Natalie Guerrero is the author of the coming of age novel called My Train Leaves At Three. Xiomara is thirty years old and she lives with her ultra Catholic Puerto Rican mother after her older sister suddenly died. She wants to be a singer and an actress. She works two minimum wage jobs. One job is a photo developer. The other is a singing waitress at a diner. Xiomara can sing really well. Even with both jobs she isn't able to keep up on the rent payments. Her mother is so grief stricken by her sister's death that she hasn't worked for months. How will she get ahead in this world where the men hold all the cards? The story has a happy ending for which I am glad.
