"She appreciated when Hemingway had planted a banyan tree at his house and informed her its parasitic root base were like individual desire. At the time she'd thought it passionate. She hadn't recognized his alert." In Depression-era Key Western, Mariella Bennet, the little princess of any American fisherman and a Cuban female, knows craving for food. Her battle to support her family pursuing her father's loss of life leads her to a pub and bordello, where she wagers on a risky boxing match...and draws in the eye of two men: world-famous copy writer Ernest Hemingway, and Gavin Murray, one of the World Battle I veterans who are laboring to create the Overseas Highway. When Mariella is employed as a maid by Hemingway's second wife, Pauline, she gets into a rarified world of lavish, celebrity-filled dinner gatherings and complex off-island excursions. As she becomes caught up in the tensions and excesses of the Hemingway household, the attentions of the larger-than-life copy writer turn into a dangerous temptation...even as simple Gavin Murray draws her back again to what matters most. Will she cross an invisible brand with the volatile Hemingway, or find a way to declare her own dreams? As an enormous hurricane bears down on Key Western, Mariella faces some harsh truths...and the likelihood of getting rid of everything she loves.
