Two years after being widowed, Lady Sophie Wilkins seeks the truth on how her husband died in Brazil. Though she married a dear friend, the marriage hadn't been a happy one. Sophie had really loved Alonso Huntsman Galvan, another dear friend. Throughout their teenage years, they'd been the Three Musketeers, sworn friends for life. Sophie had married Clive for the stability he represented, though her heart and soul had belonged to the reckless and dangerous Alonso. Alonso's intensity and the feelings he evoked in her had scared Sophie and spurred her to accept Clive's marriage proposal. Yet it was Alonso who turned out to be the most dependable, and it was Alonso who came to rescue her from her late husband's enemies in the Brazilian jungle. And it was Alonso who had the answers Sophie was seeking and the fulfillment that Sophie had always sought.

Jane Porter delivers a powerful entry to the Presents line and her Galvan family series. THE SPANIARD'S PASSION will knock your socks off with its drama and intense emotion and sensuality. Alonso Huntsman Galvan is one extraordinary Presents hero, and this reviewer's favorite Galvan.
