Cuaquita, a teenager newly arrived in prerevolutionary Havana, discovers the Havana nightlife with two sensual women. A kiss leaves her in love with a man who disappears. Eight years later they meet again and live a love story, cut short by motherhood and by a revolution that brings shortages and misery.

A work for readers of historical and romantic fiction, with special interest in pre-revolutionary Cuba.
