This fast-paced travel romance is Part III of a trilogy. This is an upmarket love triangle
In Part III, Autumn Simmons, an American naïve artist, flees from the Sahara Desert to Hispaniola, a Caribbean island, divided into two nations: Haiti and the Dominican Republic.
While there, Autumn encounters two men, initially friends, who become rivals vying for her affection. One pursuer is Xavier Cortada, a piano prodigy who paints 'Costumbrismo' style paintings, a style favored by his ancestors, descendants from Spain. His father is the third-richest man in the DR.
The other man is Haitian-born artist, Francois Dubois. Born to 'caneros', sugar plantation workers, he has garnered substantial acclaim for his 'market' style paintings, which sell in prestigious galleries around the world - New York City, London, and Paris.
Will Autumn choose Cordoba and live in luxury in a ten-bedroom villa atop a mountain in the DR?
Or
Will she choose his best friend, Dubois ... a charming lady's man -and- a clandestine, Haitian 'Brigadier'?
The author encourages the reader to Google artwork by Dominican, Jose Morilla, and Haitian Artist, Jean Bruno Louisius, and to view Bachata and Kompa dance and listen to Jazz Dominicano on YouTube.
