Summary (From Goodreads):

Soledad Barnes has her life all planned out. Because, of course, she does. She plans everything. She designs everything. She fixes everything. She’s a domestic goddess who’s never met a party she couldn’t host or a charge she couldn’t lead. The one with all the answers and the perfect vinaigrette for that summer salad. But none of her varied talents can save her when catastrophe strikes, and the life she built with the man who was supposed to be her forever, goes poof in a cloud of betrayal and disillusion.

But there is no time to pout or sulk, or even grieve the life she lost. She’s too busy keeping a roof over her daughters’ heads and food on the table. And in the process of saving them all, Soledad rediscovers herself. From the ashes of a life burned to the ground, something bold and new can rise.

But then an unlikely man enters the picture—the forbidden one, the one she shouldn’t want but can’t seem to resist. She’s lost it all before and refuses to repeat her mistakes. Can she trust him? Can she trust herself?

After all she’s lost . . .and found . . .can she be brave enough to make room for what could be?

This book was full of drama and I kinda felt like I was watching reality TV in a good way. I was fully engaged in this story and really enjoyed it. Sol must pivot from being a stay at home mom to full time provider when her life and marriage fall apart. I appreciated the hard work Sol put into taking care of her daughters. The romance was fun and spicy but took a backseat to the rest of the plot. I also liked Judah and how kind and caring he was! I definitely recommend this one!
