Sirena Diamond is the child of Mexican immigrants who has grown up on the cusp of two cultures. When she isn't consoling her traumatized war veteran brother or entertaining her eccentric abuela with her pet duck, she is caught between a boyfriend trying to erase his past and a man whose past is an ever-changing story and her best friend without boundaries.
Why Stars Burn, a novel-in-stories, introduces us to Sirena’s world and the mysteries that lie just below the glittering surface of life in Los Angeles.
