An NPR Best Book of 2022 and “Books We Love” Pick

A PopSugar and BookBub Most Anticipated Romance of 2022!

When fate and tacos bring Ramón and Julieta together on the Day of the Dead, the star-crossed pair must make a choice: accept the bitter food rivalry that drives them apart or surrender to a love that consumes them—perfect for fans of Jane the Virgin!


Ramón Montez always achieves his goals. Whether that means collecting Ivy League degrees or growing his father’s fast-food empire, nothing sets Ramón off course. So when the sexy señorita who kissed him on the Day of the Dead runs off into the night with his heart, he determines to do whatever it takes to find her again. 
 
Celebrity chef Julieta Campos has sacrificed everything to save her sea-to-table taqueria from closing. To her horror, she discovers that her new landlord is none other than the magnetic mariachi she hooked up with on Dia de los Muertos. Even worse, it was his father who stole her mother’s taco recipe decades ago. Julieta has no choice but to work with Ramón, the man who destroyed her life’s work—and the one man who tempts and inspires her. 
 
As San Diego’s outraged community protests against the Taco King takeover and the divide between their families grows, Ramón and Julieta struggle to balance the rising tensions. But Ramón knows that true love is priceless and despite all of his successes, this is the one battle he refuses to lose.

Loved it and want more of these

I enjoyed the story from beginning to end. It was intriguing and a good balance of everything I enjoy in a book. Plus I enjoyed the Hispanic culture and relatable scenarios. Please give us more of these Alana

Enjoyed the way it was written.

Beautifully written. Loved the story, including information regarding traditional Mexican holidays and how they are celebrated. Now that I’m retired, I plan to read as many of Alana’s books as possible!! I enjoy her writing!! 👍🏼

Very cool story that centers on Barrio Logan in San Diego

The author lives in San Diego and has California roots which are very clear in the story. We meet the weary businessman who is the responsible older brother right in the first chapter. His younger brothers are excited about the Day of the Dead and dressed up. He isn’t planning on going until his dad pushes him, so he dusts off his old outfit and goes. Then we meet Julieta, whose mom isn’t in the same kind of privileged position that Ramon’s dad is. We get to see the witty banter between Julieta and Ramon very early on. The moment when Julieta called Ramon out clearly after they’d spent time together broke my heart. When Ramon did the right thing, I was so happy. The story ended in a place that made me eager to read more set in this world.
