==Book Description==
===Blurb 1===
'''''[http://www.fictiondb.com/author/violet-winspear~the-valdez-marriage~39593~b.htm From fictiondb.com:}'''''

"You will stay and marry my brother." Julio Valdez spoke contemptuously. "Because of you, my brother, Ramon, is now a paralyzed cripple, with very little to live for. But he wants you, so he shall have you."

Julio's hard, unyielding expression warned Darcy Beaudine it was useless to argue. He was determined to tie her to a man she didn't love, in a marriage that could never be consummated.

She would be forced to spend the rest of her life at Julio's Spanish estate--devoting herself to Ramon, but loving Julio!

===Blurb 2===
'''''From the back cover of [[Mills and Boon Best Seller Romance|Mills & Boon Best Seller Romance]] [[Mills and Boon Best Seller Romance By The Numbers|#502]], November 1984, UK Edition:'''''

It wasn't Darcy' fault that Ramon Valdez would have to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair; the accident had happened because he was concentrating on her rather than his driving. Nevertheless when Ramon's older brother Julio asked Darcy to go to their home in Andalusia to visit him, she felt it was the least she could do. But to her dismay, she arrived there to discover that Julio held her wholly responsible for his brother's condition and was insisting that she should marry Ramon. How could Darcy possibly go through with the marriage, knowing that she had never loved Ramon and that all too soon she had fallen in love with his brother?
