Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
Enjoy this small town romance by award winning and bestselling author, Lucinda Race. Three independent sisters. Two unclear choices. And one magical wedding dress with a mysterious letter that could change Kenzie MacLellan’s life forever. When a mystical wedding gown transformed her sister’s life, Kenzie MacLellan never imagined she’d be next. Now, faced with her own letter and the dress’s magic, she’s forced to confront a future she never wanted—or believed in. Fiercely independent Kenzie thrives in her small Vermont town, running her fitness center and living life on her own terms. With her best friend, Robbie Burns, as her constant “plus one,” she’s never felt the need to date. Why would she when her perfect companion is already by her side? Honoring Gran’s final request, Kenzie reluctantly dons the heirloom dress. The reflection in the mirror leaves her shaken to her core, prompting her to flee to the familiar comfort of the mountains. Robbie, unbeknownst to Kenzie, has spent years silencing his heart, playing the role of devoted friend and the occasional “borrowed boyfriend.” His love for her runs deep, but he’s never dared to cross the line. During their annual hiking trip to the White Mountains, Kenzie falls—but not in the way Robbie had hoped. For the first time in her life, Kenzie finds herself depending on someone else—and Robbie catches her. His patience and tenderness awaken new feelings as Kenzie’s carefully constructed walls begin to crumble. Suddenly, the line between friendship and love blurs. Kenzie must decide: Is she willing to risk their rock-solid bond for a chance at something more? Will she take the leap from borrowed time to a lifetime of love, or let fear keep her feet firmly on the ground? Borrowed is the second novel in the MacLellan Sisters Trilogy, although each book can be read as standalone. A sweet and clean romantic story with a guaranteed happily ever after. Happy reading!

A “tour-de-force” espionage thriller and the New York Times–bestselling debut novel from an international bestselling master of suspense (Chicago Tribune).

On a seemingly routine intelligence operation, Jan Johansen and his companion head to Finland, but when they wander over the Russian border, they are gunned down in cold blood. Halvard Starheim, an experienced explorer and Jan’s friend, is determined to find out what went wrong. Halvard is joined by Jan’s beautiful widow and a journalist who is hiding his own dangerous secret. Their journey will slowly uncover an international conspiracy—and lead to a terrifying showdown in the freezing Arctic winter. “Stephen King horror and Ingmar Bergman darkness . . . A galloping good read.” —The Washington Post Book World Night Sky: Three lives, caught in the turbulence of World War II, converge one fateful night on the same beach. Julie Lescaux, a young English mother, has moved to France and become perilously involved in the French Resistance. David Freyman, a German-Jewish scientist, has made a discovery that could free war-torn Europe. But Nazi spies threaten at every turn, including Paul Vasson, a former-pimp-turned-collaborator, in this “thoroughly professional wartime adventure” (The Sunday Times). “A terrific thriller.” —Time Out London
