Tremendous!

For those of us adult horse lovers, this book is not to miss! There are too few authors out there that weave one of our life passions into words.

Well written with good horsey detail

I really enjoyed this book. It's well-written in general, and has a terrific background in the American "A" hunter-jumper circuit. The author clearly knows her horses, because the details are unusually accurate, which makes it a pleasure to read if you're a horse lover. (Her other novel, Ride a Dark Horse, is similarly excellent.)The romance is fun and pleasantly steamy, and the characters stay pretty smart throughout - there are no painfully stupid moments to read through. There are occasional plot conveniences (in particular Ty would've been very well known on the circuit) but none too jarring.I especially liked the scene with the car keys.

I'm glad I bought it...

I stumbled across this book while shopping, and I'm just sorry Laura Moore doesn't have more books in print. I enjoyed "Ride a Dark Horse", but I liked this one even more. If you haven't already read it, you should give it a try. I think you'll like it. I just can't wait for Laura's next book to come out...

Loved the book!!

I loved Chance Meeting and am looking forward very much to the next book. Could it be about Lizzie and Sam? I enjoyed how the characters from Ride a Dark Horse were tied into this book. It only took me four hours to read it, it was that good. I am a horse owner and I love to read so naturally I look for the "horsey" romances. I hope to see many more from Laura Moore!

This romance is great

In Lake Placid, New York, Ty Stannard always loved horseback riding because it was her only escape from a harsh demanding father who was never pleased by anything she did. Her hero since the fifth grade is the highly regarded equestrian superstar Steve Sheppard. Ty hopes to one day be as good as her champion, who she meets as a teen when she competes at a junior's event. Steve gives the enthusiastic youngster a lucky medallion, which becomes Ty's most cherished possession. However, a nasty horse ended Ty's dream of a championship. Years later, Steve is near financial bankruptcy with his reputation shredded and his farm heading towards bankruptcy due to the stupidity of his former partner. Ty's father stands ready to attack like the vulture he is once the final foreclosure occurs. Ty wants to help her hero whose gesture years ago at the Junior's remains one of the few bright spots in an autocratic lonely childhood. Though he wants to refuse her offer of a partnership, Steve has no choice but to accept. However, this is no gawky teen any longer and soon the two new partners begin to fall in love, but her nasty father remains perched prepared to do whatever is necessary to gain Steve's farm. CHANCE MEETING is an angst-laden contemporary romance filled with two deep lead characters. The story line is exciting as Steve and Ty fall in love in front of a backdrop of the sport of equestrian and the machinations of her avarice father, whose greed and demand make Midas seem reasonable. As usual Laura Moore provides a wonderful compassionate novel because readers feel the hurt, mistrust, and love of her key players.Harriet Klausner
