This is a Perez family sequel to Next Year In Havana. This book follows Beatriz and her life as a revolutionary and spy.

I got irritated with all her pining for Cuba. Luckily, it was in the beginning and tapered off. I found myself looking forward to the romantic scenes with her and Nick. The love story sucked me in and it was hotter because it was scandalous and taboo for the time.

The ending brought it full circle back to the first book. I'd have to look at it, but I think Next Year In Havana ended at the birthday party? I feel like it did, I'm just not 100% sure haha.
