Susan uproots her entire life and moves to Mexico. During her span of being a teacher, never did she think she would fall for a student. What's that old saying, "you can't help who you love?" Losing a never ending battle with her emotions, she gives Carlos a chance, forming a bond that will help her make it through all the good and the bad that is to come.
To me, this is a coming of age story in so many ways. From being the daughter of a NBA Coach, to adjusting to a new lifestyle, another country, a job and juggling love, Susan does an excellent job of portraying her life in a way that hooks you from the very beginning. Page after page I found myself going through emotions I never new a book could spark in me!
I would recommend this book to anyone who loves romance, memoirs and all around good reads!… (more)
