*** PUBLICADA POR NOVA CASA EDITORIAL - JULIO 2019 *** Dicen que nada pasa por casualidad, que cada persona llega a nuestra vida con un objetivo y nos trae un aprendizaje. Algunas se quedan por mucho tiempo a nuestro lado, otras, solo un poco y luego siguen su camino. Lo cierto es que todos dejan una huella que, algunas veces, es imborrable; y cuando esa persona ya no está, el vacío se hace inmenso y cuesta seguir. Rafael ha dado todo por amor, ha entregado tanto de sí que siente que se ha quedado sin nada. Lo único que le queda es el vacío que deja la ausencia de alguien a quien se ama más que a uno mismo; los recuerdos, que a la vez que reconfortan, duelen; las preguntas sin respuestas; y los sentimientos contradictorios a los que el abandono te enfrenta. Cuando las historias de amor fracasan, llueven los «quizá». Quizá si se hubieran encontrado en otros tiempos. Quizá si Rafael no se hubiera entregado tanto. Quizá si Carolina hubiera abierto los ojos a tiempo, quizá si su falta de autoestima no la hubiese destruido. Quizá si el amor hubiera vencido al egoísmo. Quizás, y solo quizá, la historia hubiera sido diferente. Lo cierto es que años después de un adiós inesperado, la herida sigue abierta en el corazón de Rafael, quien no puede continuar sin cerrar aquella historia. Y para cerrarla, necesitará enfrentarla. Enfrentar a la chica que se robó su alma, su corazón, su vida, sus pensamientos por tantos años. Enfrentar a la mujer que le rompió el corazón. **** Obra número uno de la trilogía "Lo que me queda de ti" 1. Lo que me queda de ti. (terminada) 2. Lo que aprendí de ti. (terminada) 3.

"Not just a flavour, but a way of life." When seventeen-year-old Flo Kennedy is forced to up sticks and trade her life in London for a sleepy seaside town on the south coast, she's anything but excited. Walden-on-Sea could win awards for being Britain's dullest town, and with a population consisting almost entirely of over sixties, teenagers are an endangered species. Silently struggling with her parents' death and separation from her sister, Flo's convinced she's in for the worst summer of her life. But when she meets the guy in the ice cream shop, things start to change. It's not long before she lands herself a job, a new set of friends and maybe even the beginnings of first romance. For the first time in several years, she's happy. But Flo knows all too well that things can't stay perfect forever, and after all, being on top of the world only gives you further to fall.

Lance Corporal Kenneth Pines was a United States Marine killed in action while serving his country. Taken from this world quickly, he left behind a younger sister and four fellow Marines he had served beside until the day he died in front of them. Just when he thought he had completed his last mission, he finds himself trapped between worlds, left to discover and carryout the most important objective he'd ever been assigned. Quinn Blair has been on her own since her grandmother passed away four years ago. She has no known relatives and her job as a nurse has left her very little time to nurture close friendships. Comforting terminally ill children makes her feel emotionally connected in a way she can't seem to find outside the hospital walls. Spending hours with children who are slowly slipping from this world to the next has made her sensitive to that mysterious space between. Death might come quickly, but going "home" isn't always easy. As Kenneth waits to pass from this world into the next, he finds friendship in Quinn to comfort him until then. This is the final book in the Dear Bailey Series. It can be read as a stand-alone, but it will spoil the other stories if you have not read them yet. Also, reading the Dear Bailey series first will enhance this storyline.

(Chapter 1 only) In the winter of 1941-1942, Leningrad is under siege, and Karen Hamilton, a seventeen-year-old American musician, finds herself trapped and struggling to survive. Throughout the city, people are dying of starvation and frostbite, and Karen knows that if she doesn't escape immediately, she will share their fate. If she has any hope of leaving Russia and reuniting with her fiancé, Bobby, in New York, she must do the impossible: cross enemy lines and then stow away. On her harrowing journey, Karen encounters Petr, a young conscripted Russian soldier. She isn't sure she can trust him-he is equally wary of her. But as the two join forces in order to stay alive, an unexpected romance takes root. Now, as Karen gets closer to the reality of escape, she has a choice to make: Will she return to a safe life in America with Bobby, or remain in war-torn Russia with Petr? This is a sample chapter of the book that will be available October 18 from Lake Union Publishing.

The Napoleonic Wars have kept Captain Luke Cassidy away from home, and away from his wife and son, for three years. There was nothing more in his life that Luke wanted than to see his son for the first time. There was nothing more in his life that Luke wanted than to reunite with his family after three long years apart. But just as Britain can begin celebrating victory, Luke suffers an injury at the hands of the French that will change his life, and the life of his family, forever. Can a marriage between two people that have spent more time apart than together survive such a test? Or will Luke and Isabella succumb to the obstacles in their way? Not everything is as it seems.
