Herrera (Here to Stay) launches her Sambrano Studios series with this fun if rushed second-chance romance set in New York’s competitive entertainment industry. At 30, Esmeralda Sambrano-Peña inherits Sambrano Studios, her estranged father’s billion-dollar TV empire, much to the chagrin of the company’s board and her scheming stepmother and half-siblings, who view Esmeralda as illegitimate and battle her every step of the way. To make matters worse, the devilishly handsome and ruthlessly ambitious Rodrigo Almanzar, Esmeralda’s ex and her father’s protégé, is also vying for the CEO position. The company board gives Esmeralda one week to prove herself by creating a five-year strategic plan for the studio, a task that forces her to work with Rodrigo. The burning attraction the pair still feels after 10 years apart blurs the lines between business and pleasure, giving way to steamy love scenes. And when a secret from Rodrigo’s past comes to light, Esmeralda re-evaluates both their breakup and what their relationship could be. With juicy family drama and scandals straight out of a telenovela, the plot is jam-packed, over-the-top, and always entertaining. Herrera’s fans are sure to be hooked. Agent: Taylor Haggerty, Root Literary. -

Esmeralda Sambrano-Pe�a would be a fool not to take advantage of the opportunity fate has just given her. If Esme can come up with a board-approved new business plan for the television empire of her late, estranged father, Patricio Sambrano, she will become the company's new CEO. But she faces some serious competition for the corner suite office in the person of Rodrigo Almanzar, the man who dumped her ten years ago and since then has spent his every waking moment working for and ingratiating himself with Esme's father. Herrera (Here to Stay, 2020) launches her new Sambrano Studios series with another superbly crafted contemporary romance that has all the juicy family drama, intriguing corporate power dynamics, and off-the-charts sensuality of an irresistible telenovela, and which delivers a beautifully executed story that joyfully embraces the rich diversity of Latinx culture.COPYRIGHT(2021) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
