L'ultima cosa che Ronnie vorrebbe è trascorrere le vacanze estive con il padre. Non lo vede da tre anni, da quando cioè se n'è andato di casa per trasferirsi in una sperduta cittadina del North Carolina. Ronnie è furiosa, ma sua madre ha deciso così e lei non ci può fare niente.

Un romanzo intenso e commovente, da cui è tratto l'omonimo film con Miley Cyrus.

Bon sang, mais qu'est-ce que je foutais dans une salle réservée aux femmes ? J'étais venu à l'hôpital pour me faire enlever mes quatre dents de sagesse et je me souvenais parfaitement avoir été placé dans une salle remplie de mecs. Qu'est-ce qu'ils étaient devenus ?

Et ramolli aussi...

"I'm Jaz Parks. CIA assassin. Black Belt. Belly dancer at the Corpus Christi Winter Festival." "The last is cover for my latest mission: retrieve a vital piece of biotechnology by killing the maniac who stole it. The thief is not your run-of-the-mill nut job, either. He's Chien-Lung, an obsessive vamp who's invulnerable while wearing his armour - which is constantly." "Then there are the reavers, ancient fiends who murder innocents and eat their souls. Only I can sense them. So it's not long before they want me dead, dead, dead." "And did I mention the nightmares? They're not your garden variety sit-up-and-screamers. These suckers may actually kill me before the reavers do."--Back cover
