LIBRO EN INGLES - Consolation prize - Linda Kage

SINOPSIS:
Don’t you just hate it when someone destroys all your carefully made plans?
I mean, I had goals: college to graduate in one semester, a future I was working hard to reach, and an image of myself I wanted the world to see. My life was stacked into these precisely placed blocks. But then Colton Gamble came along and knocked them all askew.
I hated how he messed everything up, how he could hog all my attention whenever he was around, how he made my pulse quicken—but only because he ticked me off…not because I was attracted to him. Oh! And I hated how he knew how attractive he was too, the shallow, full of himself, doesn’t take no for an answer, too flirty, too cocky, extremely irritating jerk.

The boy had all the qualities that turned me off. Or so I thought.
One night he wasn’t quite the brainless, overconfident jerk I assumed he always was.
One night, he took care of me when I was at my lowest. He opened up to me and made me open up to him.
Now I’m learning maybe he’s not what I first thought he was. And maybe I’M not what I first thought I was. Maybe it’s okay to rearrange a couple of my perfectly set blocks. Maybe, just maybe, I’ll stop worrying about what I’m afraid everyone else will think and finally reach for something I really want. It’s possible some of my plans need to be destroyed, and Colton Gamble is exactly the kind of mess I need in my life.

What do you think? Should I give him a try?
Desperately seeking your advice,
Julianna Radcliffe

Serie Forbidden - Melody Anne

01-* BOUND /ATADA

SINOPSIS:

Jewell Weston es una chica de veinticuatro años que se encuentra desesperada y sin hogar. Hace dos años, dejó su trabajo para cuidar de su madre enferma y su hermano menor. Los gastos médicos incurridos por el cáncer que se llevó a su madre dos meses atrás le han arrebatado todo lo que su familia tenía y el estado le ha quitado a su hermano, quien ahora tiene diez años. La única manera de conseguir la tutela del niño es encontrando un lugar donde vivir y un puesto de trabajo.
Cuando una mujer vestida de cachemir y cubierta de perlas se acerca a ella alegando que puede cambiar su vida y le entrega una tarjeta con el nombre de la empresa Ceda de Control, la joven piensa que no tiene nada que perder si llama al número de teléfono. Tal vez esta sea la respuesta a sus plegarias; la manera de rescatar a su hermano pequeño de la horrible casa de acogida en la que se encuentra.
