More About This Title Against the Odds

English
Leaving home to work in a racing stable, Sian finds that the long hours and hard work are more than she bargained for. The only compensation is her responsibility for her favourite filly, Double Jump.
It's the last straw when she has to reject amorous advances from the trainer's arrogant son, Justin, so when Double Jump is moved to another yard, Sian decides to follow her.
At the new yard she meets stable jockey Madoc Owen, who is battling with Cymru, a bored flat-race stallion. If Cymru truly has potential as a steeplechaser, Madoc could retire from his career on a high, but do Sian and Madoc have a future together?

"delightful on several levels. Ms. Millard's knowledge of and experience with horses and "horse people" gives this book an authenticity that enriches the story of Sian and Madoc. Her knowledge of human nature fleshes out the personal stories as well. It was a thoroughly delightful and satisfying read." Amazon USA, April 2013
"The race descriptions were especially exciting, moving along at a sweeping pace. " Amazon UK, March 2013
"It's not just the book which is first past the post. I'm almost certainly not the target audience for this sort of book but I have to say it is an enjoyable read. and well worth giving a go. I sped though the text with the speed of one of the horses which are the book's heroes. Give this book a try, I think you will be pleasantly surprised." Amazon UK, Feb 2013
