Review: Engaging Coming of Age Romance
Rating: 4 out of 5

This one was an impulse buy and it worked well. I was intrigued by several things- coming of age story, virgin lover, interracial, opposites, and so forth.  I found Jose's background growing up as a migrant worker and getting a scholarship to an Ivy League school just too fascinating to pass up. That is as much of the story as the fledgling romance.  I enjoyed the realism of the two characters.  They have their flaws and make their mistakes.  They're relationship was even realistic.  Only issue was abrupt ending.
