Be the first ever to hear the thought-provoking new novel from Melissa de la Cruz, the #1 New York Times bestselling writer of The Isle from the Dropped and Return to the Isle of the Dropped.

She had her very existence planned.

She knew who she was and where she was going.

Before truth transformed everything.

Jasmine de los Santos has generally completed what’s expected of her. She’s examined hard, produced her Filipino immigrant parents proud and is preparing to enjoy the rewards by means of a full college scholarship or grant to about Something in Between the institution of her dreams.

And then everything shatters. Her parents are compelled to reveal the truth: their visas expired years ago. Her entire family members is illegal. Which means no scholarships, probably no college at all and the very real threat of deportation.

As she’s trying to make feeling of who she actually is with this new actuality, her globe is turned ugly again by Royce Blakely. He’s funny, nurturing, and spontaneous – fundamentally everything she’s been searching for on the worst possible time, and now he’s another thing she may drop.

Jasmine will minimize at nothing to protect her relationships, family and future, all while determining what it means to be an immigrant in the current society.
