Astrid Finke Pořadí knih (chronologicky)

Adrian Mole už dosáhl věku třicet devět a čtvrt roku, ale nezdá se, že by se ze svých dosavadních životních kotrmelců poučil. Je na tom dokonce tak, že si nemůže dovolit splácet hypotéku na loft ani dluhy na kreditních a nákupních kartách a musí se přestěhovat zpátky do Leicestershiru, do přestavěných vepřínů, kde sdílí dvojdomek s rodiči. Na živobytí si jakžtakž vydělává v antikvariátu, ovšem stále častější noční vstávání i další příznaky v něm vzbuzují obavy z nastupujících chorob... Má zkrátka plnou hlavu starostí, takže stačí jediný opilecký telefonát staré lásce Pandoře a Adrian začne přemýšlet, jestli to není právě ona, která ho teď jediná může zachránit...

When young Wynter Moorehawke returns to court with her dying father, but she finds her old home shadowed with fear. The king has become a violent despot, terrorizing those he once loved. His son and heir Alberon has fled into exile and now there are whispers everywhere of rebellion. Meanwhile, Alberon's half-brother Razi has been elevated to his throne. He struggles to meet his King's demands while remaining loyal to his beloved brother and to his friend-Wynter. Now, she must choose- her father or her dreams, her friend or her king, her duty... or her love.

Four weddings. Three disgruntled ex-boyfriends. Two very effective chicken fillet boob-enhancers. And one gorgeous man. It's tough being a bridesmaidWith less than an hour to go before her best friend, Grace, is to walk down the aisle, Evie is attempting to fulfil her most important bridesmaid role: to deposit the bride at the start-line at the appointed time. But with a bride famed for her chaotic sense of time, and the bride's daughter busy mashing Molton Brown into the expensive hotel carpet, minus underwear, the odds are stacked against her . . . At least she has her new 'chicken fillet' boob-enhancers to make her feel special. That is, until these are spotted poking over the top of her dress. So spotted by Jack - the most ruggedly attractive man Evie has ever laid eyes on. Evie is twenty-seven; a sparkly, down-to-earth journalist. She has never been in love and has started to fret that she never will be. Small wonder, then, that the prospect of being bridesmaid at no less than three impending weddings is one that fills her with trepidation. Things get worse when Evie learns that Jack is her friend Valentina's date. Valentina is beautiful, shallow and self-obsessed. Her dates tend to be mirror-images. Which can mean only one thing: Jack can't possibly be as good as he seems. But as they sit together talking late into the night, Evie finds herself yearning to believe he's all real.

Eine fesselnde Geschichte über Grace, die in ihrem Haus am Cape Code ein perfektes Leben führt, bis finanzielle Probleme ihres Mannes alles infrage stellen. Dies eröffnet ihr die Chance auf einen Neuanfang und die Verwirklichung ihrer eigenen Träume. Ideal für Fans von Maeve Binchy und Rosamunde Pilcher.
