A captivating and deeply emotional women's fiction multigenerational tale that delves into the unwavering resilience of three Cuban American women and the profound sacrifices they have made for their families. Jessica Russo, lacking any knowledge about her mother's family or Cuban culture, has always been met with silence whenever she attempted to inquire about it. However, when her estranged Cuban grandmother, whom she has never met, sends her trusted aide, Luis, to offer Jessica the opportunity to visit Miami and reconnect with her family, she finds herself unable to resist, despite the inevitable pain it would bring to her mother.
The woman Jessica encounters is vastly different from what she had anticipated. Her grandmother, a successful, intelligent, and determined individual, readily accepts responsibility for the circumstances that led to the estrangement and is determined to rectify the situation. As Jessica spends time with her grandmother in her picturesque island home, she unravels the rich history of her family and uncovers the underlying factors that caused the rift between her mother and grandmother. Over the course of weeks spent together, Jessica becomes steadfast in her quest to mend the fractured family.
In the end, Jessica's journey not only brings her closer to her family but also allows her to discover profound insights about herself and the importance of embracing her diverse identity. This emotionally charged story serves as a testament to the strength and resilience of women, and their unwavering commitment to preserving their families, no matter the cost.
