Moderne kærlighedshistorier

Syv døtre. Syv hemmeligheder. Syv kærlighedshistorier. En storslået og medrivende krønike af bestsellerforfatter Soraya Lane om syv døtre, hvis historier på fængende vis bindes sammen over otte bøger. Claudia kan ikke tro det. Hendes bedstemor blev født på et mødrehjem og siden i al hemmelighed bortadopteret. Intet af det, hun hele livet har troet, hun vidste om sin familie, er sandt. Ingen synes at vide noget om bedstemorens biologiske familie, og de eneste spor, som blev efterladt på mødrehjemmet, er en skitse af et våbenskjold og et visitkort. Begge dele peger på mystisk vis mod Cuba, og Claudia beslutter sig impulsivt for at efterforske sagen for at afdække sine rødder. Kort efter befinder Claudia sig på magiske Cuba, hvor våbenskjoldet peger hende i retning af den sagnomspundne, styrtende rige Diaz-familie. Mateo, en lokal kok, hjælper hende med at finde flere spor, og Claudia får snart færten af en ufattelig historie om den såkaldte Sukkerkonges yndlingsdatter Esmeralda Diaz. En kvinde så smuk, at alle stirrede, når hun trådte ind i lokalet. Men er den glamourøse Diaz-familie virkelig forbundet til Claudias bedstemor? I mellemtiden blomstrer følelserne mellem Claudia og Mateo, men det skal snart vise sig, at det ikke kun er i fortiden, at der er hemmeligheder begravet. DEN CUBANSKE DATTER er anden bog i serien om de forsvundne døtre. Bøgerne er selvstændige fortællinger og kan læses både enkeltvis og i sammenhæng.
