A Delightful Read

"Flames of Glory" is a delightful read. It is a story about two young women, one American, one Cuban, who lived in Tampa while troops of soldiers were on their way to help liberate Cuba from Spain. The lives of the two young woman intersect along the way and they become good friends while they go through the romantic period of their lives of choosing a mate. The antagonist creates just the right amount of suspense so the story held my interest to the end. It s a story that shows the American culture duing that era in a comparative study to the lives of Cubans in America.
