Mariana: part 1 (Dark Veil Series)

By A. Unda-Tames

He left her long ago. When she's invited to a clandestine celebration, can she cash in on love without getting into bed with the mob? Mariana's dreams have turned into nightmares. Abandoned without a word by the man she can't forget, eight years and a backpack full of illicit money have done nothing to keep the stunning Latina from relying on booze to numb her pain. But when she's given a chance to attend a secret Puerto Vallarta Day of the Dead party, she accepts and is immediately intrigued by a stranger disguised in traditional Catrin makeup. Determined to claim her alluring quarry, she gives chase through the hacienda--only to stop in her tracks when the lover she's yearned for all this time calls her name. And as she's drawn deeper into the mysterious games of the festival, the broken woman is torn between her desire for the intoxicating newcomer and the familiar danger of her dark delicious past. Discovering she's entangled in a cartel scheme hidden within the revelries, will a night of criminal passion end in fatal consequences?
