      Aureliana non è mai stata la ragazza più popolare della scuola; anzi, tutti la prendevano in giro per le sue origini italiane e i pranzetti cucinati dalla mamma che si portava da casa. Adesso, a trent'anni, è decisamente cambiata: si fa chiamare Anna e si è trasformata in un bocconcino tutto curve con splendidi capelli, al punto che quando si presenta alla riunione degli ex alunni della sua scuola, nessuno la riconosce. Finché l'adolescente timida che è stata un tempo non torna a farsi sentire e Anna, perso il coraggio di portare a termine il suo piano di vendetta, lascia la festa. Poi, però, il fato ci mette lo zampino, e dopo la riunione la sua strada si incrocia spesso con quella di James, che alle superiori era la sua cotta senza speranza. Ancora oggi Anna non riesce a credere che quell'aspetto fantastico non nasconda impronunciabili lati oscuri, visto che lui, dopo tutto, era amico dei bulli che la tormentavano. Così dai loro incontri casuali e sempre più frequenti nasce un rapporto di amore e odio. Ma cosa si nasconde davvero sotto le apparenze di entrambi?

      In this heartfelt, witty enemies-to-lovers romance by international bestseller Mhairi McFarlane, two journalists must fake a relationship to secure a major story. Bel has just joined the Manchester office of a national newspaper after her award-winning podcast, but her small team, which includes the ambitious Aaron and new intern Connor, gets off to a rocky start. Connor, a thirtysomething man who left his seemingly perfect life in London to pursue his dream of becoming a reporter, feels his internship is another poor decision after a bad first impression with Bel. Yet, beneath their initial hostility, Connor finds Bel to be the first spark of excitement he's felt in ages. When Bel uncovers a significant story, she enlists Connor’s help, and they must convincingly portray themselves as a couple in love. The stakes are high; if they fail, Bel risks losing the story and the chance for justice for its sources. As they navigate their charade, Bel and Connor begin to question whether their feelings are genuine or simply part of the act.

      +++Aufwendig gestaltete limitierte Erstauflage mit Farbschnitt, nur solange der Vorrat reicht+++ Wie behältst du deinen Traum-Mann, wenn ihn auch alle anderen wollen? Bestseller-Autorin Mhairi McFarlane erzählt in ihrem hinreißenden, lustigen und klugen Liebesroman, was nach dem Happy End passiert: sehr authentisch und voller echter Gefühle. Edie hatte mit Schauspieler Elliot Schluss gemacht, weil Nottingham und Hollywood einfach nicht zusammenpassen. Doch als er überraschend an Weihnachten vor ihrer Tür steht, schlägt ihr Herz Purzelbäume. Ein Blick genügt, und beide wissen, dass sie es noch einmal miteinander versuchen müssen. Dummerweise trennt sie nicht nur ein Ozean, wenn Elliot in Hollywood ist: Die Klatschpresse verfolgt sie unerbittlich, und als Edies Freunde zur Story werden, wird es richtig hässlich. Zudem stellt Edies Chef den charmanten Declan ein, der immer zur Stelle ist, wenn sie einen Rat braucht. Bald fragt Edie sich, ob sie und Elliot wirklich ein Märchen sind – oder eher eine Warnung für alle, die einen Traum in die Wirklichkeit zwingen wollen? Authentischer Liebesroman mit echten Gefühlen, Situationskomik und einem Hauch Glamour. Die Geschichte von Edie und Elliot wird hier zu Ende erzählt, während die Romane unabhängig voneinander gelesen werden können.
