Zayra Choi Yaritú is no ordinary young woman: the daughter of an Indigenous Chiquitana mother and a Latino-Korean father, she bears the mark of two opposite worlds. She grew up between the magic and wisdom of the rainforest… and the relentless discipline of an education abroad.

But when she returns to her homeland, she finds her people on the brink of losing everything. Greed for the resources of the Red Forest has unleashed a silent war—political corruption, hidden threats, and a danger that doesn’t distinguish between allies and enemies.

Haunted by a past mistake, Zayra agrees to a marriage of convenience with Kang Ryu, a brilliant, cold, and principled Korean CEO. He comes to Bolivia seeking to save his family’s company… but what he doesn’t know is that he’s also stepping into a game where power and loyalty are traded with the same cold precision as the gemstones he hopes to export.

What begins as a calculated deal will become a story of unlikely alliances, secrets burning beneath the surface, and a love that could change the fate of an entire people.

In the Red Forest, every decision has a price… and not everyone is willing to pay it.

How far would you go to save what you love… even if it means losing yourself?

I had a great time… really, it was fun. 


These past weeks in Santa Cruz have been interesting, different from anything I know. 


Thanks to you, I saw places I couldn't have imagined.


I told my brother about some of the places we visited and… he asked me for the links to check them out. 


He wants to plan his next trip here to Santa Cruz. If you can send me that information, I'll forward it to him.


Of course! Don't worry, Santa Cruz is vast and beautiful.


 I'm glad you enjoyed these past few days. 


Here are the official links to the places we visited so he can look at them and plan better.


Unfortunately, the park doesn't have an official website or social media, but if he searches online, I'm sure he'll find it.


I hope this information is useful to him.
