Race car mechanic Andressa "Andi" Amaro has one rule—no dating drivers. With a good reason behind the rule, she has no plans on breaking it.

Carrick Ryan is the bad boy of Formula One. With a face and body that melts panties on sight, and an Irish lilt that leaves women on their knees, begging for more. He races hard and parties harder. The youngest driver to ever sign with F1, he’s still at the top of his game five years later, breaking hearts on and off the tracks.

When Andi is offered her dream job working in the glamorous world of F1, she leaves her home in Brazil, positive she can handle working for Carrick. But she’s not prepared for the off-the-chart sparks that fly the moment they meet.

Now, Andi has a crush on the one man she can’t have, and her resolve is about to be put to the test, because Carrick has decided he wants Andi, and he plans on testing her to the very limit…

“Deny it all you want, but you know it’s true. You want me to fuck you.”
“And you want to fuck me,” I fire back.
“Sure I do. I’m not the one denying it here.” 

He lifts his hand from my waist to cup my cheek, 

his thumb touching dangerously close to my lips. “So what do you say?”
“To what?”
“Fucking.”
“I’d say you’re seriously overconfident about it.”
He throws his head back on a deep laugh. It makes me glow inside.
A smile is still touching his eyes, when he says, “

You say that now. It’ll be a different story afterwards.”

“She’s beauty for my ashes. And I’m hope for her heartache.” — Cole Danzer.

I don’t know what makes a great love story. Is it that instant attraction when boy meets girl? The passionate kisses and the fairy-tale ending? Or is it a lifetime of tragedy, paid in advance, for a few stolen moments of pure bliss? The pain and the suffering that, in the end, you can say are worth it for having found the missing piece of your soul?

The answer is: I don’t know. I don’t know what makes a great love story. I only know what makes my love story. I only know that finding Cole when I did, when Emmy and I were running from a nightmare, was the only thing that saved me. That saved us. He was more broken than I was, but somehow we took each other’s shattered pieces and made a whole. If that is what makes a great love story, if that is what makes an epic romance, then mine…ours is the greatest of them all.

 Trama 

Perseguitata da incubi per via dell'omicidio del padre, Kat Lane, decide di affrontare le sue paure e decide di aiutare gli altri, attraverso l'insegnamento ai detenuti in una prigione di New York. Qui incontra l'arrogante Wesley Carter, che è bello quanto pericoloso, misterioso e acuto, ma con una reputazione che implica a mantenere le distanze. Come insegnante e studente, Kat e Carter sono costretti a lasciare le loro animosità da parte e imparare che non si deve mai giudicare un libro dalla sua copertina. Quando le barriere di Carter iniziano a sgretolarsi, Kat realizza che c'è molto di più dietro la maschera di questo ragazzo, fatta di rabbia e arroganza. Lasciandoli così ad affrontare un nuovo e pericoloso ostacolo: la loro innegabile attrazione l'uno per l'altra.

Quando Carter viene rilasciato e Kat continua a essere il suo tutore anche fuori dal carcere, gli ostacoli aumenteranno. Riusciranno a far evolvere il loro rapporto in qualcosa di più duraturo? La famiglia e gli amici di Kat accettaranno il suo passato? E la scoperta di Kat, del ruolo di Carter la notte in cui suo padre morì li unirà o li separerà per sempre?

Questo volume è uscito per la prima volta il 26 aprile 2010 (originariamente è stato pubblicato come fan fiction), ma il 9 giugno verrà ripubblicato! Giungerà in Italia grazie alla Fabbri col titolo "La materia dei sogni". Inoltre l'autrice, ha programmato l'uscita x quest'anno anche di A Measure of Love (A Pound of Flesh #1.5). Mentre, per il prossimo anno, è previsto An Ounce of Hope (A Pound of Flesh, #2). In teoria, ritornando all'uscita del primo volume, so che dovrebbe trattarsi di un'uscita contemporanea.

 A Pound of Flesh is an extraordinary book, packing an emotional punch on so many levels, beginning as the ultimate forbidden love story with an irresistible bad boy hero and a feisty, complex heroine, drawn together by a secret which connects them in way they cannot foresee. I, and the whole Headline Eternal team, were blown away by Sophie’s innate storytelling ability, her remarkable authentic American voice and the intensity of emotion, passion and true love she brings so vividly to life.

"Confess" di Colleen Hoover

  10 marzo 2015

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Colleen Hoover, a new novel about risking everything for love—and finding your heart somewhere between the truth and lies.

Auburn Reed has her entire life mapped out. Her goals are in sight and there’s no room for mistakes. But when she walks into a Dallas art studio in search of a job, she doesn’t expect to find a deep attraction to the enigmatic artist who works there, Owen Gentry.

For once, Auburn takes a risk and puts her heart in control, only to discover Owen is keeping major secrets from coming out. The magnitude of his past threatens to destroy everything important to Auburn, and the only way to get her life back on track is to cut Owen out of it.

The last thing Owen wants is to lose Auburn, but he can’t seem to convince her that truth is sometimes as subjective as art. All he would have to do to save their relationship is confess. But in this case, the confession could be much more destructive than the actual sin…
