"Stories that] illuminate the lives behind the current debates about Latino immigration." --The New York Times Book Review When fifteen-year-old Maribel Rivera sustains a terrible injury, the Riveras leave behind a comfortable life in Mexico and risk everything to come to the United States so that Maribel can have the care she needs. Once they arrive, it's not long before Maribel attracts the attention of Mayor Toro, the son of one of their new neighbors, who sees a kindred spirit in this beautiful, damaged outsider. Their love story sets in motion events that will have profound repercussions for everyone involved. Here Henr quez seamlessly interweaves the story of these star-crossed lovers, and of the Rivera and Toro families, with the testimonials of men and women who have come to the United States from all over Latin America.

It Works!
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
My favorite sunscreen.
Smells incredible. Reminds me of the beach every time I use it. Which is daily. Summers are brutal in the south and I don’t get paid enough for a farmers tan.
Alba has saved me. I’m hooked on it.
Also the price isn’t horrible either. Sunscreen can be so dang expensive. You get your moneys worth.

Defective item
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
I requested a refund or replacement as one of the two bottles that arrived. Has an issue with spraying. When I put it in the unlocked position, it does not spray I requested from the seller, but the seller wants to meet to provide proof and requesting me to upload a video. When I explained the defect, they told me to move it to unlocked position. I buy this sunscreen all the time for my kids so I’m aware of how to lock and unlock a sunscreen Unfortunately through buyer/seller messaging you’re unable to leave a video so I will unfortunately have to leave a review here. I hope the seller will resolve this defective item.

Great after sun
This is one of the best aftersun lotions I've found. (And I grew up in FL so I've tried many!) I first discovered this lotion while on vacation on Sanibel Island - when I needed something to soothe my sun-kissed shoulders. It is super moisturizing, yet soaks in quickly. Isn't at all greasy, and leaves my skin feeling so nourished. I have even used it after getting burnt and have noticed considerably less peeling when I've used this immediately and consistently. IMO, the smell is a little strong - but it's a nice topical coconut smell - so not at all offensive. (I don't use a lot of scented stuff and therefore tend to be a little
sensitive to smells - so keep that in consideration)

It really works!
Just buy it!!! Well worth the money, since it does exactly what it says it does. The smell is heavenly and nothing else keeps my skin this soft. Beach days are about over and my tan is still glowing, from regular use. Highly recommend.
