The Heartbreak Pill (Atria Books 2008) was her first novel. It was also published as La píldora del mal amor (Atria Books 2009), and was the Latino International Book Award's first prize pick for Best Romance in English, a Triple Crown Winner for Best Romance in Spanish the following year, and first prize for Best Romance in Latino Literacy's "Books into Movies" competition in 2010.
