The Eagle and the Sun
Passions ran high under the Mexican sun

Jewelry designer Cassandra Elliot looked forward to her combined business and vacation trip to Mexico. She'd explore the famed Ibarra gem mines while enjoying the local culture and customs.

Her dream began to fade when her boss's selfish son, Derek Prentice, decided to accompany her. Worse still, when Miguel Ibarra, their Mexican contact, met them at the airport, he made it clear they were not welcome.

Miguel was handsome and haughty, with a fiancee whose manner matched his--and yet Cassandra was hopelessly drawn to him. It was as if Miguel possessed a force as primitive as the Aztec gods.
