Summary:
"De la autora de Cruzando los límites, una nueva apuesta para Fresh y el género New Adult. Una novela emotiva y sentimental, con una trama fina y delicada y grandes giros que no te esperas. Una historia me que te hará reír, llorar y sufrir a partes iguales. Novalie ha pasado los últimos cuatro años cuidando de su madre enferma, y esa terrible circunstancia la ha obligado a madurar demasiado rápido. Se ha convertido en una joven fuerte y decidida que sabe lo quiere; por eso no se rinde con su padre que, deprimido y derrotado por la muerte de su esposa, ha perdido las ganas de vivir. Nick tiene un don para la música. Es un prodigio del piano. Las mejores escuelas internacionales se lo disputan. Y su familia, demasiado protectora, planea grandes cosas para él. Novalie y Nick son polos opuestos. Dos vidas separadas por la distancia y las diferencias. Lo único que tienen en común es que ambos deberán pasar el verano en Bluehaven, una isla que esconde un pasado lleno de secretos y que cambiará sus vidas para siempre"-- Provided by publisher.
From the author of Crossing the Limits, a new bet for Fresh and the New Adult genre. An emotional and sentimental novel, with a fine and delicate plot and big twists that you do not expect. A story that will make you laugh, cry and suffer in equal parts. Novalie has spent the last four years taking care of her sick mother, and that terrible circumstance has forced her to grow up too quickly. She has become a strong and determined young woman who knows what she wants; That is why she does not give up on her father who, depressed and defeated by the death of his wife, has lost his will to live. Nick has a gift for music. He is a piano prodigy. The best international schools dispute it. And his family, too protective, plans great things for him. Novalie and Nick are polar opposites. Two lives separated by distance and differences. The only thing they have in common is that they both must spend the summer in Bluehaven, an island that hides a past full of secrets and that will change their lives forever.
