Summary
Hunter had calmly awaited Ms. Noceda’s instruction. It made sense that she hadn’t made any demands the first few days, it was clear that they were all in shock and needed time to process before any of them could be trusted to successfully carry out any task, no matter how simple. But this was day five, and though none of them were doing particularly well, they were coming back around. The thousand-yard stares and silence that had cloaked them those first awful nights had fallen away into something less shell-shocked. And yet, Ms. Noceda had not told any of them what they were supposed to be doing.
Because they had to have been expected to be doing something. Hunter was not naive. Ms. Noceda’s assurance that they were all welcome in her home was a kind gesture, but kindness was not given without being earned.
Or
Hunter thinks he has to work to earn Camila's kindness. Too bad he can't figure out what she wants.Series

Summary
Camila always dreamed of having a big family. She came from one, Manny came from one; they were in agreement that they wanted a whole bunch of kids.
Things didn’t work out that way. Manny got sick and that became the focus of Camila’s life. She tried to shield Luz as best she could, but Luz was growing up, growing wiser every day; she could see the dawning horror in her daughter’s eyes, the knowledge that Manny wasn’t getting better.
Manny died holding her hand and their dreams of a huge, loud family died with him.
Fate had other plans.
(Vee was hers in a heartbeat. Camila had a soft spot for Hunter, but she didn’t begin to think of him as hers until the end of the kids’ second month with her.)
*
Camila's always dreamed of a big family; she just didn't expect to become a mother of three in such an unconventional way.
Or, a study in Camila Noceda and her growing bond with Hunter.
