Nights of Blue

by Jacqueline Fernandez

Overview

I once heard it said that if Hemingway had discovered the charm of Guanajuato, Mexico his inspiration would have led him down south. There is a kind of magical romance to this place nestled in the mountains of the Sierra that encompass enchantment. Perhaps it is the flow of silver hidden in the veins of its land or the miracle water that mysteriously sustains and preserves the earth. It is an ideal setting for anything unusual or extraordinary to happen. Perchance it is a love meant for eternity, encapsulated in a salty drop of water that yearns to be released.

Nights of Blue is a story that unfolds through the perspective of Clarissa, an impressionable young woman traveling to the colloquial town of Guanajuato, Mexico with her aunt. The reputed town is veiled in beauty yet reverberates with much mystery. When Clarissa is compelled by curiosity to follow a distinguished old gentleman into the cathedral, she cannot fathom what awaits her. Her journey unravels when he abruptly kisses her and bestows a pendant that leads to a tangled past filed with love, turbulence, and intrigue.
