The past hurts and current medical issues of the hero add another dynamic to the plot that brings the story full circle. Although a bit predictable and overuse of the reference that Maricel has to return to the States, it’s a wonderful cultural read that discusses delicate family matters with taste and dignity. Food, wine and music with dancing are an added bonus. Readers will be booking vacations to visit Puerto Rico!
