A HEREFORDSHIRE woman has combined two of her passions – writing and  horses - in order to pen her second novel.

Jenny Lees, from Preston-on-Wye, released her debut novel Seven Bands of Gold: First Love, last February.

It told the the steamy tale of a young girl who, after suffering heartache closer to home, found excitement in the Middle East in the 1960s.

Now Ms Lees, who breeds and keeps Arabian horses for HM the Queen, HRH the Prince of Wales and several Middle-Eastern royal families, is preparing to release the next chapter of the story.

In book two, Sensual Love, the seductive Sheikh Abdullah takes the young girl's sex education to a new level – and the convent-educated and ill-prepared 19-year-old proves a fast learner.

The book is due to be published on October 16 and will be available from Amazon.

Books three and four, Forbidden Love and Unending Love, are due to be published in 2015.
