He's harboring a costly secret that distracts him from everything else. His wife, Keila, desperate for a life with a little more intimacy and a little less Weather Channel, feels she has no choice but to end their marriage. Their three daughters--Claudia, a television chef with a hard-hearted attitude; Olivia, a successful architect who suffers from gentrification guilt; and Patricia, a social media wizard who has an uncanny knack for connecting with audiences but not with her lovers--are blindsided and left questioning everything they know. Each will have to take a critical look at her own relationships and make some tough decisions along the way. With quick-wit and humor, Maria Amparo EscandoÌn follows the Alvarado family as they wrestle with impending evacuations, secrets, deception, and betrayal, and their toughest decision yet: whether to stick together or burn it all down"-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a January -- February -- March -- April -- May -- June -- July -- August -- September -- October -- November -- December. 650 0 $a Mexican Americans $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Families $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Rich people $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Secrecy $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Sisters $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Parent and adult child $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Weather $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Droughts $z California $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Life change events $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Mexican American families $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Los Angeles (Calif.) $v Fiction. 651 0 $a California $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Large type books. 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 3 945 $a lpt 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20220202010411.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20220104010953.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20211216010024.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CD9DF38A5E3D11EC8A67FCCD29ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
