Plot
Elena Lafé is a young, beautiful, and talented horse rider. She and her widowed father, Tomás, manage a small but excellent hotel on the Key West ocean shore. Raised in her father’s shadow and kept away from the maternal side of her family, Elena has never known true love. That is until she finds Eduardo Girón, a widower, unconscious in the middle of the forest. She takes him to her father's hotel and falls hopelessly in love with Eduardo as she nurses him back to health.The rich, young businessman reciprocates her love and they marry in an impromptu ceremony on the beach. Elena Lafé and her best friend Laura move into Eduardo’s mansion, where he lives with several family members and household staff. The new bride is not given the warmest of welcomes by Eduardo's relatives. Her unease turns to terror when she keeps hearing screams and moans from the mansion’s tower.
Elena Lafé sees a photograph of Eduardo’s deceased wife, also named Elena. Elena Lafé learns from Corina about the relationship Eduardo had with Elena Calcaño, who committed suicide. Elena Calcaño had a twin sister, Daniela, who went mad after Elena Calcaño's death. Elena Lafé also discovers that her husband and his brothers belong to a mythical race that hides many secrets and conspiracies.
Elena Lafé will have to confront a vengeful ghost, a spellcasting witch, Eduardo’s strange half brother, a deranged twin sister bent on killing her, and hundreds of secrets that will change her life forever. The twists and turns of the oceanfront locale mirror a storyline intertwined with secret loves, unusual characters, and a mysterious aura. A web of mystery and chance is spun until we discover the secret behind Elena’s Ghost.
