Biography from Harlequin Romance #2489 The Golden Spaniard
"When one happens to be an unmarried woman of forty-five and apparently fixed for the rest of her working life in a safe and settled job," Rebecca Stratton says of herself, "it is apt to be regarded as bordering on the insane to suddenly give it all up and become a full-time writer."
But that is precisely what British-born and -bred Rebecca did one August day in 1967. Writing had always been her ultimate aim, and she felt that if she didn't make the move right then and there she'd end her days as "one more elderly lady sighing for what might have been."
When Rebecca Stratton's first attempt at a romance novel was accepted, she didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. So she did both. Then she celebrated with friends and relatives. And then sat down to the job of writing more books - and reveled in it!

Jenny is surprised that her grandfather left her a half share of a business in Spain, where she has some family. The hero Antonio had expected to win the entire business. Soon after Jenny comes to Spain Antonio insists that he’s going to marry her. For obvious reasons, we all know that the business was the bait.Jenny is very aware of this and for most of the book she’s keeps her guard up. Jenny and Antonio marry in the end. he claims he loves her. I wasn’t convinced. He was a master manipulator.
