Summary

Home is not a place. It's a heartbeat. Penelope Prado has always dreamed of opening her own pasteleria next to her father's restaurant, Nacho's Tacos. But her mom and dad have different plans - leaving Pen to choose between not disappointing her traditional Mexican parents or following her own path. Then she meets a cute new hire at Nacho's, who sees through her hard exterior. Xander Amaro has been searching for home since he was a boy. For him, a job at Nacho's is an opportunity for just that. But when both the restaurant and Xander's immigration status are threatened, he will do whatever it takes to protect his newfound family and himself. Together, Pan and Xander must navigate first love and discover where they belong in order to save the place they all call home
