| Summary: | Robert Tremaine<U+2014>lately of his majesty<U+2019>s diplomatic service<U+2014>was fast running out of money and options, and unless he turned his luck around, his prospects were rather bleak; he<U+2019>d no job and was too ashamed to seek help from his former cohorts in the service. Therefore, he<U+2019>d staked everything he had to purchase a remote homestead in the southern Spanish mountains<U+2014>an abandoned property he<U+2019>d once visited during the Peninsular War. It was a gamble, but his family had been Welsh miners for generations and he<U+2019>d the strong feeling that the land might yield a fortune in gold<U+2014>and his one chance at redemption. It wouldn<U+2019>t be easy, of course; he<U+2019>d have to shed some bad habits<U+2014>and figure out a way to shed the foreign woman who seemed to believe the land belonged to her. |
