ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date July 21, 2020
For Brielle Armstrong the pomp and circumstance of the days leading up to the Kentucky Derby are truly the most thrilling time of the year. Press junkets, designer gowns, everyone schmoozing her in hopes of getting in her daddy’s good graces. What’s not to love?
But this year, her heart is racing with anticipation to see Colby Hensley. As a former trainer of her family’s champion horses, his rugged sex appeal has always filled Brielle’s mind with naughty thoughts of a little barebacked fun.
Even though Colby walked away from their farm, her father Butch, would never approve of him. But what daddy doesn’t know can’t hurt him. If their secret comes out, it could cost Brielle everything. Still, what fun is life if you don’t ride it at a gallop?
Grab your riding crop, and place your bets. It’s Derby Day!

REVIEW:A DATE FOR THE DERBY co-authored by Heidi McLaughlin and LP Dover is a contemporary, adult, erotic novella, and the fifth stand alone story in their DATING series. This is horse trainer Colby Hensley, and Heiress Brielle Armstrong’s story line. Like the previous instalments A DATE FOR THE DERBY is a complete stand alone. You do not have to have read any of the other stories to follow along.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Colby and Brielle) A DATE FOR THE DERBY is a second chance romance between horse trainer Colby Hensley, and heiress Brielle Armstrong. Colby Hensley is in love with Brielle Armstrong but a few years earlier, while working and training horse at the Armstrong stables, Colby discovered that his boss and Brielle Armstrong’s father went behind his back on a deal for a horse. Disappointed and furious Colby called out his former employer and in doing so found himself looking for another job. Having walked away from the Armstrong stables meant walking away from the woman he loved but with the approach of the Kentucky Derby, Colby knew he would have to face Brielle Armstrong, and the hatred she continues to direct at our story line hero. What ensues is the rebuilding romance and relationship between Brielle and Colby, and the potential fall-out when the truth is revealed, and Brielle is forced to choose between her father, and the man that she loves.
A DATE FOR THE DERBY is a fast paced, quick read that focuses on family, second chances, betrayal, misunderstanding and love. The premise is energetic, captivating and engaging; the characters are colorful and dynamic; the romance is sexy, sweet and steamy. Colby Hensley risked everything for what he believed was right, and in doing so lost his family, his friendships and the woman he loved. Once the truth is finally revealed, Colby discovers that the losses are temporary but the love is forever.
