How to Fall in Love: A Novel
by Dalma Heyn Richard Marek&“Move over, Romeo and Juliet, Burton and Taylor, even Baby and Johnny—here come Evan and Eve! . . . a daringly simple, utterly fresh love story.&”—Linda Gottlieb, producer of Dirty Dancing When Cupid&’s job is deemed expendable (as the heavens are downsizing), he manages to buy a little bit of time by asking for one more chance to show that he can orchestrate a love for the ages . . . but the clock is ticking. Down on Earth, former ballerina Eve Golyakovsky is living a quiet life in Vermont, tending to her maple sugar business. She dearly loved her late husband, a famed choreographer, but more as a mentor than as a spouse. She&’s never been truly touched by romance, and she&’s okay with that. Evan Cameron is a well-known anthologist with a penchant for fine automobiles and commitment-free affairs. Love has threatened to visit him on occasion, but he&’s always managed to keep it from taking up residence. When Eve and Evan meet, there&’s something almost otherworldly about their connection. But when their budding romance is tested, old habits and new fears seem likely to choke this flower off at the roots. A love this intense might be more than either of them can handle—and more than even Cupid can nurture . . . At once heartwarming and wise, funny and touching, How to Fall in Love &“has its lovestruck eyes wide open. There is Divine Intervention in this beautifully written story, but the outcome is up to the mortals. A sexy and soulful novel&” (Joanna Gleason, Tony Award-winning actor). &“As fast-paced as a good thriller, and as riveting.&”—David Morrell, New York Times bestselling author

A semanas de que ese día llegue, su problema ha pasado de grande a gigantesco. Por lo que más ama en el mundo, su hija Carolina, Matías está a punto de quedar en la calle. Tanto su casa como su negocio están muy cerca de ser liquidados por la falta de la hipoteca, pero ni aun así él deja de promocionar lo que podría ser una carrera deportiva brillante... si no fuera por la falta de recursos. Hasta el día que recibe una oferta irresistible.

Eres para mí (Quinteto de la muerte #2)
by Sandra HeysNueva entrega de la serie Quinteto de la Muerte: Te metes con una y te metes con todas. Dicen que veinte años no es nada, pero para ellos, diez fueron más que suficientes... Lo único que Adriana y Juan tienen en común es su mejor amiga, Isabel. Y que trabajan en el mismo taller de mecánica automotriz, propiedad de la familia Soublette. Porque, por supuesto, considerar sus eternas discusiones como algo en común es exagerar. Ser constantemente apabullada por su perfecta hermana y sus no menos perfectos padres convierte a Adriana en una mujer en apariencia fuerte y guerrera, pero muy acomplejada por su, según ella, menos que agradable apariencia. Si a esa mezcla le sumamos a la hermosísima mejor amiga, el resultado es un camino al desastre. El siempre tímido y silencioso Juan se siente cada vez más lejano a conseguir lo único que ha deseado toda su vida: a Adriana. El gran problema es que ella no le habla si no es para pedirle cosas relacionadas con su trabajo. Y él no le habla. Punto. No es que no quiera, es que no puede. Su naturaleza introvertida le juega en contra cada vez que tiene la oportunidad de entablar una conversación con ella, y cuando abre su boca solo salen monosílabos. Hasta la noche en que, tras una explosiva discusión, descubren que tienen mucho más en común de lo que ellos mismos sospechan.
