THE BOOK

 

If you were forced to marry a man you didn’t love, would you stand for it?

 

Neither would Madaléna, a young privileged woman in eighteenth-century Sevilla. She would rather follow her heart on a series of wild adventures, including an affair with a dangerous lothario, a sea journey to the New World, and an unlikely alliance with an ex-priest turned pirate.

 

Léna forsakes her comfortable life to roam the northern frontier of New Spain during revolutionary times. Along the way, she encounters murderers, treasure, and unexpected love.

 

Filled with thrills of the heart and body, La Protagonista is a grand story of two continents and a love vaster than the sea that separates them. Léna goes to extraordinary lengths to take control of her life and her heart—wouldn’t you?
