In 1780 Spain, a young woman of less than noble birth would do well to marry above her station. Love is an afterthought-if thought of at all-yet it's the only thing on eighteen-year-old Madaléna's mind.
Léna's wild heart leads her away from her betrothed and into the arms of the alluring and seductive Armando de Velazquez But nothing beautiful can last; Armando's sudden death leaves Léna lost, and she boards a ship to the New World to find herself.
What follows is an epic adventure told in rich, elegant prose. Deep passions and danger abound as Léna traverses the northern frontier of New Spain in revolutionary times. To survive, Léna must grapple with pirates, murderers, and the whims of her own heart.
The untamed landscape of New Spain reflects Léna's inner wilderness. She isn't sure what she's looking for, but she'll know it when she finds it-or when it finds her.
