    <![CDATA[All Ana Ruiz wanted was to have a traditional quinceañera for her daughter, Carmen. She thought it would be a nice way to mark this special time in her daughter's life. But Carmen still blamed Ana for her father Esteban's departure, as did everyone else. A good man is hard to find, especially at your age they told her. Why make a big deal about one little indiscretion? Carmen still saw her father as a superhero, and despite everything, Ana didn't want to ruin that for her. In the end, it's Esteban himself who ruins Carmen's image of him, when she catches him with his new pregnant girlfriend. And Ana discovers that if she's going to teach Carmen anything about what it means to be a woman, it will take more than simply a fancy party to do it....]]>

    <body><![CDATA[It's all about mothers and daughters in Acosta's debut novel. Misunderstandings, harsh words, and mega drama are on tap here, but in the end it is all about the LOVE. This book was funny without being corny, sexy without being raunchy. Great suggestions for music, food, art and even unique names.
