Product Description
Gypsy. The very word brings forth a feeling of freedom, like the flowing rivers or the whispering wind. Alicia embraced the freedom of gypsy life and was proud to be the daughter of Rudolpho, the leader of the Gypsy caravan that was headed now for the forest outside the City of Toledo in Spain. It seemed to be just another night under the twinkling stars—until Alicia saved the life of a handsome stranger and found that what her grandmother had told her was right—if one saved another’s life, their souls would be joined for eternity. Rafael de Villasandro might never have met the beautiful gypsy girl had he not been hit over the head, robbed, and thrown into the river. When he opened his eyes and realized that she had saved his life, he knew in that moment that she was somehow part of his destiny. Torn between heart and heritage, they would be savagely parted. Abandoned—forced to leave her proud people, Alicia would be driven on alone. From the wilderness to the streets of a great city—from a clamorous world of the senses to a cloistered world of tradition—she would follow the thread that would revel a cherished secret. The secret that would aid her in her quest to save Rafael yet again as he braved the dangers of the Inquisition. Only at Queen Isabella’s court could they hope to find justice and a love far stronger than any earthly law. Under Gypsy Skies received a “Reviewer’s Choice Award” from Romantic Times Magazine.

Carol (USA: CA) (2011/02/22):
From book cover:WILD, PASSIONATE, AND FREE... Alicia had lived among the Gypsies for a long as she could remember. They might never have met, but danger drew Rafael de Villasandro to the wanderers' camp. Before day was done, Alicia had saved his life and he had claimed her ver sould.
Torn between heart and heritage, they would be savagely parted. Abandoned, forced to leave her proud people, Alicia would be driven on, alone. From the wilderness to the streets of a great city...from a clamorous world of the senses to a cloistered world of tradition, she followed the thread that would reveal the secret of her destiny. For as Rafael was drawn into the darkest heart of the Inquisition, life hung in the balance. Only at Queen Isabella's court could they hope to find justice, to fulfil the rapturous promise made...UNDER GYPSY SKIES
