Summary:
"Every year, summer begins when the Callahans arrive on Mariposa Island. That's when Elena Finney gets to escape her unstable, controlling mother by babysitting for the Callahans' two children. And the summer of 1986 promises to be extra special when she meets J.C., the new boy in town whose kisses make Elena feel like she's been transported to a new world. Joaquin Finney can't imagine why anyone would want to come to Mariposa Island. He just graduated from high school and dreams about going to California to find his father and escape his mother's manipulation and abuse. Caridad has never heard of Mariposa Island. A teenager living in Havana, Cuba, in 1957, she is mostly consumed with thoughts of her quinceanera. But when Castro's revolution comes to her doorstep, her journey spanning countries and decades is the one which ties all three stories together." --jacket flap.
