An unforgettable knockout of a read!
Christina Zambrano is a straight-A student, a model of success at Brickman High School. But at home, life is far from perfect. Her mother, Elisa Zambrano, was once a fierce boxing champion known as "Manos femeninas de piedra"—The Female Hands of Stone. Now, she’s more interested in partying than in reliving her glory days.
As Christina juggles her hidden struggles, she dreams of a future far from her chaotic home. But when her mom gets a shot at redemption in the boxing ring, their lives are thrown back into the spotlight. Can Elisa prove she still has the heart of a champion? And will Christina find the courage to fight for her own dreams?
"My Mom, The Champion" is a heart-pounding story of family, resilience, and the fight for a better life. This emotional rollercoaster will remind you that true strength isn’t just about winning in the ring—it’s about never giving up, even when life delivers its hardest punches.
