The
smell
of
diesel
fuel
was
overwhelming
as
Jade-R
clutched
her
legs
against
the
pain
of
her
father’s
savage
beating.
After
years
of
looking
down
the
hill
at
the
loading
docks
in
Agana
Harbor,
she
was
now
in
the
cargo
hold
of
one
of
those
ships,
with no hint of its final destination.
As
an
only
child,
daughter
of
the
governor
of
Guam,
growing
up
in
the
governor’s
mansion,
she
had
a
life
of
terrible
loneliness,
yet
extreme
luxury,
but
always felt safe and loved. Now, that was shattered!
Sixteen
years
old
and
pregnant,
she
was
fleeing
her
father’s
rage
and
threat
of
a
brutal
forced
abortion.
Curled
against
enormous
bags
of
rice,
she
removed
her
shoe
and
blood
poured
onto
the
dirty
floor.
Terrified
and
exhausted
from
her
escape,
the
vibration of the ship’s engines finally lulled her to sleep.
Her
ensuing
journey
would
take
her
across
oceans
and
countries,
barely
surviving.
Death,
murder,
and
a
life
tiered
in
terrible
deceit!
This
is
the
story
of
The
Guamanian Princess.

Terrified,
she
glanced
back
at
the
mansion.
Past
the
pool,
she
could
see
flames
billowing
up
from
the
burning
tiki
torches.
She
felt
the
hard
ground
beneath
her
knees
and
smelled
the
sweet
scent
of
lemon
blossoms,
mixed
with
all
the
blood,
and
heard
dogs
growling
beside
her.
Was
this
a
curse?
Where
in
this
savage
part
of
the
world would they find safety?
It
began
during
the
summer
of
1982
in
the
elegant
little
town
of
Redlands,
California.
Monica,
the
mayor’s
daughter,
at
the
age
of
twenty-two,
met
Victor
Dimarco,
a
hotel
owner
from
the
British
West
Indies.
She
found
herself
weakened
by
his
charm
and
drawn
to
an
exotic
life.
His
lure
was
as
powerful
as
the
unexpected
flavor
in
a
bite
of
delicious
dessert.
Committed
to
an
unfulfilled
marriage
to
David,
her
childhood
friend,
she
held
secrets
never
told;
secrets
that,
if
exposed,
would
break hearts and sadly destroy the family.
Now,
during
her
shattering
fling
of
love
in
this
third-world
country,
she
would
endure murder, horrific guilt, and finally beg for redemption.
At
times,
you
will
be
moved
to
tears
as
you
experience
this
unforgettable
story,
a
romantic journey like never before!
