Alice est forte. Alice est indépendante. Alice est une survivante. À trente ans, Alice Eliot Saito est perdue. Sa meilleure amie est partie vivre à l'autre bout du monde avec sa nouvelle famille et sa soeur est plongée dans ses études de droit. Elle pourrait trouver du réconfort avec un homme, mais elle les fuit comme la peste. Bien qu'elle apprécie leur compagnie de temps à autre, Alice définie toujours ses limites : du respect, une seule et unique nuit et surtout... l'interdiction de toucher son ventre. A la manière d'un coup de vent, Alice prend ce qu'elle cherche, vous remplit de frisson et finit par disparaitre sans laisser de trace. Alors elle se réfugie dans le travail ou dans ses rares sorties avec sa soeur. Malgré tout, il lui manque quelque chose, un petit plus qui la fasse vibrer : de l'amour. Sauf que ce mot est proscrit de son vocabulaire, elle s'est interdit de le vivre et elle ne compte pas déroger à sa règle. Lors d'un énième rendez-vous avec sa psychologue énergéticienne, elle lui propose une expérience étonnante : s'inscrire à un programme de Speed Dating pour s'entraîner à être plus ouverte avec les hommes. Rien de bien méchant en apparence... Mais quand elle tombe sur Liam, sa colère prend le dessus. Il est tout ce qu'elle déteste : provocant, moqueur, arrogant et complètement con. Elle le déteste dès le premier coup d'œil et n'hésite pas à lui faire savoir à coup de piques acérées. Une soirée à supporter avec ce prétentieux ? Facile... enfin... pas quand ils doivent faire semblant de s'apprécier sur une dizaine de rendez-vous. *** Roman protégé par l'INPI (Institut national de la propriété industrielle) avec enveloppe Soleau.

For 17-year-old Nyx Madden, stealing shadows is second nature. This rare power allows her to control the person whose shadow she holds. And, since she's been on her own for the past five years, it's her only chance at survival. But Nyx's life in the shadows is jeopardized when she is visited by Victor, the enigmatic leader of the criminal underworld. Somehow, he discovered that she is the faceless Shadow Thief, Itoria's most wanted criminal. If he reveals her identity, she'll be hanged. Victor strikes a deal with Nyx. He'll give her more gold than she knows what to do with in exchange for the shadow of Itoria's Silver Prince, thus nicknamed for his fickle nature and careless wealth. Nyx readily agrees, as this may be the last shadow she ever has to steal. And, considering the Silver Prince's rotten reputation, Itoria can only improve with him out of the way. In order to take the prince's shadow, Nyx must uncover his greatest fear and confront him with it. She infiltrates the castle, where she discovers that nothing in Itoria is as it seems, including the prince himself. Stuck under his dying father's thumb, the Silver Prince has little freedom-but his selfish, callow nature might be hiding a golden heart. With her identity hanging in the balance, Nyx finds the fate of the entire kingdom in her hands-and her own heart in the hands of the Silver Prince.
