Love is the Reason for Living

Love is the Reason for Living is #25 in the Pink Collection and was published in October 2006.

Novella Crownley returns home to find that her mother has remarried and her stepfather has been selling off items from the estate including her favorite horse! She meets the man who now owns Salamander, Sir Edward Moreton. He allows her to ride while listening to her troubles. Can he help when her mother becomes ill?

This cover is identical to the UK cover of The Poor Governess: http://barbaracartlandbooksandcoverart.blogspot.com/2011/01/poor-governess.html It's interesting that the picture is reversed and that the heroine's hair is darker.
