NOVEDADES

The Sharaf family is the picture of success. Prosperous, rich, happy. They came to this country as refugees with nothing more than the clothes on their backs. And now, after years of hard work, they live in the most exclusive neighborhood, their growing family attending the most prestigious schools. Zorah, the eldest daughter, is the apple of her father’s eye. When an unthinkable tragedy strikes, everyone is left reeling and the family is thrust into the court of public opinion. There is talk that behind closed doors the Sharafs’ happy household was anything but. Did the Sharaf family achieve the American dream? Or was the image of the model immigrant family just a façade?

En el universo underground y artístico de Berlín, donde el techno y las drogas palpitan en antiguos almacenes atravesados por las guerras del siglo XX, Nila lucha por entender quién quiere ser. Nacida en Alemania de padres afganos, criada en viviendas públicas cubiertas de esvásticas y magnetizada por la filosofía, la fotografía y el sexo, Nila se mueve en una huida hacia adelante dando forma a un Bildungsroman intoxicado y poético. Aber construye un mundo implacable en un Berlín mugriento y desenreda historias y legados con una pluma hábil que respeta y admite la autodestrucción como herramienta efectiva de autodescubrimiento.

"We're way more than friends, Jessie." "Blake―" "But no worries. I'll just sit tight until you figure that out." Hosting her brother's wedding for an MVP guest list is the challenge of Jess Canning's life. Already the family screw-up, she can't afford to fail at this, too. Especially after the colossal mistake she made with the best man during a weak moment last spring. Nobody―absolutely nobody―can find out about that, and there will not be a repeat. Absolutely not. No matter how devastatingly sexy his smile, he's a giant manchild who's never been serious in his life. And if Jess wants to prove herself to her family, serious is what she has to get. For Blake Riley, this wedding is a gift from fate itself. The girl he has his eye on is the maid of honor, and he's the best man? Let the games begin. So what if Jess is giving him a little―fine, a lot―of resistance? He just needs to convince the stubborn blonde that he's really a good boy with a bad rap. Beneath the flirty jokes and goofy smile, he's got layers―even if Jess doesn't want to see them. Luckily, every professional hockey player knows that you've got to make an effort if you want to score. And Jess is just the girl he wants to win.
