Sedona Princess

When two men vie for the same woman, they both lose. But the woman torn between them suffers most.

Lauren Auldney’s dream was to become a cowgirl artist, live on El Rancho de las Estrellas in Sedona, Arizona and bear Américo Rios ten children. From childhood, Américo Rios had been guided by his mother towards becoming ordained in the Catholic priesthood. But when he falls in love with Lauren his commitment to her proves as strong as his love for God, and for him there can be but one wife: Lauren Auldney.

Torn between the dreams of her father and Américo’s love, Lauren keeps her pregnancy a secret. After being banished from the rancho, through the healing power of art she bears the grief of her son’s death alone. Twenty-three years later the fate of the rancho rests on her decision, again forcing her to choose between her father’s wishes and Américo Rios, the man she could not forget.
