Totul era bine si frumos, pana cand sa isi faca aparitia barbatul misterios si foarte increzut, care crede ca le stie pe toate si care are totul la picioare. Nu spun ca nu este frumos, pentru ca este superb. Dar toata viata mea s-a schimbat de cand am devenit angajata lui. Imi cunosteam cu usurinta sentimentele, si nu "aveam ochi" decat pentru Jacob, si eram sigura de ceea ce simteam. Eram fericita, aveam o familie frumoasa si unita, si nu sufeream niciodata. Bine, doar atunci cand mama a murit, insa nu in acelasi mod cand eram in preajma "sefului meu". Stie cum sa-ti dea lumea peste cap, sa te faca sa nu mai stii de tine, si sa nu mai fii sigura de ceea ce simti. Nu stiu ce simt pentru el, ce e cu mine cand sunt in preajma lui, si habar nu am de ce ma comport asa. Dar cert e ca are o influenta negativa asupra mea, si a intregului meu corp, avand puterea sa ma transforme in alta persoana. Datorita lui ajung sa rostesc din nou cuvintele "Te iubesc", sa sufar enorm si sa vars o mie de lacrimi. Oare am sa rezist vietii asteia? Putem sa trecem impreuna peste toate lucrurile intamplate-unele bune, unele ingrozitoare-sau o sa ne despartim?

I, Lois Mai Reynolds, am all kinds of clumsy. I fall over flat surfaces. I drop expensive vases, and miraculously find ways to trip over thin air. Not a day has passed by when I'm not wearing a Band-Aid for some kind of accident that I've endured, and it's stooped to the level now that my parents call me King Kong and joke about having warning signs and safety tape around my bedroom door. Once upon a time, I used to think of that as a laughing matter, but not anymore. Not since I almost killed my crush's mom. Suddenly, being compared to a giant gorilla of mass destruction doesn't actually seem that crazy. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED #11 Romance

Drew Rangle, quarterback of his high school football team, is dating gorgeous cheerleader, Elle Martin. When Drew's parents ask Elle's full-figured twin sister, Em, to stay with Drew during their month long vacation, Drew discovers more about himself than he ever wanted to know.

Jocul poate fi de atat de multe feluri. Poate fi unul nevinovat, sau o inscenare haotica in toata regula. Poate fi unul distractiv, ludic, sau o adevarata lovitura nimicitoare. Poate fi un joc corect, sau unul al naibii de murdar. Pot exista reguli, sau nu. Si nu in ultimul rand, poti sa alegi daca vrei sa fii pradatorul sau prada. Totul pana aici e clar si perfect rational. Dar partea cea mai grea vine atunci cand realizezi ca ai pierdut si nici macar nu stiai ca ai inceput sa joci.

O femeie. Un bărbat. Și multe prezervative.

"Y-you," she stuttered, staring at the handsome man sitting on the sleek black throne, "you're..." He rolled his eyes, waving his hand impatiently and said, "Hades. Come on, say it with me. Ha-des." "Hades," Ariel breathed out, still not believing the sight before her. Every picture she had seen of the gods had not depicted Hades' beauty. The god sitting before her was not a crusty old man with a white beard; no, he was a Calvin Klein model. "Yes," Hades clasped his hands together and grimaced, "the God of Death and riches; that's me." Ariel nodded, still refusing to believe but knowing she had to and Hades' grimace turned even bitter, "And you, darling, will be staying with me for quite some time." ~*~ Cover: _nymphomaniac Published: 8/6/14
