through their devotion to art, and fall in love despite all odds, from bestselling author Victoria Lee "A sensual love story about art and passion . . . emotional and heart-aching."—Ashley Poston, New York Times bestselling author of The Dead Romantics A POPSUGAR AND PUBLISHERS WEEKLY BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR Elisheva Cohen has just returned to New York after almost a decade away. The wounds of her past haven’t fully healed, but four years of sobriety and a scholarship to study photography with art legend Wyatt Cole are signs of good things to come, right? They could be, as long as Ely resists self-sabotage. She’s lucky enough to hit it off with a handsome himbo her first night out in the city. But the morning after their mind-blowing hookup, reality comes knocking. When Wyatt Cole walks into the classroom, Ely realizes the man she just spent the night with, the man whose name she couldn’t hear over the loud club music, is her teacher. Everyone in the art world is obsessed with Wyatt Cole. He’s immensely talented and his notoriously reclusive personal life makes him even more compelling. But behind closed doors, Wyatt’s past is a painful memory. After coming out as transgender, Wyatt was dishonorably discharged from the military and disowned by his family. Since these traumatic experiences, Wyatt has worked hard for his sobriety and his flourishing art career. He can’t risk it all for Ely, no matter how attracted to her he is or how bad he feels about insisting she drop his class in exchange for a strictly professional mentorship. Wyatt can help with her capstone photography project, but he cannot, under any circumstances, fall in love with her in the process. Through the lens of her camera, Ely must confront the reason she left New York in the first place: the Orthodox community that raised her, then shunned her because of her substance abuse. Along the way, Wyatt’s walls begin to break down, and each artist fights for what’s right in front of them—a person who sees them for all that they are and a love that could mean more than they ever imagined possibleGay romance holiday collection

Afghan-American Mafi’s sophomore year gets a whole lot more complicated when she accidentally exposes family secrets, putting her family back…
in Afghanistan in danger in this smartly written YA debut. Sixteen-year-old Mafi Shahin is well-aware that life is not always fair. If it was fair, her parents might allow her to hang out with a member of the male species, other than her cat Mr. Meowgi. If it was fair, her crush and basketball hottie Jalen Thomas might see her as more than just her brother's kid sister. And if it was fair, her baba’s brother and wife would be able to leave Afghanistan and come to America. Life might not be fair—but she can make it a bit more even. Working as the Ghost of Santa Margarita High, Mafi serves dollops of justice on her classmates’ behalf as the school’s secret avenger. They leave a note declaring the crime and Mafi ensures the offender receives an anonymous karmic-sized dose of payback. Keeping her identity as the Ghost a secret sometimes means Mafi has to lie. But as those lies begin to snowball both at school and at home, even compromising their family’s secret past and putting their relatives back in Afghanistan at risk, Mafi is forced to decide how she wants to live her life—trying to make the world more fair from the shadows or loudly and publicly standing up for what’s rightFull moon over freedom (Milagro Street #2)

voici nonchalamment installés dans un meublé de hasard, parfaitement désargentés et parfaitement disponibles. Presque aussitôt, se pressent autour d'eux Nora, une Américaine aussi riche que mûre, Bruno, jeune premier du cinéma français, Robert, un célèbre imprésario... Françoise Sagan intervient ici directement dans le récit, prend parti pour l'un ou l'autre de ses personnages, nous parle de sa vie, de ses doutes de femme et d'écrivaine ; elle se met en scène comme rarement. Elle utilise le « je » pour justifier ses choix et lui redonne, dans une pirouette finale, son statut romanesque. Lola Naymark, avec aisance, glisse d'un ton à l'autre, du commentaire autobiographique au roman, du mordant de Sagan au persiflage de Sébastien ou Éléonore. Ce texte admirable permet de découvrir plusieurs facettes de cette écrivaine culte. Avec le soutien du CNL (Centre National du Livre).Ces choses qu'on n'oublie pas (Knockemout)
