Thank you to the author, publisher, and Net Galley for an ARC of this book. I have mixed feeling regarding this book.  I love the premise of the story. The concepts of the magic salts was interesting. I felt that the author told more than she showed. I had high expectations, and it didn't quite meet them. There weren't enough small, build-up Zorro like moments. Not quite sure if the town really didn't know that she wasn't Salvacion or not. I do like how the brother/sister relationship developed and the relationship with her mother improved. I will purchase it for our library. Lola is a strong female character and I had to keep reminding myself that she is a teenager and they do make impulsive decisions.
