For fans of Karla Cornejo Villavicencio and Tita Ramirez, a contemporary women's fiction novel about a driven Latina woman navigating career, immigration struggles, and unexpected romance in vibrant Miami. When Sofia loses her coveted job, her American dream is on the line. With her U.S. work visa hanging by a thread, a job interview at a top Miami marketing firm is her last shot at staying in the country. But as she navigates the high-stakes competition, she finds herself irresistibly drawn to her chief rival for the position - charming and ambitious Esteban. Esteban embodies the glamorous Miami lifestyle Sofia has always admired, and he's unbothered by their rivalry. But for Sofia, everything is at stake. She can't bring herself to tell him how much this job means to her, nor that her future depends on securing it. With her visa expiring, mounting family pressures, and bills piling up, Sofia faces an impossible choice: win the job, or risk returning to a life she fought so hard to leave behind. Can Sofia claim the career - and the love - she longs for, or will her dreams slip through her fingers just as they're within reach?
