Puerto Rican girls are brought up to want one thing: true love. Yet they are raised by women whose lives are marked by broken promises, grief, and betrayal. While some believe that they'll be the ones to finally make it work, others swear not to repeat cycles of violence. This collection documents how these "love wars" break out across generations as individuals find themselves caught in the crosshairs of romance, expectations, and community.
"A tough smart dazzling debut by a tough smart dazzling writer. Ivelisse Rodriguez is a revelation." -Junot Díaz, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of This Is How You Lose Her
"[An] exceptional collection of short stories... Filled with memorable characters and sharp writing, this book will leave you breathless." -Bustle
"Rodriguez conceives exquisite misery and makes alchemy of hopelessness in her debut short story collection." -Electric Literature
"[A] perceptive exploration of love, heartbreak, and womanhood." -The Seattle Review of Books
"This reviewer kept returning to [these stories] for their freshness, urgency, and sheer heart." -Library Journal
"Throughout the collection, Rodriguez's prose pulls you in, and her characters will stay with you even when the stories are only a few pages long." -BUST
"Both heartbreaking and insightful." -Publishers Weekly
"Stunning." -MyDomaine
