Lourdes Thomé’s novel follows Cristine’s journey from bullying victim and violence survivor to winner in the US, in a dramatic tale of pain, love, and personal growth.
The book delves into life’s inexplicable whys. Cristine endures school prejudice for her aesthetic condition and academic focus, facing constant mockery. These scars persist into adulthood.
From Bullying to a New Life in the US
After an arranged marriage and unwanted pregnancy from assault at graduation, she moves to the United States at her family’s urging. There, she finds career chances and forbidden romances.
With a soap-opera pace, it mirrors real struggles. Cristine redefines her experiences, rebuilds family bonds, and navigates deeply human emotions.
If tomorrow scares you, just live today. Let fate take its course. Coincidences don’t exist.
Characters like Raphael, her long-absent husband, and Malu, their daughter, deepen the family drama. They work to mend ties strained by time and distance.
