Selina’s world becomes confused and uncertain after the death of her mother, Elena Trujillo. Not only has she lost the most important person in her life, but she has also lost her past. As she deals with her grief, Selina begins a journey into her mother’s past and uncovers more than she anticipates, discovering a darker secret that not only affected Elena’s life to the very end, but is now controlling Selina’s and her search for true love and self-discovery. Selina must reflect on her past before she can begin creating her future, and thus a story of family love becomes one of self-worth, love and hope. Patricia Canche has written a work of fiction that approaches the emotions of one young woman’s struggle to find herself and create a future, while surviving loss, grief and acceptance of the past.
