Don't Date Rosa Santos

Bursting with winsome charm, this audiobook whisks listeners to the cozy coastal community of Port Coral, Florida, where Cuban-American Rosa Santos lives with her abuela, the neighborhood healer. Everyone in Port Coral knows about the curse on Rosa: Since the sea claimed the lives of her father and grandfather, anyone who dates her risks a similar fate. Yet smart, pragmatic Rosa can't help falling for Alex, a tattooed baker with a boat, anymore than she can help dreaming of college in Havana. Switching smoothly between English and Spanish, Almarie Guerra narrates with down-to-earth sweetness, her voice providing a welcome throughline for listeners as Rosa's story shifts from breezy rom-com to a deeper look at how pain and love can resonate through generations.
