When desire ignites in a place where secrets can't stay buried…
★★★★★ "A slow burn done right. Forbidden love, powerful attraction, and a heroine reclaiming her life in the most beautiful way."
Before the contract.
Before the vows.
Before love becomes a battlefield.
Award-winning author Mollie Mathews introduces the world of Love in Panama with this atmospheric, emotionally charged prequel, where desire sparks long before fate seals its terms.
High in the misty hills of Boquete, Panama—where emerald coffee plantations cling to volcanic slopes and secrets run as deep as the roots in fertile soil—one woman's inheritance sets everything in motion.
Forty-four-year-old illustrator Mary-Anne Calder comes to Panama to settle her grandmother's estate. She does not expect the land to claim her… or for a man to challenge everything she thought she knew about power, legacy, and herself.
Drawn to a remote coffee plantation steeped in history and rivalry, she collides with Rafael Alvarez—emerald tycoon, billionaire hotelier, and a man whose presence is as intoxicating and dangerous as the land he protects. Commanding, enigmatic, and fiercely guarded, Rafael is everything Mary-Anne knows she should avoid—and everything her heart recognises.
As heat builds beneath tropical skies, unspoken truths surface. Old loyalties strain. Family wounds reopen. And the land at the centre of it all begins to reveal just how much it demands in return.
This is not the full love story—yet.
This is the moment desire awakens.
The moment lines are crossed.
The moment everything becomes inevitable.
Love in Panama: The Prequel is a lush, immersive introduction to a world of legacy, power, and slow-burn attraction—perfect for readers who crave escapism, emotional tension, and irresistible alpha heroes with hidden depths.
The story continues in Love in Panama.
