From the author of Stef Soto, Taco Queen comes this story about sisterhood, friendship, and the intricacies of blended families. The Mendoza sisters need a do-over Raquel and Lucinda used to be inseparable. But ever since their parents split, Raquel has been acting like editor-in-chief of their lives. To avoid her overbearing sister, Lucinda spends most of her time with her headphones on, practicing her skating routine. Then a pandemic hits, and the sisters are forced to spend the lockdown at their dad's ranch house. Suddenly Raquel sees a chance to get back everything they've lost. If they can convince their mom to come along, maybe they can get their parents to fall in love again and give their family a second chance, a do-over. But at the ranch, they get a not-so-welcome surprise: their dad's new girlfriend and her daughter are already living there Lucinda finds she actually likes them, which only makes Raquel more desperate to get rid of them. And as her Raquel's schemes get more and more out of hand, Lucinda starts to wonder what they are really fighting for. Is trying to bring the Mendoza family back together really just tearing them further apart?
