Alone in Boca Raton

Only days later, however, matters get complicated for Mario; his mother, Gloria, unexpectedly flees from Mexico illegally, going to New Mexico with her two young children, Anita and Roberto, to escape her husband, Mario's stepfather, Jos. Mario eventually brings his undocumented family to Florida and hides them in a place close to his. But it's only a matter of time until things go wrong. Soon Mario finds himself dealing with a drug connection, a shady deal with a Mexican contractor, a crooked lawyer, and the possible deportation of his family-all while a romance begins to blossom between him and Jenny, Erin's daughter.

In this novel, only time will tell if Mario will be able to reunite his family and shore up the life he had begun to build for himself in Florida.
