This is so beautifully and deftly done, Mystery Author! From Xiomara to Rolanda to her reclaiming her first name (something to which I can personally relate) you show us so skillfully the personal journey of this girl into woman, her acceptance and understanding of herself, the sweetness of her reunion with Minerva, her coming to terms with her mother. It's just brilliant, and I wish I had a more eloquent way of saying so. :-) Brava!
