Nobody has more audacity than a mediocre white man, and Soledad learns that the hard way after Edward’s multiple betrayals surface. She soon discovers that no matter how heavy you think your baggage is, the right people will be more than willing to help you carry the load. Her slow burn connection with Judah and their paralleled devotion to their respective kids (Lupe, Inez, Lottie; Aaron, Adam) were the highlights of the book. This became a love story not only about finding yourself and becoming your own knight in shining armor but representation of friendship as a community.
