Description
MAURA CROSSES HER LAST MERIDIAN
Book Summary
A romantic novel that combines humor, passion, and personal development in the exotic setting of the Canary Islands. Maura, a flight attendant for transoceanic flights, faces a sentimental dilemma when her past returns with force: on one hand, the captain who represented her most toxic relationship; on the other, Fernando, the star-boy she rejected without quite understanding why. Accompanied by her friends Abril, Susana, and the fun-loving Hilario, Maura must decide if she is prepared to cross her most difficult meridian: that of self-love and personal growth.
What is it about?
Maura is a transoceanic flight attendant, and her life consists of crossing meridians around the planet. After a professional transfer, she lands in the lucky Canary Islands, where she believes she has left her most toxic relationship behind. However, the captain returns stronger than ever, just when the universe puts Fernando back in her path—the star-boy she rejected years ago without yet knowing why.
The novel follows Maura on a journey of self-discovery where she must face her fears, heal wounds from the past, and make decisions that will define her romantic future. Her friends Abril, Susana, and the fun and tender Hilario will be her guides in this story of humor, love, passion, and personal development. The central question is whether Maura will dare to cross her greatest meridian.
