The Spanish daughter / Lorena Hughes.
Inheriting a cocoa plantation in Vinces, Ecuador, that someone will kill for, Puri, after her husband is murdered, assumes his identity to search for the truth of her father's legacy and learn the identity of the enemy who stands in her way of claiming her birthright.
Puri inherited her passion for chocolate from her father. At his death she learns she's inherited a cocoa estate in Vinces, Ecuador. Eager to claim her birthright and filled with hope for a new life after the devastation of World War I, she and her husband Cristóbal set out across the Atlantic Ocean. But someone is angered by Puri's claim to the estate, and a mercenary sent to murder her aboard the ship accidentally kills Cristóbal instead. Puri assumes his identity, hoping to stay safe while she searches for the truth of her father's legacy in Ecuador. At the estate she finds siblings, hidden affairs, and her father's dark secrets. -- adapted from back cover
