Charmaine Pauls | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

Cy is heir to the powerful empire of his parents, a mining enterprise in Chile, South America. Their future power depends on his ability to produce an heir, a daunting prospect, as the human race is becoming infertile. But Cy's mother - a cold-hearted scientist - left nothing to chance, when, at her son's tenth birthday, headed a project to artificially inseminate a fertile woman. At thirty years of age, Cy is instructed to marry Elena, who his parents surrogated and adopted for one purpose only - to have his baby. Elena was hidden in a secluded cloister where the nuns, renowned for their mysterious magical practices, taught her the art of meditation and healing. A cruel education ensured that Elena submitted to her destiny, namely to give Cy a child. Soon Cy will learn that there is more to his bride than submissiveness. Under her gentle beauty hides a powerful woman who can give Cy peace. She holds the key to his heart and he begins to believe in the destiny that had been preached to him all his life.
