MEET LYDIA
SAN ANDRES
Lydia is
a Dominicana who lives and writes in the tropics, where she can be found
reading and making excuses to stay out of the heat. Visit her at www.lydiasanandres.com.
ARROYO
BLANCO AND CIUDAD REAL
Don’t let
other people decide who you are.
In her novels, each of the protagonists
struggles to define her own identity and desires, and reconcile that with
what’s expected of them as women in 1911, as members of their respective
families and as people who hold particular places in society. It won’t be easy, but each heroine will find
a way to live their lives – and find love! – on their own terms.
The
Arroyo Blanco and Ciudad Real series are historical romances set in a fictional
island in the Spanish Caribbean, neighbor to Puerto Rico, Cuba and the
Dominican Republic. It shares those islands’ Hispanic heritage, as well as some
of their customs.
Lydia’s
latest is THE INFAMOUS MISS RODRIGUEZ, a Ciudad Real novella. In it Graciela Rodriguez is determined to break
her engagement to the city’s most eligible bachelor, even if it means ruining
her reputation. Vicente Aguirre has been
hired by her aunt to keep her wayward niece from damaging the family name along
with her future. When her charms prove
irresistible, will he too fall under her spell?
The
Latina Book Club wishes you a Happy Valentine’s and Galentine’s Day and many
hours of joyful reading.
