CW: sexual assault, parent loss

Gabby Medina has just lost her mother and lost her job. At her mother's memorial, her biological father, who she hasn't ever met, shows up and offers her a house that she can fix up and sell as a gift. With no other offers, Gabby takes this opportunity to move to Sonrisa, NM where she meets Diego Paz, the local handyman and mayor of the town. Will Gabby open up her heart to new family and love?

I relate heavily to Gabby having also lost my father a couple years ago. The grief she feels is so real. The plot was a bit predictable, but I really liked learning about the adelitas who were real historical figures. I think it's really awesome to learn about other cultures.

I would recommend this book to people who like women's fiction.
