Eu sabia
Yupppiii
Até que ontem chego a casa e tenho lá um embrulho com o meu nome e do fofo, pensei logo: "Para que é que abras a boca antes do tempo?". É que convinhamos o que se pode dar a um casal que AMBOS gostem??? Sei lá, um DVD talvez, uma estadia num hotel, etc... Não, meus amigos vamos oferecer uma caixa de chocolates!
Atenção a bendita vem numa latinha e tudo, ao menos não é uma caixa qualquer, mas eu até nem sou fã daquele género de chocolates....

Master of th Highlands - Veronica Wolff (1º livro)
Sinopse:
SHE'S BACK IN TIME...Lily Hamlin has finally realized that her life isn't as perfect as she once thought. Making a pilgrimage to Scotland, a land she's only heard about in lullabies, Lily hopes that she can find her place again. But while exploring the Highlands, she discovers an overgrown maze and a strange stone map--and lands in the Lochaber of 1654...
...JUST IN TIME FOR HIM.Ewen, Chief of the Clan Cameron, is a busy man who must figure out how to save his people from the brutal redcoats and has time for little else. Having sired an heir, the widowed Ewen has no need-or room-for another romance. Then into his life drops a saucy lass with a peculiar accent, no regard for his title--and an arousing body. Drawn to each other despite their differences, they both realize that they don't want her to go back to her own time. But with battles brewing between the Camerons, the redcoats, and a rival clan, staying is a gamble.

Sinopse:
SHE HAD TO GO BACK IN TIME TO FIND THE MAN OF HER DREAMS...
One minute, she’s New York heiress and art curator Magda Deacon, enraptured by the sexy Scotsman captured in an old portrait. The next, she’s falling through time to 17th century Scotland—and embarking on the most erotic journey of her life...
Infamous playboy James Graham, First Marquis of Montrose, doesn’t know what to make of the strange woman who’s stumbled into his life. Her accent may be foreign, but Magda plays golf and rides like a red-blooded Scotsman—not that James could ever mistake her succulent lips and curves for anything but deliciously female…
But war rages in the Highlands, the land for which James and his men will lay down their lives. And when Magda faces a terrifying enemy and a daunting choice, only her Scottish hero will be able to set things right…

Sinopse:
She has a year to make him love her… Isabel MacDonald agrees to a handfast marriage with Rory MacLeod, her clan’s bitterest enemy in order to end a deadly feud. But the handfast is only a cover to gain her access to his castle—and with a little seduction, his heart. But her treacherous plans are immediately tested by the fearsome Rory, a powerful Highland chief who embodies everything she admires. Soon Isabel has found the place in the family she’s always dreamed of with the man she must betray, and her only hope of happiness is to escape her own dangerous web of lies.
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer… Rory’s duty as Chief of Clan MacLeod is clear: He’ll obey the king’s directive to handfast with the MacDonald lass—but under his own terms. As a handfast is only required for a year, at that point Rory plans to return this unwanted handfast bride to her family and forge a different marriage alliance. But his plan to keep his distance from his unwanted bride is challenged by the beautiful seductive siren who proves impossible to ignore. And when he catches her snooping and removes her to his bed to watch over her, Rory finds himself wishing that the year would never end.

Sinopse:
Meg Mackinnon knows she has to find a loyal, trustworthy husband to support her simple brother as chief. Her father has entrusted her with the decision, and letting him down is not an option. So she leaves for court begin her search. The dark, mysterious outlaw who rescues her on her way meets none of her criteria, but arouses her passions in a way that Meg can not ignore. Alex MacLeod claims to be a mercenary, a man with no loyalties. But soon Meg suspects that Alex is not what he seems and she must learn to trust her heart, or risk losing the right man forever.
Driven by the demons of his past, Alex fights against the king’s injustice. But when he uncovers the details of a royal plot to colonize the Highlands with Lowlanders, the last thing he needs is to be distracted by a lass who interferes with his mission at every turn. Thrust into a web of deadly intrigue, which binds him and Meg ever closer together, Alex soon faces the ultimate battle between love and duty.

Sinopse:
Flora MacLeod is determined to avoid the sad fate of her mother—bartered between rival clans through four unhappy, politically-arranged marriages. Now Flora, considered the greatest marriage prize in the Highlands, has become a political pawn herself. Despite the determination of no fewer than three powerful Highland Chiefs to force her hand, she has vowed never to become any man’s prize. Flora’s resolve is soon put to the test by the fiercely handsome, enigmatic man who’s kidnapped her for a ransom she’ll never pay…her heart.
Lachlan MacLean has gotten more than he’s bargained for. The battle-hardened Chief has kidnapped the beautiful heiress with the intention of wooing her for marriage. But the gruff Highland chief isn’t used to wooing women, especially not the most exasperating, stubborn woman he’s ever met. And when the curse surrounding an old tragedy puts Flora’s life in danger, Lachlan realizes his ploy may well have cost him a chance at love.

Crítica literária
Ora então aqui vai:
Após ter lido o 1º livro desta série, que até gostei, mas confesso que demorei mais do que o habitual a acabar, porque estava cá com um "pó" à personagem principal, lá comecei este com alguma apreensão.
No entanto tenho de dizer que este é mesmo fabuloso!!! Simplesmente estou completamente rendida a esta nova série.
Até a Eve me conquistou! :O
Quem quiser apostar força!
Resolução de Ano Novo I
O que quero para o próximo ano:
1ª SER FELIZ - ok podem pensar que raio de deseja esta aqui pede, mas é difícil ser feliz em certos dias. Eu não quero ser feliz 24h mas quero pensar que todos os dias sou feliz, nem que seja em apenas um momento do dia.
2º SAÚDE - que o que está em análise se resolva e pronto!
3º VIAJAR - quero sim, ir a muito lado
4º CASA NOVA
5º AUMENTO SALARIAL - ou um novo emprego para mim tanto faz
O que não quero para o próximo ano é:
- Stresses com coisas insignificantes
- mágoa
- inveja, dor de corno ou ciúmes
- mentiras
- desilusões
- chatices (no geral mesmo)
Coisa pouca não?

Antes do Amanhecer -Diana Palmer

Shopaholic & Sister - Sophie Kinsella

Becky Bloomwood, America’s favorite shopaholic, is back in a hilarious, heartwarming tale of married life, best friends, and long-lost sisters (and the perils of simply having to own an Angel handbag!). What’s a round-the-world honeymoon if you can’t buy the odd souvenir to ship back home? Like the twenty silk dressing gowns Becky found in Hong Kong…the hand-carved dining table (and ten chairs) from Sri Lanka…the, um, huge wooden giraffes from Malawi (that her husband Luke expressly forbade her to buy)… Only now Becky and Luke have returned home to London and Luke is furious. Two truckloads of those souvenirs have cluttered up their loft, and the bills for them are outrageous. Luke insists Becky go on a budget. And worse: her beloved best friend Suze has found a new best friend while Becky was away. Becky’s feeling rather blue—when her parents deliver some incredible news. She has a long-lost sister! Becky is thrilled! She’s convinced her sister will be a true soulmate. They’ll go shopping together, have manicures together.…Until she meets Jessica for the first time and gets the shock of her life. Surely Becky Bloomwood’s sister can’t…hate shopping?
Shopaholic & Baby - Sophie Kinsella

Becky’s life is blooming! She’s working at London’s newest big store, The Look, house-hunting with husband Luke (her secret wish is a Shoe Room)...and she’s pregnant! She couldn’t be more overjoyed—especially since discovering that shopping cures morning sickness. Everything has got to be perfect for her baby: from the designer nursery…to the latest, coolest pram…to the celebrity, must-have obstetrician. But when the celebrity obstetrician turns out to be Luke’s glamorous, intellectual ex-girlfriend, Becky’s perfect world starts to crumble. She’s shopping for two…but are there three in her marriage?
Bom estes 2 últimos pedi através do Bookdepository, que tenho de dizer excelente serviço.
Esta autora era traduzida em português, mas ao que parece a editora decidiu não publicar mais- coisa que me irrita profundamente.
Mas adiante.... Esta autora é o máximo, escrita alegre e divertida que promete um tempo bem passado. Recomendo!
Depois das leituras feitas, direi de minha sentença!
Bom Domingo!
