[Read by Roxanne Hernandez] With warmth, wit, and insight, award-winning author Anjanette Delgado explores one woman's flawed but heartfelt attempt to live and love well, transporting listeners to the center of contemporary Little Havana and a community of uniquely human, unforgettable characters. Two divorces have taught Mariela Estevez that she's better suited to being a mistress than a wife. Whose heart needs all that ''forever after'' trouble? Still, her affair with her married lover, Hector, has become problematic - especially because he's also a tenant in her apartment building in the heart of Miami's Calle Ocho in Little Havana. But when Hector is found dead just steps from Mariela's back door, on the eve of her fortieth birthday, she's forced to examine her life - and come up with a plan to save it, fast.
