Lord of the Land

the long version

She had a quest, and nothing would stop her High in the Andalusian mountains, Frances sought information on the rare Spanish imperial eagle. Finishing her late father's book was all-important. Another kind of predator, however, thwarted her attempts--El Conde, who abducted Frances for a purpose of his own. "Tradition has imposed upon me the duty to produce an heir," he arrogantly informed her. Frances, swayed by the mystery and superstition of his Gypsy ancestry, fell under his irresistible spell...and fell in love.
