She’s his best friend’s little sister. He’s the biggest player of them all. They shouldn’t be together. But this summer’s just too tempting. Sixteen-year-old Emilia Moretti’s goal for the summer is simple: forget her brother’s best friend—Nick Grawsky—ever existed. It should be easy: He’s spending his summer in the Hamptons, adding girls in tiny bikinis to his list of broken hearts. Guarantee he won’t be telling them they’re like his little sisters. This summer, Emilia won’t stay awake at night thinking about him. She’ll need flawless ballet movements to have a shot at next year’s showcase, and she’s finally ready to search for her birth parents. But when Nick decides to stay in the city, Emilia’s resolve disappears in a pirouette. Maybe it’s the spin they needed to be together. As long as she doesn’t get stuck believing in happily ever after… Nick is tired of pretending to be the happy, let’s-have-fun guy. His father wants him to change his career from professional dancer to…lawyer. He needs to put all of his focus on dancing to prove to Daddy Dearest he’s good enough to make it big. And he may have a case of the bluest balls in history courtesy of Emilia. She’s off-limits: The bro code with Roberto even forbids the dirty thoughts he has about her. Besides, he’s not boyfriend material. He only has time for flings, for girls who don’t expect much, for girls he doesn’t want to kiss goodnight. He knows he should resist her, but he’s not sure he wants to… At least for this summer. It’s going to be a summer like no other.

Last year, her father was still alive. But a car crash changed all that—and Natalya can’t stop blaming herself. Now, she goes to a regular high school in New Jersey; lives with her onetime prima ballerina, now alcoholic mother; and has no hope of a dance career. At her new school, however, sexy soccer player Antonio sees a brighter future for Natalya, or at least a more pleasant present. Keeping him an arabesque away proves to be a challenge for Natalya and his patient charms eventually draw her out of her shell. When upsetting secrets come to light and Tonio’s own problems draw her in, Natalya shuts down again, this time turning to alcohol herself. Can Natalya learn to trust Antonio before she loses him—and destroys herself?

One Dream Only

# Most Eligible Scrooge

Pas de promesses. Pas d’illusions. Ils étaient d’accord. Nouvelle ville. Nouvelle vie. Du moins, c’est ce que Jen Harrison s’imagine. À dix-neuf ans à peine, elle réalise son rêve : devenir danseuse pour une prestigieuse compagnie à Paris. Mais sous les apparences, elle reste hantée par le décès de sa sœur et certaines erreurs qu’elle voudrait tant oublier... Devenue experte dans l’art de cacher qui elle est vraiment, elle compte bien ne pas se laisser distraire par un homme. Un coup d’un soir, à la limite. Rien de plus. Alors, cet étranger sexy a beau lui valoir ses premiers éclats de rire depuis des années, il est hors de question de le revoir... Aucune fille ne résiste à Lucas Wills. Les groupies se bousculent pour séduire le bad boy devenu star du rock, mais il se montre honnête et refuse tout engagement, car il sait trop bien que les sentiments peuvent tout gâcher. Son ex ne s’est pas contentée de lui mentir : elle a piétiné son cœur, s’est servi de lui pour devenir célèbre, et a bien failli lui coûter sa carrière. Plus jamais ça ! Alors, quand il se réveille dans son lit après une nuit des plus torrides avec une inconnue et que celle-ci a disparu, il ne devrait pas s’étonner, ni écrire une des chansons les plus tristes qu’il ait jamais écrites, et encore moins rêver de retrouver cette fille... Lucas n’en croit pas ses yeux quand Jen, ce coup d’un soir parti sans prévenir, se présente à l’audition pour les danseuses de son prochain clip. Leur attirance réciproque est de plus en plus irrésistible, mais entre les secrets de Jen et l’ex de Lucas, il se pourrait bien que les carrières pour lesquelles ils ont travaillé si dur volent en éclats, tout comme leurs cœurs... À eux de décider ce qui compte vraiment pour eux, et si l’amour vaut la peine de se battre.

Un Amour En Si Mineur

A Summer Like No Other (Broken Dreams

A ballerina and a rock star...what should have been a one-night stand in Paris could be so much more. A sweet romance with angst and second chances. No promises. No fake tomorrows. That was the plan. New city. New life. At least, that's what nineteen-year-old Jen Harrison believes. On the surface, she's living her dream: dancing in a prestigious dance company in Paris. But her sister's death and the mistakes she's tried to bury haunt her. She's become a pro at hiding who she truly is, and she definitely doesn't want a guy to derail her, but a one night-stand she can do. Nothing more. She definitely doesn't plan to see the sexy stranger who made her laugh for the first time in years ever again. Girls don't walk away from Lucas Wills. Bad boy turned rock star, he's got his share of groupies. Always upfront, he doesn't promise fake tomorrows because love can destroy everything. Been there, done that. His ex not only lied to him, she stomped on his heart, used him to become famous, and almost ruined him. So, waking up alone after a night beyond his wildest imagination with a girl he just met shouldn't upset him, shouldn't inspire one of the saddest songs he's ever written, shouldn't make him want to chase after her. When Jen, the one-night stand who got away, auditions to be a dancer in Lucas' next music video, they can't stop their growing attraction. But Jen's secrets and his ex could shatter the careers they tried so hard to build and their hearts...they will have to decide what's more important and if love is worth the fight.

Love in B Minor

Uma História de Amor Proibida de Verão entre uma Bailarina e o Melhor Amigo de seu Irmão. Ela é a irmã caçula do seu melhor amigo. Ele é o maior pegador. Eles não deveriam ficar juntos. Mas o verão é tentador demais. Emilia Moretti tem dezesseis anos e um objetivo simples no verão: esquecer que o melhor amigo do seu irmão, Nick Grawski, existe. Deveria ser fácil: ele vai passar o verão nos Hamptons, acrescentando garotas com biquínis minúsculos à sua lista de corações partidos. Ele certamente não as tratará como uma irmã caçula. Neste verão, Emilia não ficará acordada à noite pensando nele. Ela vai precisar ser perfeita nos movimentos de balé para ter uma chance de ganhar um papel na exibição do próximo ano, e está finalmente pronta para procurar seus pais biológicos. Mas quando Nick decide ficar na cidade, a firmeza de Emilia desaparece em uma pirueta. Talvez seja esse o rodopio que precisavam para ficarem juntos. Contanto que ela não fique acreditando em um final feliz... Nick está cansado de fingir ser um cara feliz, sempre pronto para se divertir. Seu pai quer que ele mude de carreira, de dançarino profissional para... advogado. Ele precisa de foco total na dança para provar ao Papaizinho Querido que é bom o bastante para fazer sucesso. E talvez ele tenha a maior dor nas bolas da história, cortesia de Emilia. Ela está fora de cogitação: o código de homens entre ele e Roberto proíbe até mesmo pensamentos impuros em relação a ela. Além do mais, ele não serve para ser namorado. Só tem tempo para ficadas, para garotas que não esperam muito, para garotas nas quais ele não quer dar um beijo de boa-noite. Ele sabe que deveria resistir, mas não tem certeza se quer... Pelo menos neste verão. Vai ser um verão inigualável. Um romance com o melhor amigo do meu irmão: GRATUITO

Um Verão Inigualável

Manchmal ist eine zweite Chance nicht das, was man erwartet. Manchmal bekommt man eine zweite Chance auf die Liebe. Die siebzehnjährige Ballerina Emilia Moretti ist es leid, immer nur die Zweitbeste zu sein. Und sie wird der Welt beweisen, dass sie es verdient, Erste zu sein. In der kommenden Show der Hochschule für Darstellende Kunst. Für ihre leiblichen Eltern. Und im Herzen fürf den Kerl, den sie liebt. Sie probt stundenlang, träumt davon, die Nummer eins zu sein, stellt sich vor, wie sich ihr ganzes Leben ändern wird. Aber als nichts so läuft wie geplant, muss sie erkennen, was es wirklich bedeutet, Erste zu sein. Der achtzehnjährige Nick Grawski will nicht mehr den Regeln seines Vaters folgen. Er wird beweisen, dass er dazu bestimmt ist, ein Tänzer zu sein - kein Anwalt - und er wird sich nicht von Em fernhalten, nur weil sein Vater es verlangt. Er muss Em zeigen, dass er diesmal bleiben wird und dass er ihr nicht wieder das Herz brechen wird. Selbst als ihre Welt einstürzt, auch als er herausfindet, dass sein Vater nur versucht hat, ihn zu schützen, auch als es härter ist, für einander da zu sein als sich zu verlieben. EINE ZWEITE CHANCE ist ein Roman über Hoffnung, Herzschmerz und zerbrochene Träume. Es ist ein Roman über die Liebe und die Entdeckung, dass es nicht immer wichtig ist, Erste zu sein.

Eine zweite Chance

Zestienjarige Natalya Pushkaya heeft één droom en meer niet: de beste ballerina ooit te worden. Dansen is altijd haar identiteit geweest en ze werkt zo hard ze kan om de hoofdrol te krijgen van de eindejaarsopvoering van de School of Performing Arts. Maar... zal ze het halen? Binnen een week zal Natalya's leven voor altijd veranderen.

Maar één droom

Sem promessas. Sem falsos amanhãs. Esse era o plano. Nova cidade. Nova vida. Ao menos é nisso que acredita a jovem de dezenove anos, Jen Harrison. Por fora, ela está vivendo seu sonho: dançando em uma prestigiosa companhia de dança em Paris. Mas a morte de sua irmã e os erros que ela tentou enterrar ainda a assombram. Ele se tornou profissional em esconder quem realmente é e definitivamente não quer nenhum homem para lhe atrapalhar. Um caso de uma noite ela pode ter, mas nada mais. Ela definitivamente não planeja ver novamente o atraente estranho que a fez rir pela primeira vez em anos. Garotas não viram as costas para Lucas Wills. Garoto problemático que se transformou em estrela do rock, ele tem sua parcela de groupies. Sempre direto, não promete falsos amanhãs, pois o amor pode destruir tudo. Ele já passou por isso. Sua ex não apenas mentiu para ele, mas também pisou em seu coração, o usou para ficar famosa e quase o arruinou. Então, acordar sozinho depois de uma noite além de seus sonhos mais loucos com uma garota que ele acabou de conhecer não deveria lhe incomodar, não deveria inspirar uma das músicas mais tristes que ele já escreveu, não deveria lhe fazer querer ir atrás dela. Quando Jen, o caso de uma noite que escapou, faz uma audição para ser uma dançarina no próximo clipe de Lucas, eles não conseguem conter sua crescente atração. Mas os segredos de Jen e sua ex podem abalar as carreiras que eles tentaram tão arduamente construir. E seus corações... Eles terão que decidir o que é mais importante e se vale a pena lutar pelo amor.

Amor em si menor

Stai imparando l’inglese? Are you learning Italian? This book can help you with that: one page in English, one page in Italian ... Questo libro può aiutarti: una pagina è in inglese e una in italiano. Lei è la sorella più piccola del suo migliore amico. Lui è il miglior rubacuori in circolazione. Non dovrebbero stare insieme. Però quest’estate la tentazione sarà grande. She’s his best friend’s little sister. He’s the biggest player of them all. They shouldn’t be together. But this summer’s just too tempting. L’obiettivo che la sedicenne Emilia Moretti si è prefissata per l’estate è semplice: dimenticarsi che il migliore amico di suo fratello – Nick Grawsky – sia mai esistito. Dovrebbe essere facile: lui passerà l’estate negli Hamptons, andando ad aggiungere ragazze in bikini succinti alla sua lista di cuori spezzati. E garantito che non le tratterà come delle sorelle. Quest’estate Emilia non starà sveglia di notte pensando a lui. Avrà bisogno di perfezionarsi in modo impeccabile nella danza classica, se spera di combinare qualcosa di buono il prossimo anno. E poi è finalmente pronta a cercare i suoi genitori naturali. Ma quando Nick decide di restare in città, tutta la risolutezza di Emilia svanisce nell’istante di una piroetta. Forse è la svolta di cui avevano bisogno per stare insieme. Fintanto che lei non si mette a sperare nel ‘vissero per sempre felici e contenti’ … Nick è stanco di fingere di essere il classico tipo contento che ama divertirsi. Suo padre vuole che abbandoni i sogni di una carriera da ballerino professionista per diventare… avvocato. Dovrà quindi concentrarsi appieno sulla danza per dare prova al caro paparino della sua possibilità di diventare qualcuno. E per gentile concessione di Emilia, potrebbe capitargli di subire la peggiore frustrazione romantica della storia. Lei è irraggiungibile. Off-limits. Il codice di fratellanza con Roberto proibisce pensieri audaci nei suoi confronti. E poi lui non è tipo da fidanzamenti: ha tempo solo per le scappatelle, per ragazze che non si aspettano chissà che, per ragazze a cui non è costretto a dare il bacio della buonanotte. Sa che dovrebbe resisterle, ma non è sicuro di volerlo fare… Almeno per quest’estate. Sarà un’estate senza precedenti. **** Sixteen-year-old Emilia Moretti’s goal for the summer is simple: forget her brother’s best friend—Nick Grawsky—ever existed.

Alles fuer einen Traum & One Dream Only (Zweisprachige Ausgabe: Englisch-Deutsch)

A second chance romance set during the holiday season in a small town on Maryland's Eastern Shore: full of laughter and heartwarming moments, checklists, family dynamics, a stubborn cat, and a rescue dog. All Sorcha O'Connor wants for Christmas is for her life to turn into a Hallmark movie—but sexier. Ryan Sawyer has a few things on his wishlist. First, he wants to stay away from Swans Cove. Second, he wants his NHL career back. And third, he wants Sorcha. Always has, always will. When wedding dress designer Sorcha O'Connor got stranded at the altar and went viral as #TheLeftoverBride, she lost everything: her fiancé, her thriving business, her glowing reputation, and her dreams. To forget the upcoming first anniversary of that fateful day, Sorcha is ticking items off her "31 Things to Do Before the 31st" list and creating new dress designs—working day and night to get her life back on track. Not on her list? Falling for her former best friend —at one point more than best friend—hockey star Ryan Sawyer. Especially since he's now known as the #HockeyHottie; Sorcha's got enough hashtags for a lifetime. Ryan Sawyer skated out of Swans Cove right out of high school. And since then, he stuck to the one item on his wishlist he could control. He busted his ass, making sure he always had the perfect excuse for avoiding Swans Cove: hockey. But thanks to his injured shoulder, rumors about his uncertain future at the Tacoma Angels, and his mother's birthday, he's back for a quick visit. His publicist was crystal clear—Ryan's got to lay low and avoid stirring up trouble or risk losing his spot on the team. But he can't stop thinking about Sorcha, the redhead who knows him better than even his therapist. Ryan wasn't there for her when she needed him most, and for that, she might want to shred him with her dressmaker's shears, though… Maybe he could just pass by and say hello? When Sorcha's former #RunawayGroom becomes the Most Coveted Bachelor in America, virtual eyes focus on Sorcha again. This time, Ryan's not going to bolt—even when Sorcha blurts out on national TV that both she and Ryan are working on their so-called "Happy Lists"…together. Will the spotlight finally work in Sorcha and Ryan's favor? Or will their past—and their hashtags—get in the way of their Happily Ever After?

#TheLeftoverBride

Second standalone full-length novel in the Broken Dreams series Sometimes being first isn’t what you expected. Seventeen-year-old ballerina Emilia Moretti is tired of always being second best. And she’s going to prove the world she deserves to be first. In her upcoming School of the Performing Arts showcase. In the eyes of her birth parents. And in the heart of the guy she loves. She spends hours rehearsing, hours dreaming about becoming number one, hours imagining how her entire life is about to change. But when nothing goes the way she planned, she’ll need to realize what it really means to be first. Eighteen-year-old Nick Grawski doesn’t want to follow Daddy Dearest’s rules any longer. He's going to prove he's meant to be a dancer—not a lawyer—and he is not going to stay away from Em just because his father demands it. He needs to show Em that—this time around—he’s there to stay and that he won’t break her heart again. Even when her world goes down to shit, even when he finds out his dad may have been trying to protect him all along, even if being there for one another is harder than falling in love. ALWAYS SECOND BEST is a novel of hope and heartbreak and broken dreams. It’s a novel about falling in love and discovering that being first isn’t always what matters.

La peur en plein cœur

***Précommandez cette nouvelle comédie romantique dès aujourd'hui pour seulement €2.99 au lieu de €5.99!*** Tout ce que Sorcha O'Connor veut pour Noël, c'est que sa vie se transforme en une comédie romantique… mais en plus sexy. Ryan Sawyer a quelques souhaits sur sa liste. Premièrement, il veut rester loin de Swans Cove. Deuxièmement, il veut reprendre sa carrière dans la Ligue nationale de hockey. Et troisièmement, il veut Sorcha. Il l'a toujours désirée et la désirera toujours. Quand la créatrice de robes de mariée Sorcha O'Connor a été abandonnée devant l'autel et est devenue connue dans le monde entier sous le hashtag viral #FiancéeSurLaTouche, elle a tout perdu : son fiancé, son commerce florissant, son excellente réputation et ses rêves. Pour oublier le premier anniversaire de ce jour fatidique, Sorcha raye des éléments sur sa liste des « Trente-et-une choses à faire avant le trente-et-un décembre » et travaille jour et nuit pour tenter de remettre sa vie sur les rails. Ce qui n'est pas sur sa liste ? Tomber amoureuse de son meilleur ami (et à un moment, même plus que ça) : la star du hockey Ryan Sawyer. Encore moins depuis qu'il est devenu la #BombeDuHockey. Les hashtags, Sorcha en a assez soupé pour une vie entière. Ryan Sawyer a filé de Swans Cove sur ses patins à glace dès la fin du lycée. Et depuis, il s'est appliqué à rayer le seul souhait sur sa liste qu'il pouvait contrôler. Il a bossé comme un dingue afin de s'assurer d'avoir l'excuse parfaite pour éviter Swans Cove : le hockey. Mais à cause d'une blessure à l'épaule, de rumeurs sur son avenir incertain au sein des Washington Angels et de l'anniversaire de sa mère, il est de retour pour un court séjour. Son attachée de presse a été on ne peut plus claire : Ryan doit faire profil bas et éviter les ennuis, sinon il risque de perdre sa place dans l'équipe. Mais il n'arrive pas à oublier Sorcha, la rousse qui le connaît mieux que personne, même mieux que son psy. Ryan n'était pas là quand elle avait le plus besoin de lui, et à cause de ça, elle a peut-être envie de le découper en morceaux avec ses ciseaux de couture, mais… Il pourrait peut-être juste passer lui dire bonjour ? Lorsque l'ancien #FiancéEnCavale de Sorcha devient le prochain Bachelor, le célibataire le plus convoité du pays, le public s'intéresse de nouveau à elle. Cette fois, Ryan ne prendra pas ses jambes à son cou. Même quand Sorcha laisse échapper à la télévision nationale que Ryan et elle rayent des éléments sur leurs soi-disant « Listes du bonheur »… ensemble. Être sous le feu des projecteurs jouera-t-il enfin en faveur de Sorcha et Ryan ? Ou leurs passés — et leurs hashtags — entraveront-ils leur bonheur ? Une histoire d'amour et de seconde chance qui se déroule pendant la période des fêtes dans une petite ville sur la côte est du Maryland : avec plein de rires et de moments qui font chaud au cœur (ainsi que quelques-uns torrides), des listes, des dynamiques familiales, un chat têtu et un chien adopté dans un refuge.
