"Hurry!" Megan ordered, her breath fogging in the frigid air as she leaned forward in the saddle. Her horse, a headstrong bay mare with an urge to nip, galloped through the forest as night closed in.

I've read several of her other historical/fantasy/romances and really enjoyed them. I picked this one up at the library sale for 50 cents. The back cover sold me and the first line sucked me right in. I've gotta find out what she's running from...or to!
