Ellie Brooks has spent the past two years of her life building barriers around herself that are guaranteed to keep people out and her demons in. She doesn't want to get close to anyone for fear of being hurt again. When she meets Latin superstar Victor Garza, she is shocked at how quickly he is able to penetrate her armor. She doesn't want to let him in but can't deny the chemistry they have. He has the potential to heal her wounds and open her heart but she isn't sure she can let him.
Will love be enough to keep them together or will Ellie's past prove to be too much for the pair to overcome?

Review:
Translation of Love is about a girl, Elizabeth, who came out of a horrid relationship broken. She spent years trying to put her life back together and build walls around her heart. She was determined to never let another man hurt her again! In comes Victor Garza, a hot Latin singer! My mind kept picturing Ricky Martin; I know he is gay, but still smoking!!! Elizabeth, or Ellie, has a hard time opening up to him, but thankfully he is a patient man. I love most that these aren’t naive teenagers; they are adults who have had lives and relationships that didn’t work out. And don’t worry; there are lots of hott Latin lover scenesJ!
Now no story would be complete without a little chaos. In comes Mrs. Garza, the momma lioness!!! That woman has some claws! I could not believe the lengths she went to split these two up! I am hoping the story will continue with Ellie’s best friend Jordan (hint hint Alice). I don’t think I have ever connected with a story more than this one! It was just so realistic and touched my heart! Alice I applaud you!!
Rating: 4.5 stars
Cheers,
