Book Description
Da mesma autora de Os Sete Maridos de Evelyn Hugo Vencedor do Prémio Goodreads Toda a gente conhece os icónicos Daisy Jones & The Six, mas nunca ninguém soube o que levou à sua separação no auge da popularidade... Até agora. Durante a adolescência, no final da década de 1960, Daisy Jones descobre a noite de Los Angeles: os bares, as estrelas de rock, o sexo e as drogas. Mas o que ela quer realmente é escrever as suas próprias canções. Com uma voz rouca, uma beleza distintiva e uma atitude confiante, Daisy está no caminho certo para o sucesso. Os The Six, a banda dos irmãos Billy e Graham Dunne, começam também a ganhar alguma notoriedade, mas o ritmo da vida na estrada, as groupies e o álcool levam a que Billy comece a descarrilar, tanto em palco como na sua vida pessoal. Os caminhos de Daisy e Billy cruzam-se quando o produtor musical da banda decide juntar as duas vozes num dueto, que resulta num êxito estrondoso. A partir daí, os Daisy Jones & The Six começam a tocar em todos os gira-discos, os seus concertos esgotam os recintos e a banda torna-se uma verdadeira lenda. Esta é a história dos primeiros tempos e das noites loucas, mas todos os membros da banda recordam o que aconteceu de maneira diferente. Porque nem sempre é fácil perceber onde acaba a música e começam os sentimentos. Os elogios da crítica: «A Daisy e a banda conquistaram o meu coração e vão certamente conquistar o vosso também.» — Reese Witherspoon

Languages : en
Pages : 238

Book Description
Perfect for fans of A Winter in New York by Josie Silver and Always in December by Emily Stone, Christmas at Reedy Falls is an opposites-attract, wholesome Christmas romance that will leave readers believing in the magic of the holiday—and how it brings people together. When Mamie Morrow, a fledgling Charleston journalist, is offered an assignment covering the Grand Bohemian Lodge in Greenville, South Carolina, at Christmastime, she jumps at the chance. Her grandfather recently passed away and left her a mysterious box of objects from the time she spent with him in New Mexico when she was three. Mamie has zero recollection of her time with her grandfather, but she now knows that he was Navajo—and as the majestic Grand Bohemian is filled with Native American art, she hopes being there will help her regain those memories. Robert Fitzpatrick is an upstart photographer from South Boston. Through equal parts inspiration and perspiration, he’s managed to compile a stunning portfolio, and he’s just relocated to slower-paced Charleston for its lush beauty and creative community. He’s also looking for the one—a girl to whom he can give his whole heart forever. But he harbors family secrets of his own. Rob is smitten with Mamie’s energy and pluck, but to Mamie, career comes first. As Christmas Day approaches, the two grapple with the complications that arise when dreams confront reality—and witness the Christmas magic that can happen when you put your faith in love.
