I did not enjoy this book at all. It goes under a false genre by calling it romance when a good majority of the book is on the topic of abuse. Especially Lily being abused by Ryle. I get the premise by showing awareness on what abuse in relationships is like, but it seems like a false narrative when the author has the book cover super colorful and calls it romance.

sonshinelibrarian's review against another edition
3.5
There is a pretty problematic depiction of the one "villain" of the story - he is half American Indian and half Black and is described in the book as a "half-breed" and is never given a name but "Breed" and his behavior is implicitly stated to be part of his character as a half-breed. I think it would be important, if reading this with children, to find some ways to talk about these kinds of prejudices.
I think horse lovers and fans of Black Beauty in particular would enjoy this book.
