Pero, ahora, Hannah ha decidido regresar a Los Ángeles, su ciudad natal, e instalarse en casa de Gabby, su mejor amiga. Una noche deciden salir y Hannah se reencuentra con Ethan, su amor de juventud. ¿Qué pasará si vuelve a casa con Gabby? ¿Y si se queda con Ethan? En realidades paralelas, Hannah vivirá las consecuencias de una y otra elección. Pero ¿puede una decisión aparentemente trivial cambiar el curso de nuestra vida?

Una interesante reflexión sobre el amor verdadero y el destino.

Partiendo de su amplia experiencia como mediadora, Teresa Arsuaga nos guía a través de un análisis profundo y accesible sobre los modos en que afrontamos los desacuerdos y las estrategias que podemos adoptar para convertirlos en oportunidades de progreso personal y social. Dividido en tres partes, este libro nos invita primero a reflexionar sobre las actitudes y reacciones más habituales con las que nos enfrentamos a los conflictos, muchas veces marcadas por la delegación de decisiones, la competitividad y la búsqueda de culpables. En la segunda parte, Arsuaga comparte herramientas clave para desarrollar una gestión más eficaz basada en un mayor control sobre la comunicación, las emociones y las percepciones. Finalmente, nos plantea un cambio cultural y de paradigma que nos permita ver el conflicto desde una óptica más colaborativa y menos reactiva. Una propuesta innovadora y práctica, con ejemplos de la vida real, referencias literarias y ensayísticas que enriquecen la exposición. Esta obra no solo es una guía para quienes buscan mejorar sus relaciones personales y profesionales, sino también una llamada a la reflexión sobre nuestra forma de interactuar con el mundo.

One final swim of the summer. Let’s make it last all night… Summer, 1994. Trevor can barely wrap his mind around the fact that he and his friends have graduated high school. And yet there’s no rush to get to college. He’s determined to live one night at a time. Riding shotgun from party to party, windows down, music up, his focus is entirely on his crush, the enigmatic girl in the driver’s seat. Will things ever go anywhere with Sarah? Maybe? Because Sarah has proposed a mission: They’re going to swim all the pools in town. Before long, they’re sneaking into backyards every night, splashing, floating, and loving every minute of it.

Things finally change when they learn about a natural pool hidden deep in the woods. It seems like just another spot to check off their summer bucket list. But once they get there, they realize that this place has a curious hold on them, and something very strange is happening…
