Overview
From the author of A Taste of Sage comes another charming and engrossing novel in which a young woman must navigate her familyās expectations, the demands of her job, a new love, and a secret about her magical identity.
Larimar CintrĆ³n works hard at three things: her job as brand manager for Beacon CafĆ©, a New York based corporate bakery chain; taking care of her parents and her abuela; and hiding that sheās a ciguapaāa mythical creature of Dominican folklore with long, straight hair and backwards-facing feet. Larimar may only be a ciguapa on full moons, but she feels like an outsider in her family the rest of the month too. Her love of ā90s punk rock music and style further sets her apart. But when her best friend introduces her to Ray, a bakery owner and fellow punk rock lover, Larimar thinks she may have finally found someone with whom she can be her true self.
As Beaconās brand manager, Larimar oversees all new location openings, including its newest store in New Jersey, which could be the project that finally lands her a coveted promotion. But when she discovers the location is right across from Rayās bakery, Borrachitos, Larimar is torn between impressing her boss and saving Rayās business.
As Larimar continues to grow closer to Ray and the new storeās opening looms, she struggles to hide the truth about herself and her job. But embracing her magical nature may be the only way Larimar can have everything she wants. Witty and poignant, A Touch of Moonlight is a celebration of heritage, culture, and identityāof embracing yourself and finding your place in the world.
