The first time I saw a blurb about this book my interest was piqued. It screamed angst. What I didn't know was that it would become so much more than that. This is a story about redemption, overcoming obstacles, hardships, destiny, and finding love. The family connections were amazing. They weren't perfect, they fought, the had numerous differences, and they loved fiercely but at the end of the day, they were still family. Every character needs to have their story told. EVERY. ONE.
This story hit home for me, especially in light of current events in the world. The life that Vincente, Emilio, Adrain, Yo, and Lily endured broke my heart but their perseverance to have a better life inspired me. Sweet Dani, inspired me in her resilience and her forgiving heart. She hadn't lived an easy life. Yet she lived up to her name. She wasn't a weed to be discarded but was, in fact, someone who showed that wishes do come true. In the case of Vincente and Dani, they showed that hope and remaining steadfast to one's dreams can and does pay off.
I wasn't expecting that this book would knock me on my behind the way that it did. I just recently discovered this author. I appreciated her passion in the first book I read by her but there was definitely a lot of room to grow. That is by no means meant as a disparaging remark since I can in no way do what she does. There is a reason that I am a reader, not a writer. It just means that there was a lot of room to grow. And let me tell you, grow she did. It doesn't even seem like she is the same author. I look forward to watching her grow in her abilities as an author. Bravo, to this author for creating this fantastic story. I cannot way to read more from this series.… (plus d'informations)
