We've all heard the tales of good and bad, the tales of innocent deceit and her hero, the tales that despite their nature, show us the beauty in contrast. But it's the tales of pure evil that get swept under the rug. The tales of deception, where cruelty is rewarded. The tales that have you questioning who the real villain of the story is. There's a simple philosophy to most thing in life; two wrongs 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 make a right. So what ensues when you put two of the worst kinds of people together?

DISPONIBILE IN LIBRERIA E ONLINE CON Sperling&Kupfer 🤍 la versione cartacea presenta 2 capitoli bonus e qualche piccola differenza da questa di Wattpad. Ricchi e intelligentissimi, i fratelli Lively - Hades, Apollo, Hermes, Aphrodite e Athena - sono i più popolari di Yale: nessuno osa avvicinarli, ma tutti li conoscono e li guardano da lontano; ogni venerdì sera organizzano quelli che sono diventati famosi come i Giochi degli Dèi, in cui all'avversario non si riserva nessuna pietà; batterli è impossibile. Quando Haven arriva al campus come matricola, rimane affascinata da loro, anche se un po' impaurita, finché Hades si accorge di lei... L'amore che scoppia tra i due è irrefrenabile, ma si rivela ben presto una vera e propria discesa all'Inferno; i giochi a Yale, infatti, sono solo una minuscola parte di quello che nascondono i Lively: la posta in palio è alta e Haven ancora non sa che la pedina principale della partita è proprio lei. Un amore indimenticabile, una storia intrisa di mitologia. 🏆Wattys 2022 Winner - New Adult 🏆

COMPLETA. Il cappuccio nero sempre sulla testa, quelle iridi smeraldo nascoste nell'ombra e quei tatuaggi che si intravedono sulle nocche. Inchiostro che va sotto pelle, disegni che si intersecano in un labirinto da cui gli occhi di Hazel non riescono a fuggire. Sono intrappolati in quei simboli in bianco e nero che fanno da corazza a un'anima misteriosa come quella di un ragazzo che è capitato all'improvviso sulla sua strada. È di poche parole, ma il suo sguardo magnetico scava dentro togliendole il respiro. Hazel non si aspetta di imbattersi in questo turbolento tornado che sembra portare domande, dubbi e incomprensioni. È una ragazza sognatrice -forse anche un po' troppo- i piani precisi in testa e la timidezza che indossa quasi fosse un secondo strato di pelle. Si aspetta tutto fuorché ritrovarsi ad ammettere che, effettivamente, quegli smeraldi l'hanno spogliata del velo di insicurezza. Si fida, sa che un suo abbraccio al sapore di menta e tabacco arriverà... ma non tiene conto del fatto che non lo conosce abbastanza. Abbastanza per aiutarlo a scappare da un passato che nasconde sotto le sue felpe nere e nei ciuffi corvini. Solo che, come dice Wilde, gli amori grandi sono destinati ad essere distrutti dalla loro stessa intensità.
