Greenwod. Libro 1: Te odio con todo mi amor:«Cómo encajar en un mundo al que no perteneces, cómo asumir que lo que más odias es aquello que no puedes evitar amarObstinada, rebelde, irreverente, incontrolable. Esos eran algunos de los adjetivos con los que, Andrew Greenwood, el estricto y comedido conde de Hardwick definía a Marian Miller, o «Demonio Miller», como solían llamarla. Andrew había tenido que asumir la responsabilidad de su título y su familia demasiado pronto y no permitiría que nada ni nadie se interpusiera en su camino, pero todo se complica cuando Andrew y Marian descubren que el amor y la atracción que los une son casi tan potentes como la animadversión que los separa. Libro 2: Secretos compartidos:«¿Hasta dónde serias capaz de llegar por lealtad? ¿Serías capaz de renunciar a tu felicidad, a tu destino, al amor, y vencer tus propios miedos?». Maysie Sheldon tenía un secreto: había amado. Había amado con el alma, con esa inocencia conmovedora que impulsa a las jóvenes ingenuas a escaparse del dulce cobijo de sus sábanas en mitad de la noche para refugiarse en unos brazos cálidos, para robarle un minuto al tiempo, para arrancarle unos segundos al destino... Maysie Sheldon guardaba un gran secreto y su hermana Elisabeth compartía gustosa aquel peso. Libro 3: Todos tus besos:«¿Puede un beso ser mucho más que un beso? hay besos imposibles de olvidar, besos capaces de cambiar el curso de una vida... ».Thomas Sheperd ha luchado con ahínco durante toda su vida para labrarse un exitoso futuro, tratando de ignorar que es el hijo bastardo de uno de los duques más importantes de Inglaterra. Lo único que Thomas sabe del amor es que es capaz de destruir aquello que toca. En cambio, la bella e incomparable Caroline Greenwood está impaciente por encontrar el amor, el romanticismo, y todos esos besos con los que sueña.Un hombre que no cree en el amor y una mujer que sueña con él… Libro 4: Cicatrices en el alma:«Ella oculta las cicatrices de su rostro, él pretende esconder las de su alma atormentada rodeándose de oscuridad». Vincent Rhys había convertido la depravación en un arte. No era generoso ni humilde, y la mayoría de las veces ni siquiera era amable, a no ser que fuera en su propio beneficio. Alcohol, mujeres, peleas, juego… Cualquier vicio era aceptable si con ello conseguía adormecer unos instantes los fantasmas que lo asediaban. Vicent Rhys poseía la bella apariencia de un ángel y un alma llena de cicatrices, tan oscura como la del mismísimo diablo. Pero su pacífica existencia da un giro radical cuando un libertino de la peor calaña y un atrevido libro se cruzan en su camino.Praise for Judy Summers: 'I thoroughly enjoyed this book...
