The River – The Unsung Love Story (Kindle Edition 2020)
by Cristina Marrero
“This is not a typical love story, it is much more interesting and captivating than that. I felt very emotional while reading. I definitely recommend it.”
In the spring of 1892, Cristy Anne Hayse would meet the person she was destined to spend the rest of her life loving. There was only one problem: The love of her life was a girl. The time was wrong, the place was wrong, but their love was real. From the moment Cristy Anne Hayes and Lisette Hayle locked eyes, both knew their lives would forever be connected. No one thought such a love could have begun in the small southern town of Green Springs. But it did, and it was beautiful. This is the two lovers’ unsung love story and the mark of a romance that would last a lifetime.

A Rambling Wanderer’s Tale (Amazon Edition 2020)
by Cristina Marrero
RR | A Necessary Poetic Voice
“The author is relentless in the transparency of [their] life and the ideological perspectives of the new world; [they] combine the ruthless truth of the here and now and with personal, heartfelt poetic rhythm, gives us a look at the world that was and now is… and if it continues – where it will go – almost dystopian with a hint of a diary written by a true poet.“
A Rambling Wanderer’s Tale is a collection of poems examining the roller coaster of emotions spawned by anxiety, depression, love, revolution, heartbreak and acceptance. These poems were written from 2009-2011, and some of the pieces in this book have been revised from Marrero’s one act play Stop & Smell the Roses. This edition has a special poem written in 2015.
