Title: 4 1/2 stars more accurately
Review: I too am a Cuban-American and I loved this book! I couldn't put it down once I got started. After reading this book I felt compelled to do more research on Evangelina to see if the story was indeed based on history, & it is!This book is beautifully written. I could feel the warmth of the island and envision the tropical landscape. I felt I was there. I don't know what book that other Cuban-American was reading, but it couldn't have been this one. This book was NOT boring!I would have given it five stars but I didn't like the way this story ended. I didn't feel this was a romance story and liked the way the author had written the majority of the book not as one. But on the very last couple of pages, she changed the tone of the relationship of the two main characters and it didn't feel necessary or right.
