Titres dans Amitié

Emily Anderson adores romance—both in books and in real life (though her own love life is more ‘tragic subplot’ than ‘happily-ever-after’). As an audiobook narrator, she spends her days bringing love stories to life, convinced that one day, her own perfect romance will come true. Jude Cavendish, thinks romance is a fairy tale for fools. A crime author with a serious case of writer’s block, he’s horrified when his publisher asks him to add a love story to his latest novel. He knows murders, mysteries, and mayhem—not grand gestures and stolen kisses.

His parting potshot: “It’s not me, it’s you.”

Un pequeño castillo de caza en Hungría, al pie de los Cárpatos, donde alguna vez se celebraron fastuosas veladas y la música de Chopin inundaba los elegantes salones decorados al estilo francés, ha cambiado radicalmente de aspecto.

De jóvenes habían sido amigos inseparables, pero luego sus caminos se bifurcaron: uno se marchó a Extremo Oriente y el otro, en cambio, permaneció hasta hoy en su propiedad.

This year Christmas will be PERFECT. This is the year when all dreams come true, carol singers will carol the Wassail would Wass, or possibly Sail, children will frolic, extended family will get on and behave normally and not fall out and just eat the effing mince pies without questioning their organic/ gluten free/ vegan/ fairtrade status. Everyone will be delighted by their thoughtfully chosen presents and not surreptitiously rifle through the wrapping paper looking for the gift receipt, and the dogs will give the impression that Ellen is in charge of them and not the other way around.
