I forgot just how good Angelina Lopez's writing is. The Milagro Street series epitomizes the best of romance. This is a contemporary fiction that explores so many themes: class, family dynamics, divorce, addiction, and misogyny/patriarchy - all through a lens of racism. Lopez educates readers, but integrates it seamlessly. Her characters are complex, and their circumstances pull at readers' heartstrings. She's even woven magical realism into this series, and it all feels just right. She delivers all of this wrapped up in a steamy romance. 4.5 stars - maybe even 5.
