Jessica Luna is your typical 26 year old: she has man trouble, mom
trouble, and not a clue what to do with her life (though everyone
else in her family seems to have plenty of suggestions!) After a
lifetime of being babied by her family, Jess is incapable of
trusting herself to make the right choices. So instead, she bases
all of her life decisions on signs. She looks to everything for
guidance, from the direction her
rearview-mirror-Virgin-de-Guadalupe sways to whatever Madame
Hortensia, her psychic, sees in the cards.
When her sort-of boyfriend Guillermo, a gifted unmotivated
artist, disappoints her again, Jessica thinks it's time to call it
quits. Just to be sure, she checks in with Madame Hortensia who
confirms that yes, it is time for a change. (Who knew $20 could buy
so much security!) Right on cue, Jess meets Jonathan; he's the
complete opposite of Guillermo--of all Jess's boyfriends, in fact.
He's successful, has a stable job....and is white. Jess isn't sure
if Jonathan is really the change Madame Hortensia saw. Sure he
gives great career advice, but is he advising her on a career she
actually wants? And yes he's all about commitment, but is it Jess
or her mother who really wants marriage?
Jess runs back to Madame Hortensia for advice, but even she is
out of answers. Now there's only one thing that's certain: no
one--not her mother, her sister, her boyfriend or her psychic--can
tell her what to do. For better or for worse, Jess will have to
take the plunge and make her own decisions if she wants to have any
future at all.
