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. But it’s still not enough for Trevor. He yearns for Sarah, despite her college boyfriend, despite her “not yet”s, despite the way she keeps pulling away the moment it starts to feel truly magical.
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…
In order to protect her kingdom from the wrath of a vengeful goddess, Princess Candra must remain locked inside a tower for seven years. Seven long years without a friend―or a lover―by her side. And shut inside the tower with her? A Fellian, the enemy of her people, a fearsome warrior race complete with wings and claws and fangs. Nemeth is terrifying, cruel, and disturbingly magnetic. Candra should kill him for his supplies, but she’s desperate for his company…and his touch.
As time inside the unchanging tower rolls on, Candra uncovers the man behind the stony facade. And when their tenure hits an unexpected snag, Candra and Nemeth are forced to make a difficult choice. They’ll need to face an outside world they no longer recognize, one that threatens their lives and their surprising love.
Un murcielago, un grillo, una araña, dos conejos, un búho, un gato, un cuervo y un zorro son los integrantes del club secreto de Greenwood. Tan secreto que si buscas su cabaña nunca la encontrarás, salvo si recibes una invitación. ¿Preparado para la aventura?
«Mi pequeña, mamá quiere contarte por qué vuela tanto, por qué no estoy tanto tiempo como quisiera en nuestro nido.
Volar no siempre ha sido fácil si naces mujer.
Con este cuento quiero recordarte lo importante que es aprender a volar alto y que el cielo sea un lugar seguro para tu vuelo.»
A través de un cuento emotivo, Marina Marroquí teje un relato protagonizado por tres generaciones de aves. Además de un homenaje a todas aquellas mujeres que lucharon por alzar el vuelo y no pudieron, este libro es también un inspirador mensaje de empoderamiento dirigido a las niñas: para llegar a lo más alto, no hay que rendirse nunca.
