Sally Thorne Knihy

Lucy Huttonová a Joshua Templeman se nemají rádi. Není to jen tak nějaké obyčejné nepřátelství nebo prostá nesnášenlivost. Nenávidí se celým srdcem a nebojí se dát si to pořádně najevo, a přitom jsou nuceni obývat společnou kancelář vydavatelského domu. Lucy nemůže vystát Joshuovu upjatost a perfekcionismus, on zas pohrdá jejím spontánním přístupem a bláznivě barevným oblečením. Teď se však ještě ke všemu dozvídají, že jeden z nich má být povýšen. Bitva se rozhořívá naplno a Lucy je odhodlaná nevzdat se, i když se jí tahle hra začíná vymykat z rukou. Možná že k Joshuovi zas tak velkou nenávist necítí. Možná ani on k ní. Možná je od vášnivé nevraživosti k lásce překvapivě blízko.

From the USA Today bestselling author of The Hating Game and 99 Percent Mine comes a clever and funny story about a muscular, tattooed man hired as an assistant to two elderly women, all while under the watchful eye of a beautiful retirement home manager. Ruthie Midona has dedicated six years to the Providence Luxury Retirement Villa, caring for residents and maintaining the property, while neglecting her own youth and beauty. Her life takes a turn when she meets Teddy Prescott, the carefree son of the property developer who just acquired the retirement center. Teddy, known for his partying and lack of ambition, is forced by his father to stay at the retirement home and work to earn his keep. Ruthie sees this as an opportunity to offload Teddy onto her two eccentric residents, who have a reputation for scaring away assistants. However, Teddy proves to be a match for the feisty women, charming the entire villa and bringing laughter to the residents. As he helps Ruthie reconnect with her youthful spirit, she discovers that Teddy's father plans to sell the retirement home, putting everything she values at risk. This hilarious and warm novel is a joyous celebration of love and community, perfect for fans of the author's previous works.

Now, she returns with a delightful romantic comedy featuring a twin sister and brother vying for an inheritance, complicated by a sexy best friend. Darcy Barrett has conducted a global survey of men and concludes that none compare to Tom Valeska, her brother Jamie's best friend.

Darcy plans to escape as renovations begin, but her plans change when Tom, now single and a house-flipper, shows up at her door with tools in hand. Faced with her brother's questionable design choices, Darcy finds herself drawn to Tom's charm and looks, reigniting her passion for photography. As sparks fly, she realizes that the one percent of Tom’s heart that was once reserved for Jamie may not be enough anymore. This time, Darcy is determined to claim Tom Valeska for herself.

Ruthie is de tijdelijke manager van de Providence Luxury Retirement Villa en is van plan om de nieuwe eigenaar te laten zien wat ze kan.
