Dark Side of Love

In claiming her inheritance - a sprawling ranch in a remote part of Mexico - Sirena knew she faced the biggest challenge of her life. The conditions of her inheritance include the dark, haunting presence of Ramon Savedel who'd been appointed to guide her in learning the ins and outs of ranch life. But what the conditions hadn't revealed was the presence of her neighbor, Ramon's mother and Patrona of the adjoining rancho, former lover of her great uncle from whom Sirena had inherited, Carlotta.

A wounded woman Carlotta had found some solace in her relationship with Austin Reese, Sirena’s great-uncle, but her pain had turned to bitterness, anger and greed, destroying what had been between them. And Serina’s inheritance of what Carlotta had determined to be hers by right had fanned the flames of the older woman’s fury and greed even higher.
To what lengths is she willing to go to wrest Rancho Reese from Sirena? Will the budding love between Sirena and Ramon be able to survive the onslaught of Carlotta’s determined grab for the ranch through her sons?

And what of Ramon? His glittering eyes entranced Sirena; his brooding presence disturbed her, enthralled her, his harsh insinuations wounded her deeply. Sirena swore to resist him, she needed his guidance to run the ranch - and she needed his love.

It was a cruel trick fate had played on her...to find her lifelong dreams so entwined with the threat of heartbreak.
