There was a saying that the Pelente men loved only once, and when Mayi Jenners married Laurens Pelente, she knew it would be forever. They would spend their lives in a fairy-tale village in the high Pyrenees, the Basque country Mayi readily adopted as her own. When the letter came, she saw her dreams shatter. Laurens didn't want to believe the startling revelation about his American wife, but as head of the Pelente household he could not ignore it. So Mayi set out to win back the love -- and trust -- of her proud husband.
