Tension rises between him and Lourdes, and ultimately deep feelings are awakened in both of them. But can their blossoming love overcome painful histories that haunt them both? "Under a Mexican Moon" is tale of love, life, and death filled with complex characters and painful secrets. How much of themselves will John and Lourdes have to give up in order to come together?
