Book Description
Mr. Choi blackmails Jay into a horrible proposition. She must fly to France and use whatever means necessary to convince Jarte, a man who despises her now, to wash his hands of Choi's company shares. Choi threatens to release information that will land her entire family in prison if she fails. Her assassin bodyguard Lennox issues his own ultimatum. He believes going to France would be suicide, and he refuses to protect Jay anymore if she's determined to hurt herself. Torn between loyalties, Jay must choose whether or not to board the plane to France and return to the lion's den of world politics. By all accounts, Jarte has become quite a different kind of ruler since she left him. Some say he's become a devil. And like all devils, he may just want Jay's soul in return for any favor she begs from him.

We Are the Perfect Girl
Author: Ariel Kaplan
Publisher: Knopf Books for Young Readers
ISBN: 0525647104
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
This witty, warm-hearted retelling of Cyrano de Bergerac is a love letter to female friendship. Perfect for Stephanie Perkins fans, and anyone who's ever thought of trying on a new identity to impress a guy. Aphra Brown is bold and outgoing. Her best friend, Bethany, is achingly beautiful. Individually, they could both do a little better in the self-esteem department, but together? Together, they have what it takes to win over Greg D'Agostino, a proverbial "ten," who happens to be fluent in six languages--seven if you count the language of smoldering gazes . . . What begins as an honest mistake turns into an elaborate deception, wherein Bethany goes on dates with Greg while Aphra coaches her on what to say, and texts him in the guise of Bethany, trying and failing, all the while, to tamp down her own hopeless crush. It's only a matter of time before things come crashing down. The question is: What will happen when Greg finds out? And can Aphra and Bethany's friendship survive the fallout? From the author of We Regret to Inform You comes a witty, warm-hearted exploration of love in all its forms, and a cris-de-coeur for self-acceptance when the pressure to be perfect is overwhelming. "There is much to appreciate about this book: its cleverness, its humor, that it embraces and normalizes therapy, that it places familial love and friendship on a level with romantic love. But, perhaps best of all, it offers teens, especially those struggling to accept and love themselves, a picture of a girl who makes mistakes and fights to begin again." --Booklist, starred review "At once painful and heartfelt . . . a smart and honest look at female beauty, with plenty of panache to boot." --Kirkus, starred review
