(2) YA Nina's Mami sends her from the Dominican Republic to join her brother Darrio in New York, imagining she'll snag a wealthy husband. Unfortunately, Darrio's reality is nothing like Mami's dreams. With the help of some clear-sighted new friends, Nina weathers the truth about her beloved brother and their demanding mother. This is an absorbing picture of a young woman navigating a challenging new environment.
