Peter e sua raposa são inseparáveis desde que ele a resgatou, órfã, ainda filhote. Um dia, o inimaginável acontece: o pai do menino vai servir na guerra, e o obriga a devolver Pax à natureza. Ao chegar à distante casa do avô, onde passará a morar, Peter reconhece que não está onde deveria: seu verdadeiro lugar é ao lado de Pax. Movido por amor, lealdade e culpa, ele parte em uma jornada solitária de quase quinhentos quilômetros para reencontrar sua raposa, apesar da guerra que se aproxima. Enquanto isso, mesmo sem desistir de esperar por seu menino, Pax embarca em suas próprias aventuras e descobertas.Alternando perspectivas para mostrar os caminhos paralelos dos dois personagens centrais, Pax expõe o desenvolvimento do menino em sua tentativa de enfrentar a ferocidade herdada pelo pai, enquanto a raposa, domesticada, segue o caminho contrário, de explorar sua natureza selvagem. Um romance atemporal e para todas as idades, que aborda relações familiares, a relação do homem com o ambiente e os perigos que carregamos dentro de nós mesmos.
Pax emociona o leitor desde a primeira página. Um mundo repleto de sentimentos em que natureza e humanidade se encontram numa história que celebra a lealdade e o amor.
Just when she's decided to leave the Town, Lady Cressida Belverst is forced to marry Lord Calan Haverston, the man who coincidentally knows a way out. Agreeing to marry for all the wrong reasons, can Cressida and Calan find out where their hearts truly belong?
***
It is impossible to leave the Town, but one woman is determined to escape with the help of her betrothed.
Lady Cressida Belverst has always been judged as a walking scandal. Oh, how she tries (on some rare occasions) to be proper! When her parents arrange for her to marry a rich lord, Cressida has had enough. She has to leave the Town because she will not be forced to live with a man she doesn't love. But what happens if the very man she's betrothed to is the only one who can help her get out?
Calan Haverston, the Lord of Easton, takes the risk and helps his betrothed by using his knowledge of the Town's secrets because he is as willing as she to stay free of marriage for reasons completely different. He has dark secrets he cannot share with her, and his life is not one he can likewise open to anyone. But what happens when she leaves after awakening desires he thought he has under control? And what happens when he finds himself longing for her?
Cressida goes to a completely different place, one she has only heard in stories and read in books, with hopes of finding what her heart has always longed for. But love, mystery and secrets will chase her and it will only be a matter of time before she realizes what her heart truly desires.
