This is my all time favorite book of Diana Palmer's.
Midnight Rider takes place in Southwestern Texas in 1900. Bernadette Baron has two major handicaps; severe asthma and her father, Colston. Colston is a wealthy, self-made man who feels that he does not receive the respect that he deserves because he is from Ireland and considered 'new money'. He feels that if he gets Bernadette married to someone of social prominence, preferably titled, he will gain the respect he wants. He has no compassion for his daughter, and only sees her as the reason that his wife died in childbirth. Eduardo Rodrigo Rameriz y Cortes is as "handsome as a dark angel", the son of a Spanish Nobleman and an American socialite. Bernadette has always been in love with this mysterious man despite his scandalous past. Eduardo is close to bankruptcy due to his mother's spendthrift ways. When he hears of Colston's plans for Bernadette he realizes that marrying Bernadette will be the answer to his financial problems. Bernadette is thrilled with the idea, both to get away from her father and to see if she can make Eduardo feel as she does.
