A young woman of Spanish descent, Zaira Soleil moves to Los Angeles at the end of May, determined to achieve her dream and secure a better future for her younger sister. Raised in a family that always denied them opportunities, Zaira is ready to do whatever it takes to change their fate.
However, Los Angeles turns out to be a city full of contrasts. Exclusive parties, glittering clubs, the shadows of the local mafia, and the fast-paced lifestyle overwhelm her, but Zaira remains undeterred. She is determined to stay true to her goals, no matter what.
A series of bizarre encounters leads her to meet Michael Kenneth, the eldest son of one of the city's most influential and controversial families. Michael is accustomed to a life of excess: vices, wild parties, illegal street racing, and luxury shopping. His existence is far from Zaira's dreams.
At first, there's an immediate clash between the two. Zaira sees everything she despises in Michael: superficiality, arrogance, and resignation to a predetermined fate. Michael, on the other hand, is irritated by Zaira's determined attitude and stubbornness, which seems immune to the allure of his gilded world.
However, the scorching Californian sun and nights under the stars allow them to lower their defenses. Their relationship develops under the blazing summer sun, marked by revealed secrets and hard-won trust. But summer is short, and with it, their bond might fade. As the season draws to a close, Zaira and Michael face a choice: let the summer take their memories away or fight to keep them alive. The answer will come with the last gentle summer breeze, the final thin line of sunset.
Are you ready to fall in love with them and live every moment until the last evening?
"Why, Michy, does your pretty mouth only move to insult me?"
"Why, Ira, would you rather it be busy doing something else to you?"
"Careful, little Ira."
