From the author of God and the Wedding Dress: An engaging historical novel of romance and intrigue based on the life of Don Juan of Austria.
On a midsummer day, storm clouds form over Alcalà as three young princes decide who will earn the attentions of the beautiful Doña Aña Santofimia . . .
While Don Carlos, the prince of Spain, wins the chance, it is the king’s illegitimate brother—Don Juan—who later wins the lady’s heart. But ambition, religious wars, and the machinations of the royal family divide the young lovers.
Don Juan must take his own fate in hand to protect those he loves, and Spain itself, amid the deep divisions that threaten to destroy it all . . .
