Ośmioro przyjaciół. Niby znają się jak łyse konie. Niby… Bo cierpią, błądzą, potykają się i upadają, zanim po omacku dojdą do najoczywistszej prawdy: w życiu liczy się tylko miłość i tylko ona pozwala dokonywać właściwych wyborów. Wszystko inne zawodzi. O czym przekonywałam Czytelników zawsze.

For eight-year-old Rufus, life has become complicated. His mother and father, Josie and Tom, have divorced amicably enough, and are set to pursue their separate paths. But other people have had to become involved - like Matthew, who has just married Josie, and Elizabeth, Tom's new friend. And even worse, there are the other children - Matthew's three resentful teenagers, who have been conditioned by their own mother Nadine to hate Josie. Rufus is supposed to regard them as family now, although he doesn't see why he should. Most of the time Matthew's children live with Nadine, in a slum-like cottage in the depths of the country. Nadine is determined that they should hate their new life as much as she does. They come to their father for weekends, and make it clear how much they loathe their new stepmother. Rufus secretly prefers to be with his father in his quiet house in Bath, and realises that he does not necessarily hate the idea of a stepmother - not if she was like Elizabeth, sane and friendly and welcoming. But where other people's children are concerned, neat solutions seldom occur.

After Evan Arden was imprisoned by the enemy for a year and a half, he returned from the desert as a military hero. He’d suffered some minor injuries during his captivity, was discharged from the Marines with just a touch of shellshock, but was considered otherwise unharmed. Now he wonders how he ended up where he is now – incarcerated in Chicago’s Metropolitan Correctional Center for using his sharpshooting expertise to take out the neighborhood park with a high-powered sniper rifle and multiple rounds of ammunition.Lia Antonio, the woman he rescued from the desert heat the previous year, is the only person who can bring him out of his sleep-deprived psychosis and mounting PTSD.

With a three-way mob war on the horizon and the feds holding evidence over his head, Evan has no choice but to throw himself into the middle of another war-zone.In his efforts to make things right in his own mind, Evan crosses the wrong man and finds himself on the business end of the cross-hairs. With his observation skills and intelligence, he tries to keep a step ahead of his former co-workers, but this time, it isn’t just his own life on the line – he’s got to protect Lia from the man who once called him son.

У меня есть все, о чем мечтает, каждая девушка. Десять лет назад, я не имела ничего - лишь дружбу и любовь всего лишь одного человечка. Нам было по девять, но это не так важно.

Он был моим щитом, от насмешек в приюте, был моим теплом, моим защитником, моим домом.

Эштон был моим лучшим другом.

До тех пор, пока однажды все не изменилось, и на долгие годы, судьба разлучила нас, а в его сердце поселилась ненависть ко мне.

Я хочу увидеть в его глазах мальчика из прошлого, но теперь я вижу там лишь...

чудовище.

Мы не должны были снова встретиться. Но так случилось, и с этого и началась моя история...

Введите сюда краткую аннотацию

Эта неспешная и пронзительная история разворачивается в старших классах. Переходный возраст, выпускные экзамены, тихий американский городок, в котором немного наивные, немного смешные Холли и Энди учатся жить и любить.От переводчика: Книга по сути своей состоит из двух частей. Я буду переводить только первую часть, поскольку она меня больше затронула и заинтересовала. Этот текст вполне может выступать в роли самостоятельной повести.

От переводчика:Во-первых, я не переводчик, я любитель. Так что просьба в пианиста не стрелять, играет, как может. Сразу предупреждаю, что вторая часть и в оригинале весьма отличается от первой. Она не такая динамичная (прямо скажем, затянутая и нудная), и если в первой полно действия, то тут местами сплошные возвышенные чувства и страдания. Но вас же это не отпугнет, правда? Вам же все равно интересно, чем кончилось?Во-вторых, я не тот человек, который переводил первую часть. И это приводит нас к маааленькой такой проблеме – я не знаю, чем руководствовался автор, переводя имя одной из главных героинь как Холли. В оригинале героиню зовут Haley Corregan, и в той же первой части она объясняет, что ее так назвал отец-астроном в честь кометы. В русской традиции исторически утвердилось написание Галлей, хотя сам Галлей произносил свою фамилию примерно как Холи, а в наши дни преобладает произношение, близкое к Хэли или (в США) Хейли.» В общем, убейте меня, но для меня она – Хейли.В-третьих, так и просится перевести название повести, как «Конец – делу венец», но этот копирайт уже давно захвачен Шекспиром, так что извернемся так: Outcome (ИСХОД).

But even lucky men can crash and burn...
