Winner of Best Historical Fiction and Best First Book, ILBA, 2013.
When Alma flees with her young lover to Texas to escape an arranged
marriage with a much older man, she sets in motion a drama that
will put the sisters and their legacy at risk. Pilar, a 14-year-old
tomboy, is offered as a replacement bride, and what follows is a
sensuous courtship and marriage clouded by the curses of her
husband's former lover, Consuelo. She will stop at nothing, even
the use of black magic, in her effort to destroy the Sandoval
family. The Mexican-American war begins and the Americans invade
Santa Fe. The sisters are caught in the crosshairs of war from two
important fronts-New Mexico and Texas. Their money and ancient
knowledge offer some protection, but their lives are changed
forever.
