A ZEBRA SHOUT FRESH NEW ROMANCE
Three very different Latina sisters. Three
dazzling talents with ambition—and passion—to burn. And in this warm-hearted,
sexy new series, three chances to figure out if the path to success can also
lead to lasting love . . . Ad executive Tomás Garcia shouldn't even be thinking
about his daughter’s alluring dance teacher, Yazmine Fernández. Burned by a
shattering divorce, he's laser-focused on his career—and giving his young
daughter, María, the secure home she deserves. Plus, he's certain that with her
talent, Yaz will be leaving Chicago and heading back to Broadway as soon as she
can. But Yaz's generous spirit and caring concern are sparking a desire Tomás
can't resist—and doesn't want to let go . . . For Yaz, good-looking workaholics
like Tomás simply can't be part of her life ever again. She owes it to herself
to get back her confidence and fulfill the dreams her papá could not. She's
glad to spend time with María—and taste the family life she feels she can never
have. And she’s sure that she and Tomás can keep their attraction under control
because there's so much at stake. But each unexpected intimacy, each
self-revelation makes the fire between them grow hotter with every step—and
every risk to their hearts. . .
The author of this
book stated in the beginning that this is her first book. I must say she did a
wonderful job. A story full of joy, sadness, the yearning for love, and for me
the love of a father for his daughter or daughters. Yaz, or Yazmine Fernandez
is the oldest of three daughters. She has been home teaching dance in the same
studio that she grew up dancing now for two years. Two years ago her father was
diagnosed with cancer and it coincided with her plight in New York and she came
home. Her other two sisters were able to stay in school and one thing of the
story is family first. You met Tomas entering her dance studio and she believes
that he is lost. She is with a group that is doing a father, daughter dance for
the Christmas show for the studio. Once he enters you are immediately drawn to
their attraction, but also by the change of a little girl sitting in the corner
Maria. You now has shown more life than Yaz has ever seen running and jumping
for her papi. That heat between the two main characters stay with them
throughout the book and you are given glimpse into each ones defenses that they
have created for themselves to protect them, but are they really. Tomas
believes she is wanting and will leave to go back to New York to dance and does
not want to give into his feelings and impose an ultimatum. The language, and
the culture that are Puerto Rican, reminds me of the times when I first married
into my wife’s Hispanic family over 37 years ago and her Nani’s and Tata’s
house on Christmas morning or any day of celebration. The music, food, people,
laughter, the author captured for me that feeling. The way she treats Rey and
his illness and everything associated with that was does with respect and
class. Having spent time with family members my wife and I going through the
same. The author does everything the Latin way, and yet Tomas is with every
step of the way. A very powerful story that I must say caught me off guard, but
I am so very glad that I read this wonderful book. All of the characters even
when you start to get to the end and you are introduced to Mr. Linton who
“might look like Elmer Fudd, with his short, portly body and balding head.”
Growing up on Saturday morning cartoons I knew exactly her description. This is
just one of many throughout the entire book. A wonderful first book, a
wonderful story. I thank the author for this beautiful story. I got this book
from Netgalley.com I gave it 5 stars.

A ZEBRA SHOUT FRESH NEW ROMANCE
The Fernández sisters have always had big dreams,
and the talent and drive to pursue them. And in this sunny, spicy new series,
each one will discover that success is that much sweeter when love follows . .
. Rosa Fernández doesn’t act on impulse—she’s the responsible one, planning her
career with precision, finally landing a job as the librarian at conservative
Queen of Peace Academy, confining her strongest emotions to her secret poetry
journal. But she’s been harboring a secret crush on dreamy Jeremy Taylor, and
after one dance with him at her sister’s wedding, Rosa longs to let loose for
the first time. She deserves some fun, after all. So what if she doesn’t have a
shot with Jeremy, not with his wealthy pedigree and high profile lifestyle. But
one dance leads to one kiss, and soon Rosa is head-over-heels . . . The adopted
son of a prominent Chicago lawyer, Jeremy has a lot to live up to—especially
with his birth father in prison—the perfect example of a bad example. With a
big promotion and a move to Japan in the works, Jeremy is worlds away from
settling down. But sweet, steady Rosa is a temptation he doesn’t want to deny
himself, at least for now. Yet when their simple fling turns complicated,
everything they’ve both worked for is threatened—except the red-hot intimacy they’ve
found together. Can forever really grow from just-for-now?
