A young writer becomes entangled in an illicit gypsy love affair, pulling her into a world of secrets, deception and dark desire.
Summer, 1976. Luz de Rueda returns to her beloved Spain and takes a job as the biographer of a famous artist. On her first day back in Cádiz, she encounters a bewitching, passionate young gypsy, Leandro, who immediately captures her heart, even though relationships with his kind are taboo. Haunted by this forbidden love, she meets her new employer, the sophisticated Andrés de Calderón. Reserved yet darkly compelling, he is totally different to Leandro but almost the gypsy's double. Both men stir unfamiliar and exciting feelings in Luz, although mystery and danger surround them in ways she has still to discover.
Luz must decide what she truly desires as glistening Cádiz, with its enigmatic moon and whispering turquoise shores, seeps back into her blood. Why is she so drawn to the wild and magical sea gypsies? What is behind the old fortune-teller’s sinister warnings about ‘Gemini’? Through this maze of secrets and lies, will Luz finally find her happiness… or her ruin?

Luz set eyes on him for the first time from her seat on
Zeyna’s back as the fine white Arab mare stepped down the narrow path from the
cliff that led to the beach. He was sitting on the edge of the track, leaning
nonchalantly against a wild carob tree, watching her while chewing on a sprig
of heather. As she drew nearer, she met his steady gaze, spirited and wild. At
that moment she had no idea this man would have the power to change her world
and create such havoc in her heart, that she would emerge from the experience a
different person. Fate had not yet lit up the winding pathway of her life nor
the echoes of history along it, but now, in front of this stranger, a
disturbing awareness leapt into flame deep inside her and began to flicker
intensely.
~Meet Hannah!~
Hannah Fielding is an incurable romantic. The seeds for her writing career were sown in early childhood, spent in Egypt, when she came to an agreement with her governess Zula: for each fairy story Zula told, Hannah would invent and relate one of her own. Years later – following a degree in French literature, several years of travelling in Europe, falling in love with an Englishman, the arrival of two beautiful children and a career in property development – Hannah decided after so many years of yearning to write that the time was now. Today, she lives the dream: writing full time at her homes in Kent, England, and the South of France, where she dreams up romances overlooking breath-taking views of the Mediterranean.
Hannah will be awarding a $15 Amazon or Barnes and Noble GC to a randomly drawn winner via rafflecopter during the tour.
Thank you very much for featuring my book blast. I’m really excited about this new release because I think it’s my most smouldering yet, and I love the Spanish setting. Have you been to Spain?

ReplyDeleteThank you. I have always loved dramatic, passionate romance. One newspaper said my writing is 'romance like Hollywood used to make', and that reflects my early inspiration in childhood well.
