“Cerón’s beautiful tale is a reminder that life lessons often come from outside of schools, books, or snapshots.”—Booklist, starred review

Lola Espinoza is cursed.

Well, maybe not actually cursed—magic isn’t real . . . is it?

When Lola goes to spend the summer in Mexico City with her grandmother and meets handsome, flirtatious Rio, she learns a secret that has created a rift in her family for decades. Against her better judgement, Lola enlists her new coworker Javi—Rio’s surly friend whom Lola is pretty sure hates her—to be her guide as she learns the ropes at her cousin’s restaurant and travels the city looking for more information about the curse.

Over the course of one unforgettable summer—filled with food, family, and two very different boys—Lola finds herself learning about love, belonging, and the magic around us all.
