„Jimenez igazi tehetség.” – Emily Henry, New York Times bestsellerszerző„Tele őszintén kacagtató pillanatokkal.” – USA Today „Hihetetlen élmény volt ezt a könyvet olvasni, azonnal magával ragadott, és az elejétől a végéig teljesen lekötött.” – The Escapist Könyvblog A sorsunk összefonódik, még ha különbözik is. Egy merész fogadás, egy ínyenc, grillsajtos szendvics és egy kis kecskesimogatás után Alexis Montgomery világa a feje tetejére állt. Az ok: Daniel Grant, egy nevetségesen dögös asztalos, aki tíz évvel fiatalabb nála, és a világ leglazább pasija – a kifinomult, városi nő, Alexis totális ellentéte. A köztük lévő kémia mégis tagadhatatlan. Bár az ultragazdag szülei azt szeretnék, hogy vigye tovább a világhírű sebészcsalád örökségét, Alexis nem vágyik sem dicsőségre, sem hírnévre. Neki megfelel, hogy egyszerű sürgősségi orvos legyen. Minél több időt tölt Daniellel és a férfi kisvárosi ismerőseivel, annál tisztábban látja, mi az, ami igazán fontos. Ám ha hagyja, hogy kapcsolatukból több legyen egy rövid távú kalandnál, azzal hátat fordít a családjának, és lemond arról a lehetőségről, hogy emberek ezreinek segítsen. Danielt nem vonhatja be a saját mindennapjaiba, ugyanakkor nem tud lemondani a mellette megtalált boldogságról sem. Nem is különbözhetnének jobban egymástól, így Alexisnek el kell döntenie, mit választ. A USA Today és New York Times bestsellerszerző Abby Jimenez egy újabb regénnyel jelentkezik, amely méltón képviseli a romantikus regény műfaját. Egyszerre vicces és komoly, nagyon érzékenyen és hozzáértőn kezel egy sok nőt érintő problémát, teszi mindezt kivételes arányérzékkel – mondhatni, majdhogynem tökéletes. Jimenez legfülledtebb és legvarázslatosabb műve.” – Book Reporter „Gazdagon szőtt, léleksimogató romantika.” – Publishers Weekly „Tökéletes romantikus történet: szívmelengető, szívszorító, humoros, és egyszerűen jó elmerülni benne.” – The Bashful Bookworm „Eredeti, vonzó, és garantáltan könnyekre fakaszt!” – What’s Better Than Books

“I’m not interested,” I said, putting the eight ball cleanly into the side pocket. “I don’t like betting on other human beings. She’s not an object.”

         Doug shook his head at me. “At least try to have fun.”

         “Oh yeah? When’s the last time you hooked up with someone?” Doug asked. “It’s been what? Four months since Megan?”

         “I’m not looking to hook up. Thanks though.” 

         He shrugged, pulling out his keys. “A hundred bucks.”

         “And what about you? You’re not in on this bet?”

         He shook his head. “That’s not my thing.”

         “No? Well, what if I left with you? Would you win the money?”

         He wrinkled his forehead at me. “I don’t follow.”

         “I think I’m going to leave anyway. You could walk out with me. Win the bet.”

         He smiled. “You’d do that?”

         He glanced over at the men across the room.

         Carhartt Jacket was holding a guitar.

         Daniel’s eyes came back to mine, and a smile played at the corners of his lips. “If we do it, we split the money.”

         I turned to Liz. “Liz, on a scale from one to serial killer, how dangerous is this man? Am I safe to walk out into a dark parking lot with him?”

         She smiled. “Daniel is the only guy I’d leave this bar with.”

         “I don’t know how I feel about that,” he said. “You’re my cousin.”

         She laughed. “He’s harmless.”

         “And he’ll keep up his end of the bargain and pay me?” I asked.

         She dried a tumbler with a rag. “Even if those idiots don’t keep up their end of the bargain and pay him, he’ll pay you. It’s the kind of person he is.”

“I’m going to pretend that you just said something really funny and I’m going to laugh. Then we can wrap this up.”

         He put a hand to his chin. “What kind of laugh?”

         “Yeah. In theory whatever I’m saying to you has to be good enough to make you leave with me after only knowing me for five minutes. It’s going to have to look pretty convincing. I’m thinking Julia Roberts?”

         This actually did make me laugh, which made him laugh—and it was adorable. His warm golden-green eyes creased at the corners and it lit his whole face.

         God, he had a nice smile. Really nice. Something about it darted me right in the heart, took a little of my breath away.

         “Well, you don’t steal a hoodie and not wear it. Otherwise it’s just another senseless crime.”

         The idea of her wearing my hoodie made my heart pound.

         “You know, I have a theory,” I said, switching the phone to my other ear.

         “I think you took that hoodie because you wanted a reason to come back here.”

         Turns out, it was the right move.

         I’d had chemistry with other women, but I’d never experienced animal magnetism before. It’s the kind of thing that’s unmistakable when it’s happening—and it happened with her. The same as last time, only stronger. The sexual tension between the two of us was like a sunflower turned to the sky. I’d felt it even when she was gone, I realized. Like my body was looking for her even though I didn’t know where she was. It was a shift in gravity. Two bodies in a hammock, or an old mattress that dips in the middle. I could feel us rolling toward each other.

         It’s the kind of pull that’s easier to give in to than it is to get out of.

The power she had over me terrified me. But it also gave me clarity.

         There is a peace in knowing the one thing you can’t live without. It simplifies all things. There was her, and then there was everything and everyone else. And only she really mattered. It was easy to know it.

         I hovered over her, kissing her softly. I brushed her wet hair off her forehead, and she gazed up at me with those beautiful brown eyes, smiling, and I couldn’t not say it. It came out like an exhale, like something that was always there, only now I was finally giving it a name and breathing it into the universe and acknowledging that it existed.

Don’t let them decide the life you’re going to live. You only get one. 

“Just keep her laughing,”” Doug said. “When a woman laughs, her eyes are closed more. She won’t notice how ugly you are.”

“Grace costs you nothing. My grandma used to say it. She especially liked to say it to herself when I was being a little shit.” 

Sometimes what you have to give is enough. Even if it’s a rock instead of a diamond.
