El Dia Que Dejo de Nevar En Alaska
Alice Kellen · 2019
"Un chico con el corazâon de hielo. Una chica que huye de sâi misma. Dos destinos que se cruzan. Heather cree que solo hay tres cosas que sabe hacer: atraer problemas, salir huyendo y correr. Asâi es como termina en Alaska, en un pequeäno pueblo perdido, trabajando de camarera mientras intenta llevar una vida nueva y tranquila. Su âunico problema es que uno de los dueänos del restaurante parece odiarla y que ella nunca antes ha conocido a nadie que despierte tanto su curiosidad. Nilak es reservado, frâio y distante, pero Heather puede ver a travâes de todas las capas tras las que se esconde y sabe que en ocasiones hay recuerdos que pesan demasiado; como los de sus propios errores, esos que intenta dejar atrâas. Pero, a veces, la vida te da una segunda oportunidad. La nieve empieza a derretirse. Y todo encaja."--

But as civil war threatens to drown the Courts of Faerie in violence, Jude will need to risk her life in a dangerous alliance to save her sisters, and Faerie itself.

Lynn Painter · 2023
A New York Times Bestseller<br/><br/>From the New York Times bestselling author of Better Than the Movies, this “entertaining” (Publishers Weekly) rom-com in the vein of She’s All That and 10 Things I Hate About You follows a teen girl who unwittingly finds herself at the center of a bet while working at a waterpark.<br/><br/>When seventeen-year-old Bailey starts a new job at a hotel waterpark, she is less than thrilled to see an old acquaintance is one of her coworkers. Bailey met Charlie a year ago on the long flight to Omaha, where she moved after her parents’ divorce. Charlie’s cynicism didn’t mix well with Bailey’s carefully well-behaved temperament, and his endless commentary was the irritating cherry on top of an already emotionally fraught trip.<br/><br/>Now, Bailey and Charlie are still polar opposites, but instead of everything about him rubbing Bailey the wrong way, she starts to look forward to hanging out and gossiping about the waterpark guests and their coworkers—particularly two who keep flirting with each other.

Charlie insists that members of the opposite sex can’t just be friends, and Bailey is determined to prove him wrong.<br/><br/>Bailey and Charlie keep close track of the romantic progress of others while Charlie works to deflect the growing feelings he’s developed for Bailey.
