“A heartwarming story of innocence, teenage angst, and self-discovery,
Three vividly portrays the pivotal moments in Isabella Guerra’s life as
she struggles with boy crushes, breakups, and big dreams. Written with
honesty and humor, it’s an inspiring tale that illustrates the power of faith
and family. A North Star for the young reader.”

—Pamela Hamilton, award-winning author of Lady Be Good

“Within Three’s beautiful prose lies a life story that is raw, real, and relatable.
To the reader’s benefit, Ms. Peña exposes experiences and emotions in a
way that drives home the point that the reader is not alone, that learning
to love ourselves as well as others is a universal pursuit. Even as a woman
of a certain age, I immediately recognized myself in Three’s Isabella, yet
without the self-reflective way in which she navigates the highs and lows
of love and life. This is a moving, meaningful novel for young women.”

—Beverly Ingle, author of 10 Little Rules for the Modern Southern Belle

“I LOVED it. Brenda Nicole Peña writes with such heart that I couldn’t
put THREE down. Thanks to Isabella Guerra’s journey, Peña has created
an honest and insightful road map for those awkward teenage years.
Grounded by faith, Isabella used painful experiences to grow and become
stronger, ultimately making her dreams come true. A must-read for
mothers and daughters.”
