A starving Italian painter flees Paris in the winter of 1974. His destination -- a tiny private island lost in the Indian Ocean. His destiny -- a soul-crushing love triangle with a French nobleman and a haughty Parisian intellectual. His fate -- involuntary exile. And a predestined son, Laurent D'Allegro.

An adored father, why would he have inexplicably abandoned home? 

At 33, a visual artist himself, Laurent is on the verge of fame and scandal. From bullied teen to heart breaker and serial seducer, he is the ugly duckling turned into a gorgeous swan – living only to devour other swans. Emotionally crippled, he oscillates between taking revenge and seeking redemption. True love, and a tragedy, will help him decide.

Algeria, Iceland, Italy, France, Morocco, Russia, Sweden, the US, remote islands in the Indian and Pacific Oceans --  we crisscross the globe in this journey of a young man trying to trace his origins through a maze of lies. Traveling back and forth in time across five generations of  an extraordinary family, understanding less as he discovers more, Laurent realizes to have loved and hated people in his life for the wrong reasons, which are not fully understood until -- the last canvas.

I am not who I am. 

I am not what you think I am. 

Please listen, and be kind.Todos os Direitos Reservados

Lucien is drawn to Noah's silence. Noah is drawn to Lucien's fire. As the summer unfolds, the two boys begin a passionate and complicated affair. Days are spent swimming, painting, sneaking kisses behind pine trees, and lying on docks with bruised hearts exposed. Nights become heavier, electric with want and things left unsaid.

And there are whispers in the town: that Lucien is sick - dying, maybe - but no one knows the full story.

❝People like you don't get happy endings, not after that.❞ **** Childhood best friends Étienne LeRoy and Louella Rey were once inseparable-two halves of a perfect whole. Where Étienne was steady, Lou was wild, filling every moment with laughter and light. But that was before. Before Lou disappeared. At twenty-two, Louella has become a ghost of her former self, retreating into a world of silence and secrets after deferring her college dreams. She's mastered the art of blending into the background, hiding the pain she carries like a bruise that never fades. When Étienne returns home after a year abroad, he barely recognizes the girl he used to know. Lou's spark is gone, replaced by hollow eyes and a fragile shell of who she used to be. Haunted by the change and unwilling to give up on her, Étienne sets out to uncover the truth behind her withdrawal. But some truths are better left buried. There's something she's not telling him, something dark-something that involves the one person Étienne trusts most in the world. The deeper he digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes, until Étienne is forced to confront a devastating question: How well do you really know the people you love? **There are serious themes discussed in this book.

I Love The Way You Love Me (hiatus for now), de AyashiDon

In the storm-lashed town of Port-Saint-Laurent, Damien sits on a lonely bench, ready to end the emptiness that has shadowed his twenty-five years. Wealth, beauty, and privilege mean nothing to a man who feels nothing at all, who drifts through life as if behind glass, untouched by joy, grief, or purpose. Tonight, the restless sea will be his last witness. But then, the rain stops falling on him. A girl, too young to belong in his world, yet strangely unafraid, stands behind him, holding out an umbrella. Her name is Élodie. She speaks of rain as the world's tears, of beauty that blooms when the skies clear, and of colors that return after the storm. She presses the umbrella into his hand, then walks away into the downpour, leaving him with nothing but her name echoing in his mind. When the rain finally ceases, Damien finds the world subtly transformed. The air is sharper, the sea calmer, and for the first time in years, he no longer wants to disappear. All because of a fleeting encounter with a stranger who smiled in the rain. And that night, he did not just find the meaning of life, he found his soul.

All The Days I Was Gone, de NightmareWonderlands

My feet sank into the damp, muddy earth as I fled through the field. I could feel my heart pounding rapidly against my bruised chest, and I could hear his rasping breath as he chased after me. "I can't let him catch me." Forrest Peterson was sixteen when she disappeared without a trace. There were no leads, no trails, no body to be found. There were no witnesses or suspects. She was just gone. A year and a half after her disappearance, Forrest is found bloody, broken, and desperate to be rescued. She escaped from her captors and longs to find normalcy in her life again, starting with the handsome and familiar man who saved her. Everything should be falling in place after the eighteen months she was missing, but there's a problem. Forrest doesn't remember anything. She doesn't remember being kidnapped, she doesn't remember what happened, she doesn't remember who her kidnappers are. Her mind is blank, and she fears her kidnappers identities will never be revealed. As Forrest struggles to find her place back in life she slowly begins unraveling the fragments of her memory, uncovering the painful secrets her past holds. The truth of what happened that fateful day and the horrors she faced is just a flashback away, and she wants the answers as soon as she can get them. But Forrest is running out of time. The monsters are still out there, and they're much closer than she thinks. *Pictures are not mine and belong to their rightful photographers*
