Instead, she's stuck for an entire month with her family at a camp in the desert in Southern California. When she stumbles across a staff party on the first night, she's jealous of their joyful, uninhibited dancing. She hasn't danced like that since two years ago, when she was forced to quit ballet, which she once loved more than anything. She's determined to leave dance where it belongs -- the past. But Jordan, the handsome and magnetic hip-hop dance instructor, keeps dragging it into her present. As Kat begins sneaking around and lying to her parents to spend time with Jordan, she'll have to ask herself -- what is she willing to risk to finally feel free? And is it possible her feelings for Jordan could reignite her love for dance?

Rakkaus alkaa rivien välistä. Bestseller-kirjailija Jasmine Guilloryn nykyaikaan tuotu versio lumoavasta sadusta, jossa kirjoja rakastava tyttö kohtaa väärinymmärretyn hirviön. Kun Isabelle valmistui yliopistosta ja aloitti uransa kustannusmaailmassa, hän ei kuvitellut hetkeäkään, että asuisi vielä 25-vuotiaana kotona vanhempiensa luona. Eipä hän arvannut sitäkään, että olisi yhä yksi kustantamon harvoista mustista työntekijöistä. Palkka on pieni ja kilpailu kovaa, ja Izzy alkaa kyseenalaistaa ammatinvalintaansa. Unelmista luopumisen sijaan hän kuitenkin tarttuu viimeiseen oljenkorteen, joka saattaa viedä hänen uraansa oikeaan suuntaan: hän lupautuu hoputtamaan hankalana pidettyä tähteä, jonka käsikirjoitus on pahasti myöhässä. Santa Barbaran ylellisessä kartanossa häntä onkin vastassa äreä ja vetäytyvä Beau Towers, joka ei kaipaa henkilökohtaista kannustajaa. Izzy ei silti suostu antamaan periksi, ja vähitellen oikeat sanat ja teot alkavat synnyttää paitsi käsikirjoitusta myös ystävyyttä ja kipinöitä. Mutta valmistuuko käsikirjoitus ajoissa ja uskaltaako Beau avata sydämensä?” Lue minut oikein” on leikkisä ja lämminsydäminen romaani oman äänen löytämisestä, kuuntelemisen taidosta sekä tietenkin rakkaudesta. Jasmine Guillory on kalifornialainen kirjailija, joka tunnetaan lämpimän humoristisista mutta oivaltavista romaaneistaan. ”Lue minut oikein” on hänen ensimmäinen suomennettu teoksensa.

The next sparkling romantic comedy by New York Times bestselling author Jasmine Guillory. A fun and flirty novel for fans of Emily Henry, Christina Lauren and Tessa Bailey.

An intoxicating and sparkling new romance by New York Times bestselling author Jasmine Guillory. Margot Noble needs some relief from the stress of running the family winery with her brother. Enter Luke: sexy, charming, and best of all in the too-small world of Napa, a stranger. The chemistry between them is undeniable, and Margot is delighted that she lucked into the perfect one-night stand she'll never have to see again. That is, until the winery's newest hire, Luke, walks in the next morning. Margot is determined to keep things purely professional, but when their every interaction reminds her of the attraction still bubbling between them, it proves to be much more challenging than she expects. Luke Williams had it all, but when he quits his high-salary tech job in Silicon Valley in a blaze of burnout and moves back to Napa to help a friend, he realizes he doesn't want to tell the world--or his mom--why he's now working at a winery. His mom loves bragging about her successful son--how can he admit that the job she's so proud of broke him? Luke has no idea what is next for him, but one thing is certain: he wants more from the incredibly smart and sexy woman he hooked up with--even after he learns she's his new boss. But even if they can find a way to be together that wouldn't be an ethical nightmare, would such a successful woman really want a tech-world dropout? Set against a lush backdrop of Napa Valley wine country, nothing goes to your head as fast as a taste of love--even if it means changing all your plans.

Maddie og Theo har to ting til fælles. Det første er, at Alexa er deres bedste ven. Det andet er, at de hader hinanden. De får begge til opgave at hjælpe Alexa op til brylluppet, og derfor bliver det svært for dem at undgå at bruge mere tid sammen, end nogen af dem har lyst til. Men det er vigtigt for dem begge, at Alexa er tilfreds med deres indsats. Da Maddie og Theo ”kommer til” at kysse en enkelt gang, får de svært ved at lade være med at tænke på hinanden. De fortsætter indædt med at fornærme hinanden, når Alexa er i nærheden, men mens brylluppet hastigt nærmer sig, bliver det sværere og sværere for dem at holde tiltrækningen i skak. Men som altid, når man indlader sig med sin nemesis, er der uskrevne regler, der skal overholdes, og den vigtigste er, at man aldrig må forelske sig. FØR BRYLLUPPET er en ’hate to lovers’-historie med alt, hvad det indebærer af morsomme misforståelser og spændinger mellem hovedpersonerne. Jasmine Guillory beskriver den ulmende tiltrækning mellem dem, så man kan mærke varmen fra siderne.

Ben Stephens has never bothered with serious relationships. He has plenty of casual dates to keep him busy, family drama he's trying to ignore and his advertising job to focus on. When Ben lands a huge ad campaign featuring movie star, Anna Gardiner, however, it's hard to keep it purely professional. Anna is not just gorgeous and sexy, she's also down to earth and considerate, and he can't help flirting a little...

When the opportunity comes to turn their real-life fling into something more for the Hollywood spotlight, will Ben be content to play the background role in Anna's life and leave when the cameras stop rolling? Or could he be the leading man she needs to craft their own Hollywood ending?
