The story portrays a Mexican American teenage girl living in Houston who is torn between the demands of her family and her ambitions for the future.

This is the author's first novel. Juan Castillo of NBC News wrote that this book and another one of Pérez's novels, The Knife and the Butterfly, explore what it means to grow up as a Hispanic or Latino teenager in the United States "amid difficult circumstances."
