Lançamento do livro "Inverno De Sombras" de Liliana C. Lavado

A nossa querida, e já conhecida, Liliana C. Lavado publica pela chancela da Marcador, o seu mais recente livro: 

"Inverno De Sombras"

Entusiasmados??

Nós sim, e desejamos à Liliana todo o sucesso do mundo!

Para vos aguçar o apetite, aqui fica a sinopse:


Em 1833, em Lisboa, cinco monges reúnem-se para decidir o destino a dar a uma caixa secreta e à sua chave. Muitos anos depois, uma família ainda as guarda, escondidas do mundo através das gerações. Mas há alguém que entende que é a chegada a hora desse poder lhe pertencer e está decidido a encontra-las e a fazê-las mudar de mãos.

Os protagonistas desta história são seres mágicos, feiticeiros poderosos sedentos de sangue. Feitiçaria, magia, segredos e uma história de amor inesquecível percorrem alguns dos lugares mais conhecidos de Lisboa e a zona mais sinistra de Paris, numa guerra colossal de feiticeiros dominados por uma obsessão que culmina numa das maiores batalhas que jamais vista.
Numa autêntica caça ao tesouro, as peças vão-se movendo como num jogo de xadrez, com momentos em que o tempo fica parado e é preciso suster a respiração até que possamos perceber o que escondem as motivações de Danton, o protagonista desta história, filho de dois poderosos feiticeiros, e dos estranhos seres mágicos que o acompanham.

O passado colide com o presente e tudo acontece…mas não como todos esperam.

*Já nas livrarias!

Mr. Cowboy



Against the Wall by Rebecca Zanetti [Review]



Ebook, 278 pages
Published March 25th 2013
Edition Language English


Synopsis

Never challenge a cowboy in the courtroom…
Surveying the proposed site for a high-end golf course should have been a breeze for spunky Landscape Architect Sophie Smith. But when this born-and-bred city girl is suddenly—and quite literally—swept off her feet by a sexy cowboy on horseback, she realizes that the country life has some serious (and seriously steamy!) possibilities. That is, until she finds out exactly who her smokin’-hot wrangler really is.
Cowboy and Tribal lawyer Jack Lodge is desperately trying to block the development. And if that means playing hardball—and being every inch the shark lawyer—so be it. But Sophie is a distraction he didn’t expect. A distraction that makes his blood burn.
Two different worlds. Two opposing sides. And when they finally give into the exquisite temptation, the consequences will shake the foundations of both of their lives…


Review

The first order of business, tell you how much a cowboy is sexy :D OMG I need air :D
Think about all the other alpha males I reviewed about with all the characteristics that leave me swooning and drooling over my kindle, and add the most important and hell the sexiest thing about this gorgeous man, pure cowboy :D

I couldn't ask for more, between a possessive and dominant demeanor, you can also find a wicked, charming and fun man that swooped me off my feet and left me with a wish to ride a horse and get to know the outdoors better ( huge grin ).
Besides all this Jack’s a lawyer who fights for what it's right without any margin for losing.

Sophie you never stood a chance :) Poor girl, she tried, and I mean really tried but who can fight an entire town :D Every single person was trying and succeeding, to make her fall at his feet ( just the fact that she was completely spellbound since the start wasn't much help either :P ) .
I loved this story! I had my WTF moments, I laughed ( a lot ) and I was in serious need of a fan ( mischief grin).
This damn possessive and controlling cowboy is a sight to be seen, and licked, maybe kissed and I don't know (wink wink) maybe have a conversation with and just have dinner ( yeah right ). I would try, I just don't think I would succeed that well :D

There was never a dull moment, in fact I loved the fights, the insecurities and Leila, oh I loved that kid "Boys are stupid" :D and the important talk ( the birds and the bees , oh that would be fun to watch in person).
Another one of those books, you wish you were a fly and got to see the action in person, not just on your imagination :)

A fun, HHHOOOTTT and excellent book to swoon about :D
And one of the most important things, let me just say that Mr. Cowboy has two, jaw drooping brothers and his sister has a sexy tortured male by her side.
Which means I'm about to have a stand out with more cowboys and sexy alpha males :D

Oh I can't wait for that :D More sexy men on their way to mama :D ( and of course too you my dear ladies, I'm not that bad (or I'm I) no I'm not :P )


See you next week ;)
