¿Lo arriesgarías todo por un amor perdido?Babia tiene diecisiete años, una guitarra, un gato que se llama Mousse de chocolate y unos cuantos kilos de más que el resto del mundo se empeña en recordarle. El verano toma un giro inesperado cuando Daniel Creek regresa a su vida, justo en el momento en el que ella acaba de aceptar ser la acompañante y casamentera de su prima Helena para ganar un dinero extra. Pese a las advertencias de su tía Gloria, Babia decide que solamente tendrá que pasar dos meses más aparentando y después no volverá a verles. Un inesperado giro de los acontecimientos hace que Babia, Helena y Daniel terminen trabajando en el mismo sitio durante todo el verano. Y esto hará que la amistad de Babia y Daniel cuando eran pequeños resurja y con ella todos los sentimientos que Babia trataba de esconder fingiendo que no le echaba de menos. ¿Es capaz un beso de despertar todos los recuerdos que viven en nuestros corazones?
«La primera novela de Dani Ojeda no te dejará indiferente. Una entrañable historia, repleta de ingredientes de todo tipo, que terminarás con un sabor de boca inmejorable. Me ha sorprendido muchísimo. A ti también te pasará. Créeme.»Blue Jeans, autor de El club de los incomprendidos

July 1, 2016
Gr 10 Up-Babia has lived with her aunt Gloria ever since her parents' deaths in a fire. Babia is often teased for being overweight, but she loves her life and is happy with her aunt and cat, Mousse de chocolate. When her rich aunt Claudia and Claudia's daughter Helena come to visit, Babia is surprised at Claudia's offer: spend the summer accompanying and becoming friends with Helena, and Babia will receive 2,000 euros. While at first offended at Claudia's remarks that Babia's less than beautiful appearance will serve to enhance her daughter's-and in turn help Helena find a husband-the protagonist quickly realizes that it is an easy way to make money, and agrees. But when an old friend of Babia's, Daniel Creek, returns for the summer, her life and heart become entangled with his once more. Flashbacks provide insight into the teen's past, her friendship with Daniel, and her life with her aunt. As the summer progresses and Babia is forced to spend time with Helena and Daniel, she learns that not everything is as it seems, and experiences love (both emotionally and physically). Witty and clever, the Spanish text flows perfectly. Readers will find themselves laughing at and enjoying the humor and development of the characters, especially Babia, and appreciating the confidence she has in herself from the start. Pair with Julie Murphy's Dumplin'. VERDICT Recommended for libraries serving Spanish-speaking teens and adults.-Selenia Paz, Helen Hall Library, League City, TX
