In un battibaleno
by Martina Nealli Damon SuedeIn un battibaleno: l’amore non aspetta. Patch Hastle è cresciuto in tutta fretta: scappato a gambe levate dal paesello del Texas orientale che gli ha dato i natali, s’è fatto una vita a New York come modello e DJ e non s’è mai voltato indietro. Anche quando i suoi vengono improvvisamente a mancare, il ragazzo torna a casa con l’intenzione di sbolognare la fattoria al primo magnate del petrolio che passa e far fagotto più veloce della luce. Peccato che il testamento metta le redini in mano al miglior amico di suo padre, nonché peggior nemico di Patch. Tucker Biggs ha finito di andare a spasso per rodei: ha messo radici ed è diventato il guardiano-bracciante della fattoria degli Hastle. Sa bene che Patch lo detesta, ma quando il ragazzo ricompare in versione adulta, bello da impazzire, Tucker finisce per trasformare la rimpatriata in una bella lezione sull’esperienza e sui desideri. È un bel gioco se dura poco, e sia Patch che Tucker sanno già che questo finirà in un battibaleno: appena venduta la fattoria se ne andranno ciascuno per la sua strada e tanti saluti. Purtroppo, però, a ogni secondo che passa le corde che legano il cittadino tutto in tiro e il bifolco dai jeans consunti si stringono sempre di più… E se non vogliono farsi disarcionare, dovranno entrambi capire cos’è che conta davvero, e dovranno farlo alla svelta.
