has won many honey awards at the Kentucky State Fair including the Barbara Horn Award, which is given to beekeepers who rate a perfect 100 in a honey competition.

Miss Abigail has taken her knowledge of beekeeping to create a fictional beekeeping protagonist, Josiah Reynolds, who solves mysteries in the Bluegrass. While Miss Abigail’s novels are for enjoyment, she discusses the importance of a local sustainable food economy and land management for honeybees and other creatures.

She currently lives on the Kentucky River in a metal house with her husband and various critters. She still has honeybees.

Welp....this will be a live release and hope they don’t block it again. The upside I guess is that I got my preorder rights back.
So if you preordered...I’m sorry. Guess the interior contents were too much for whatever asshole read it and decided it would be a good idea to remove it and block it.
I’m over it. There has to be a better way....KOBO is looking more and more enticing everyday...and come to find out. It’s cheaper for readers to have a subscription there.
I love writing and basically do this full time even though I have a fulltime job. Listen....if you know me...you know I never sleep. I just don’t know how much longer I can go on like this.
If you love my books...this one is WILD...so when it releases...download. Shout it from the rooftops. I lost everything bc of this block. And now I’m left fucked. So yea Happy Freaking Tuesday.
I’ll let ya know when it goes live. If Amazon continues to be a fucknut I will have it for sale on my website. Until then we wait.
Again I’m sorry this has happened. I don’t like disappointing any of my readers but this is the 3rd book and I’m at my wits end with Amazon.
Sit tight my little creatures. We will figure this out one way or another!

BLURB

They were, by all accounts, the picture-perfect couple. Then, Raze’s betrayal—a wound of the deepest kind—shattered Bailey’s world, and he vanished like a cloud of smoke. Bailey’s broken heart, seeking solace, found an unexpected haven in the arms of someone she had long considered off-limits.
Yet, when a long-kept secret, meticulously hidden from her, finally surfaced, Bailey was torn. Would she honor the call of what’s right or surrender to the intoxicating, dangerous dance of family loyalty and chaos? The solid ground of her former life was already dissolving. The familiar lines of her existence blurred, smudged by hushed confessions and stolen glances that promised both rapture and ruin.
Now, with Raze’s sudden return, the chaos was no longer a contained tempest; it was a raging hurricane. Bailey was caught between two men whose desires, as potent as they were treacherous, tore her apart in opposing, ruinous directions.
The true question wasn’t who she would choose, but how much of herself she was willing to lose in the process. The combined presence of her men, intricately woven with secrets and danger, presented a challenge that transcended her heart, threatening to redefine her entire existence.
The choices ahead weren’t about right or wrong, but about survival, and discovering who she was becoming in this whirlwind of conflicting desires and unfolding darkness.
