Find out what happens when their perfect image breaks in #1 New York Times bestselling author Rachel Van Dyken''s steamy new adult romance. Everything was perfect. Until it wasn''t. Until my family took on a foster girl and placed her across the hall from me. A charity case to look good and a person who should have never existed in my world. I kissed her to get her to stop talking, and then I kissed her again because I liked the taste of her words-I liked her. It was our secret until we got caught-that night changed everything. We became strangers living in the same house, seeing the same ghosts of our past mistakes, but I can''t stop thinking about us, about those forbidden moments. I pretend to hate her, I tell her I''ll never forgive her, and then Quinn, my ex-best friend, steps into the picture. I can''t tell if he actually likes her or if he has a death wish and just likes pissing me off, but what do I say? Stay away from my foster sister? She''s mine? I''ve already had her? Saying that to him would expose what we were and ruin everything. We''re all three of us living multiple lies, and eventually, I know our ivory tower of perfection is going to come crashing down. He knows my secrets. I know his. And now she knows both. She wants. He wants. But I always-always get what I want. And what I want is the girl, no matter what it may cost me.

Nejsem typická dívka. Utíkala jsem tak dlouho před vzpomínkami, které mě pronásledovaly, až se deprese stala mou jedinou společnicí. Žila jsem v temnotě... dokud se Wes Michels nenabídl, že se stane mým světlem. Netušila jsem, že čas nehraje v můj prospěch – že každou vteřinou, která uběhne, se přibližuju ke konci něčeho, co znamená začátek konce mě samotné. Snažil se mě varovat. Slíbil mi všechno, co jen mohl – každičkou chvíli –, ale ani to nestačilo. Někdy, když si myslíte, že je konec, tak je to ve skutečnosti jen začátek. Wes si myslel, že mě může zachránit, ale tím, že mi dal všechno, mě naopak zničil. Protože po jednom jediném polibku, jednom jediném dotyku už jsem nemohla – už jsem nechtěla – být stejná jako dřív. Od té chvíle se jeho srdeční tep stal mým vlastním.

Per due anni, è come se non avessi vissuto; ero persa in un baratro di dolore, da cui credevo non sarei più riemersa. Poi ho incontrato Wes Michels. Lui è il raggio di sole che ha squarciato le tenebre della mia esistenza, la luce che mi ha ridato la speranza e la forza di ricominciare. Mi sono affidata ciecamente a lui, anche quando tutti mi dicevano di non farlo: Wes è troppo ricco, troppo impegnato a diventare la nuova stella del football e, soprattutto, troppo corteggiato per rimanere fedele a una ragazza come me. Non sanno quanto si sbagliano. Non conoscono il suo cuore e sono all’oscuro del suo segreto. Su una cosa però avevano ragione: non avrei dovuto innamorarmi di lui. Ho paura che, se resterò ancora una volta sola, sprofonderò di nuovo nel baratro. Perché adesso so che ogni giorno passato con Wes potrebbe essere l’ultimo... Letto, riletto, commentato e consigliato da legioni di fan in tutto il mondo, Ricordati di sognare è un romanzo struggente e carico di speranza. Perché quella fra Kiersten e Wes è una storia d’amore unica come ogni storia d’amore, e universale come solo le grandi storie d’amore sanno essere. Rachel Van Dyken è autrice delle serie: Ruin Ricordati di sognare Ricordati di amare Ricordati di sperare Ricordati di perdonare The Bet Quello che sei per me Cosa non farei per te Mai più senza di te
