title: Tierra Libre
author: Ahmadi, Elena
description: America, 1834. The Texan War of Independence looms ever closer. Nestled in the untamed beauty of the Texas plains is the prosperous ranch Tierra Libre, home to Amy Jones, lovely and wild as the land she was born into, bold as the first pioneers. Dubbed 'Gentle Wind' by the Comanche warriors she grew up with, Amy's free spirit is tested by a marriage – covertly arranged by her loving father – to a ruggedly handsome Louisiana businessman. Finding herself in a strange land whose foundations are built on inequality and injustice, Amy becomes embroiled in a plot to free a slave from an insidious plantation owner, thereby jeopardising those closest to her and uncovering the dark secrets behind her marriage. In the face of insurmountable odds, will she risk everything for justice?
