Tatiana thought she had her life figured out - finish college and make her family proud, even if the path she was on did not feel like her own.
She was one step away from graduating when she decided to put everything on hold when a phone call shatters everything she believed, she is drawn back to Rocca Palma, where old lies wait to surface. What she finds is not the life she grew up hearing about, but a truth her family never meant her to see.
Determined to find answers, Tatiana crosses paths with Dondon, a small-town delinquent who has his own reasons for keeping people at arm's length.
As the secrets of Vista Paloma come to light in a town where loyalty is currency and every truth comes at a price, trust becomes a risk neither of them can afford - and some fears are harder to outrun than the fear of falling in love.
