Catalina Martin est désespérée. Pour ne pas arriver seule au mariage de sa soeur, auquel assisteront son ex et sa fiancée, elle a assuré à toute sa famille en Espagne qu'elle viendrait accompagnée de son petit ami américain. Sauf que ce petit ami n'existe pas. Et voilà que ce qui n'était qu'un mensonge inoffensif est à présent hors de contrôle. Quatre semaines avant les festivités, elle ne voit aucune issue. C'est alors qu'Aaron Blackford, un collègue qui l'a toujours exaspérée, se propose pour le rôle. Plutôt mourir que de passer un week-end avec ce type aussi froid que l'hiver new-yorkais ! Pourtant, à mesure que l'échéance se rapproche, Catalina doit se rendre à l'évidence : Aaron est sa seule chance de s'en tirer la tête haute.
From the author of the Goodreads Choice Award winner The Spanish Love Deception, the eagerly anticipated follow-up featuring Rosie Graham and Lucas Martín, who are forced to share a New York apartment. Rosie Graham has a problem. A few, actually. She just quit her well paid job to focus on her secret career as a romance writer. She hasnt told her family and now has terrible writers block. Then, the ceiling of her New York apartment literally crumbles on her. Luckily she has her best friend Linas spare key while shes out of town. But Rosie doesnt know that Lina has already lent her apartment to her cousin Lucas, who Rosie has been stalking--for lack of a better word--on Instagram for the last few months. Lucas seems intent on coming to her rescue like a Spanish knight in shining armour. Only this one strolls around the place in a towel, has a distracting grin, and an irresistible accent. Oh, and he cooks. Lucas offers to let Rosie stay with him, at least until she can find some affordable temporary housing. And then he proposes an outrageous experiment to bring back her literary muse and meet her deadline: Hell take her on a series of experimental dates meant to jump-start her romantic inspiration. Rosie has nothing to lose. Her silly, online crush is totally under control--but Lucass time in New York has an expiration date, and six weeks may not be enough, for either her or her deadline.
A disgraced soccer exec reluctantly enlists the help of a retired soccer star in coaching a childrens team in this smalltown love story in the vein of Ted Lasso and It Happened One Summer --from the New York Times bestselling author of The Spanish Love Deception. Adalyn Reyes has spent years perfecting her daily routine: wake up at dawn, drive to the Miami Flames FC offices, try her hardest to leave a mark, go home, and repeat. But her routine is disrupted when a video of her in an altercation with the teams mascot goes viral. Rather than fire her, the teams owner--who happens to be her father--sends Adalyn to middle-of-nowhere North Carolina, where shes tasked with turning around the struggling local soccer team, the Green Warriors, as a way to redeem herself. Her plans crumble upon discovering that the players wear tutus to practice (impractical), keep pet goats (messy), and are terrified of Adalyn (counterproductive), and are nine-year-old kids. To make things worse, also in town is Cameron Caldani, goalkeeping prodigy whose presence is somewhat of a mystery. Cam is the perfect candidate to help Adalyn, but after one very unfortunate first encounter involving a rooster, Cams leg, and Adalyns bumper, hes also set on running her out of town. But banishment is not an option for Adalyn. Not again. Helping this ragtag childrens team is her road to redemption, and she is playing the long game. With or without Cams help.
