NOVEDADES

Catalina No es complicado hacer de dama de honor en la boda de mi hermana. Ni siquiera teniendo en cuenta que se casa con mi ex. Lo que es realmente difícil es fingir que me cae bien el padrino. Luke Darling puede parecer amable y atractivo, pero por mucho que se esfuerce no me hará cambiar de opinión. Debo hacerle entender que para mí solo es el mejor amigo de mi ex. Aunque, en secreto, empiezo a desear haberlo conocido primero a él. Luke Ser el padrino de boda no debería tener complicación alguna salvo por un pequeño detalle: he pasado tanto tiempo evitando a la ex de mi mejor amigo que no pensé qué ocurriría si empezaba a desear su compañía. Catalina Martínez solo estará en Lake Wisteria durante los días que dure la boda, pero que se marche en enero no va a impedir que intente conquistarla. Conseguir que salga conmigo sería algo así como un milagro navideño, sin embargo, estoy decidido a que se quede conmigo.

Over two decades, William Curtis and Russell Windham have worked to show that classical architecture can embody the same attention to context and custom approach to design often ascribed to more modern movements, underscoring how versatile classical ideals and details can be. In styles reminiscent of the great Tudor manor houses of England to quaint symmetrical clapboard farmhouses, quintessentially Mission-style haciendas, and of course neo-Georgian mansions, the firm builds houses with a faithful adherence to historical detail, proportion, and materials that makes them stand out as truly world-class designers. With interiors as much a part of their core practice as exteriors, this firm is able to carry through an integrity of vision—graciously curved banisters, warm and inviting mantels, detailed brickwork, and coffered ceilings—that makes every project feel truly whole, complete. Yet a strong sense still pervades every featured home that they are organized to support modern lifestyles, taking the best of the past and adapting it to create homes that are truly comfortable and functional for today’s families.

Esta obra de Bienvenida Mendoza es de lectura obligatoria si le interesa la relación literatura-política y los derechos de las mujeres. Es un análisis clasista y de género de la novela Don Quijote de la Mancha, en la que sus personajes femeninos son reflejo fiel de la realidad de las mujeres de la España de entonces. Muy válido para la realidad de millones de mujeres en el mundo capitalista hoy. La autora destaca la vigencia del Quijote. Desnuda la doble moral de las clases gobernantes en relación a las mujeres; la cultura de vagancia y proverbial pasión de la nobleza, por vivir del trabajo ajeno, exactamente como las “modernas” monarquía europeas en el siglo XXI.

"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.
