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 🏆

They are the only family she knows and she's ready to kill everyone who tries to separate them. The Arteses will do anything to have her back, even if it means taking two lethal strangers into their family.

"Every step you take away from me only drives you closer to the brink of my madness. You belong to me, Winter. Any alternative reality or illusion you hope for- I will destroy them until your very existence is entwined with mine." -𝐈𝐯𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐞 Eighteen-year-old Winter has always been a quiet shadow, a shy spy avoiding the perils of the spotlight. But when she's tasked with stalking five powerful Heirs, her carefully crafted invisibility shatters. Her mission is clear: erase their scandals, track their every move, and never draw attention. Yet, when she crosses paths with Ivan Arcane-the ruthless heir to one of the world's most powerful empires-everything changes. At first, Ivan saw her as dull and dependent, an insignificant watcher in the crowd. A beautiful doll to be kept locked and safe somewhere- an innocence belonging nowhere near him or his world. But when she makes one fatal mistake, he uncovers the sharp, wild mind she's concealed beneath fragile masks of pink and purples. Now, Ivan is obsessed, determined to dismantle her defenses and claim her as his own. And In a world where power rules, Winter is no longer the Hunter in the game -she's Ivan's fixation, a prey to a predator and he'll stop at nothing to change the very narrative of the fairy tale so the villain gets the girl in the end.
