"Alone in a hotel room in sultry Miammi, sheets covering her quivering body, Marisol, the protagonist of this riveting book, weeps for her lost love. The scene will pierce the heart of every woman I know. For Marisol is us: defiant, romantic and, ultimately, our only true saviors." -- Mirta Ojito, author of Finding Mañana
