Emily Henry Livres

Augustus Everett est un auteur reconnu de romans classiques, tandis que January Andrews écrit des histoires romantiques qui se terminent toujours par un happy end. January, en deuil de son père, arrive dans une maison héritée au bord du lac Michigan, où elle retrouve Gus, un ancien camarade de classe avec qui elle a toujours rivalisé. Ils découvrent rapidement qu'ils partagent plus que leur passé commun : tous deux luttent pour terminer leur livre. Un soir, ils concluent un pari inattendu pour sortir de leur impasse créative : Augustus passera l'été à écrire une histoire avec une fin heureuse, tandis que January tentera de rédiger un grand roman américain. Pour l'inspirer, elle l'emmène dans des lieux empreints de romantisme, tandis qu'il l'accompagne à la rencontre de survivants d'un culte suicidaire. Leur plan est de terminer leurs livres sans tomber amoureux l'un de l'autre. Vraiment.

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Emily Henry comes a sparkling and stylish boxed set of the first three novels that started the phenomenon: Beach Read, People We Meet on Vacation, and Book Lovers. Showcasing Emily Henry's trademark elevated romantic fiction, these three novels are filled to the brim with wit, banter, and joy, while also being relatable, genuinely funny, and cathartic, as Emily tackles themes that resonate deeply with her readers. Beach Read A romance author who no longer believes in love and a literary writer stuck in a rut engage in a summer-long challenge that may just upend everything they believe about happily-ever-afters. People We Meet on Vacation Alex and Poppy are the best of friends, and every summer they have taken one glorious week of vacation together--until two years ago, when they ruined everything. Now, Poppy wants her best friend back and convinces Alex to go on one more trip together: one week to fix everything. Book Lovers A cutthroat literary agent agrees to accompany her sister on a trip to Sunshine Falls, NC, in order to become the heroine in her own story, only to keep bumping into the brooding editor from back in the city.

Daphne always loved the way her fiance Peter told their story. How they met (on a blustery day), fell in love (over an errant hat), and moved back to his lakeside hometown to begin their life together. He really was good at telling it... right up until the moment he realized he was actually in love with his childhood best friend Petra.Which is how Daphne begins her new story: Stranded in beautiful Waning Bay, Michigan, without friends or family but with a dream job as a children's librarian (that barely pays the bills), and proposing to be roommates with the only person who could possibly understand her predicament: Petra's ex, Miles Nowak.Scruffy and chaotic - with a penchant for taking solace in the sounds of heart break love ballads - Miles is exactly the opposite of practical, buttoned up Daphne, whose coworkers know so little about her they have a running bet that she's either FBI or in witness protection. The roommates mainly avoid one another, until one day, while drowning their sorrows, they form a tenuous friendship and a plan. If said plan also involves posting deliberately misleading photos of their summer adventures together, well, who could blame them?But it's all just for show, of course, because there's no way Daphne would actually start her new chapter by falling in love with her ex-fiance's new fiancee's ex... right?

FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR & GLOBAL TIK TOK SENSATION, EMILY HENRY Two writers compete for the chance to tell the larger-than-life story of an heiress with more than a few plot twists up her sleeve in this dazzling and sweeping new novel from Emily Henry. When Margaret Ives, the famously reclusive heiress, invites eternal optimist Alice Scott to the balmy Little Crescent Island, Alice knows this is it: her big break. And even more rare: a chance to impress her family with a Serious Publication. The catch? Pulitzer-prize winning human thundercloud, Hayden Anderson, is sure of the same thing. The proposal? A one-month trial period to unearth the truth behind one of the most scandalous families of the 20th Century, after which she'll choose who'll tell her story. The problem? Margaret is only giving each of them tantalising pieces. Pieces they can't put together because of an ironclad NDA and an inconvenient yearning pulsing between them every time they're in the same room. And it's becoming abundantly clear that their story - just like the tale Margaret's spinning - could be a mystery, tragedy, or love ballad ... depending on who's telling it.

A couple who broke up months ago make a pact to pretend to still be together during their annual weeklong vacation with friends in this insightful novel from a bestselling author. Harriet and Wyn have always been the perfect couple since college, but now they’re not together, having split six months prior without informing their closest friends. This leads to an awkward situation as they share a bedroom at their friend group's beloved Maine cottage, a place they've cherished for a decade. This annual retreat allows them to escape their daily lives, indulging in cheese, wine, and seafood while enjoying the coastal air with those who know them best. However, this year is different; they are both trying to suppress their lingering feelings while maintaining the façade of a happy couple.

It seems like a perfect plan—if viewed from a distance and through sunscreen-smeared sunglasses. After years of love, how challenging can it be to fake a relationship for just one week in front of their closest friends?

Keď k sebe pozve večnú optimistku Alice Scottovú, aby napísala jej životopis, Alice vycíti príležitosť, že sa konečne presadí. Háčik je v tom, že Margaret pozvala za rovnakým účelom aj skúseného spisovateľa, nositeľa Pulitzerovej ceny Haydena Andersona. Obidvaja dostanú mesačnú skúšobnú lehotu na odkrytie pravdy o jednej z najškandalóznejších rodín 20. storočia.
