by Vanessa Hernández (Author)

Las hermanas Fernández tienen distintos anhelos, pero vivirán y sufrirán juntas las hazañas y desventuras que conlleva encontrar el propio camino y, sobre todo, la felicidad.

Guerrero, principios del siglo xx. Una tragedia cambiará para siempre el destino de la familia Fernández. Tras la muerte de la señora Micaela y la pequeña Milena, don Ismael tendrá que seguir adelante con sus cuatro hijas, quienes entran en la madurez de manera forzada. Evelina, Faustina, Laureana y Lena lucharán por encontrar su lugar en el mundo, lejos del calor y la seguridad de la hacienda Las alumbradas. Sin embargo, no será tan fácil para Lena, para quien estar lejos de la tierra que la vio crecer provocará una nostalgia profunda en su corazón. Lena se forjará un carácter aguerrido y rebelde, y desarrollará además un don que escapa a todo entendimiento racional... Habiendo bebido de la sabiduría ancestral de las indias con las que convivió de niña, es capaz de hacer y deshacer hechizos para evitarles el sufrimiento a las personas que ama. Pero si el propósito de su vida parece ser ayudar a los demás, en especial a sus hermanas, dónde quedará su propia dicha?

Las alumbradas es una novela sobre cuatro hermanas rodeadas de eventos extraordinarios que, a pesar de las adversidades, lucharán incansablemente por encontrar el amor.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The Fernández sisters all want different things but are thrust together into a series of adventures and misadventures to forge their own paths and find happiness.

Guerrero, Mexico, early twentieth century. A tragedy reverses the fortune of the Fernández family. Following the death of his wife, Micaela, and their youngest daughter, Milena, Don Ismael is left alone with his four remaining daughters, who are forced to grow up fast. Evelina, Faustina, Laureana, and Lena struggle to find their places in the world, far from the warmth and security of the family hacienda, Las Alumbradas. This is especially difficult for Lena, whose heart is heavy with nostalgia for the home of her youth. To compensate, she becomes belligerent and rebellious, and exploits a talent that defies rational understanding. Drawing on the ancestral teachings of the indigenous women who lived on the hacienda, Lena discovers the ability to cast and undo spells to protect those she loves from suffering. But if her life's purpose seems to be helping others, especially her sisters, how will she find her own happiness?

Las Alumbradas tells the story of four sisters who navigate a series of extraordinary events, overcoming adversity in a tireless search for love.
