On the morning Letty Espinosa sets out from San Francisco for the Mexican border, her two children - fifteen-year-old Alex and six-year-old Luna - wake up alone in their little apartment on a forgotten spit of wetlands near the bay. For fourteen years, it was their grandmother who raised them while Letty worked three jobs. But now, her parents have returned to Mexico, and she doesn't have a choice: she has to step up and become a mother.
Alone and uncertain, Letty struggles to get her bearings. With Luna missing her grandparents desperately, and Alex - who is falling in love for the first time - unwilling to give her a chance, it seems impossible that she'll be able to put her family back together. But then she comes up with a plan that just might help them escape the heartbreaking injustices of the place they've always called home - until one wrong move jeopardizes everything she's worked for, threatening those they love and calling into question all their fragile hopes for the future.
Deeply moving and gorgeously written, this hugely anticipated novel by the bestselling author of The Language of Flowers is about love, inequality, and what it means to be a family.

The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh is a moving story of hope and forgiveness, and an international bestseller.
The Victorians used flowers to express emotions: honeysuckle for devotion, azaleas for passion, and red roses for love. For Victoria Jones, flowers and their meanings are her only connection to the world - although for her, they are most useful in expressing feelings such as grief, mistrust and solitude.
After a childhood in the foster care system, Victoria - now eighteen - has nowhere to go, and sleeps in a public park, where she plants a small garden of her own. When her talent is discovered by a local florist, she discovers her gift for helping others through the flowers she chooses for them. But it takes a meeting with a mysterious vendor at the flower market for her to realize what's been missing in her own life. As she starts to fall for him, though, she must confront a painful secret from her past - and decide whether it's worth risking everything for a second chance at happiness.
