Duke's Wager

Maurice Everett, the Duke of Edenwick, would do anything for his stable master, Sebastian Wildgoose. Rather than acknowledge his depth of feelings for Wildgoose, or how attractive his stable master is, Maurice decides that the next best thing is to buy Wildgoose the horse that he desires. Except the Prince Regent refuses to sell, offering Maurice a bet instead.The Wager: Train four zebras to pull a four-in-hand carriage.The Prize: Derby winning colt Smolensk.When Sebastian Wildgoose hears about the wager, he shakes his head at the toffs and their nonsense. If only adding a Derby winner to the Duke's farm wasn't so appealing… Almost as appealing as kissing the Duke, or making him smile. It was beyond foolish to think that a Duke would lower himself to show any interest in a mere stable master, and yet, it happens.It can't happen again. Can it?
