Book excerpt: No one in Mexico ever imagined the revolution would pass through Montreal. Not Frederico Farias, who had composed a quiet revolutionary life for himself in lectures and town meetings, far from the battlefronts. Not Rosario Alomar, whose husband's life would in the senseless battle. Not even Valentin Cobelo, who, together with his men, chased down the federales in the town's cobbled streets. In the midst of a bloody revolution, desire unfurls between Rosario and Valentin. "Passion can be smelled, like rainstorms--they warn you of their fury, but you can't stop them."Loving You Was My Undoing is a tour de force--an unforgettable story of fervent longing and of wishes carved in the air that might have gone better unanswered.
