Kirsty Greenwood

Rakkautta tuonpuoleisessaKirsty Greenwoodin kepeän koukuttavassa romanttisessa komediassa Kunnes kuolema meidät yhdistää kuollut nainen saa uuden mahdollisuuden elämään ja rakkauteen. Ennen kuin Delphie ehtii edes tajuta kuolleensa, hän huomaa istuvansa yöpaidassaan tuonpuoleisen odotushuoneessa edessään kuumin mies, jonka on koskaan nähnyt. Ja mies hymyilee hänelle. Delphie alkaa jutella kuumalle miehelle, ja kaikki muu katoaa. Mutta sitten joku alkaa kailottaa jotain valtavasta virheestä ja mies lähetetään takaisin maan pinnalle. Delphielle tarjotaan sopimusta, jossa hän voi palata takaisin elämään ja ottaa mieheen yhteyttä. Sopimuksen mukaan hänellä on kymmenen päivää aikaa saada mies rakastumaan itseensä. Ihan helppoa! Tilannetta tosin hiukan hankaloittaa se, että mies täytyy ensin etsiä Lontoon ihmisvilinästä eikä tämä muista koskaan edes tavanneensa Delphietä... Kirsty Greenwoodin Kunnes kuolema meidät yhdistää on riemastuttavan hauska tarina naisesta, jolle elämän päättyminen onkin vasta alkua. Kirjailija Kirsty Greenwood on kirjoittanut useita bestsellerlistoille päätyneitä romanttisia komedioita poikkeuksellisesta rakkaudesta. Silloin kun hän ei kirjoita kirjoja, hän säveltää musikaaleja, kokkaa uusia reseptejä vaihtelevalla menestyksellä tai seikkailee ympäri Lontoota, jossa asuu miehensä kanssa. Kunnes kuolema meidät yhdistää on ollut valtava BookTok-hitti ja se on ensimmäinen Greenwoodilta suomennettu teos. Paraikaa Greenwood kirjoittaa uutta kirjaa, joka ilmestyy suomeksi vuonna 2026.

Gertie Bickerstaff writes happily-ever-afters for a living… or she did, until her own love life fell apart. Now her ex is thriving, her deadline is looming, and she can’t write a single word. The last thing Gertie needs is more drama—like waking up to find a confused and rugged cowboy on her sofa. And not just any cowboy, but River Oakley, the villain from her unfinished novel. Somehow very real… and very shirtless. River wants to go home. Gertie wants her life back. So they strike a deal: he’ll use his cunning ways to help her win back her ex, she’ll finish the novel, and surely, he’ll return to whatever world he rode in from. But as River Oakley proves to be so much more than just the bad guy, Gertie has to choose: the ending she thought she wanted… or the plot twist she never saw coming. _______________ The next laugh-out-loud and joyous romcom from the author of The Love of My Afterlife.

Romanttinen sankari on Kirsty Greenwoodin hilpeän suloinen romanttinen komedia, jossa kirjan hahmo herää eloon ja muuttaa kirjoittajansa elämän. Gertie Bickerstaff kirjoittaa työkseen suosittuja rakkausromaaneja... tai kirjoitti ennen kuin hänen poikaystävänsä Henry otti ja lähti. Nyt käsikirjoituksen deadline lähestyy, eikä Gertie pysty kirjoittamaan sanaakaan. Mutta eräänä yönä hän herää ja löytää sohvaltaan hämmentyneen, komean JA paidattoman (!!) cowboyn. Cowboy ei ole kuka tahansa vaan River Oakley, Gertien keskeneräisen romaanin kylmäsydäminen pahis. Kohtaamisen aiheuttaman alkushokin jälkeen he tekevät sopimuksen: River auttaa Gertietä saamaan Henryn takaisin, Gertie viimeistelee romaanin, ja River palaa siihen maailmaan, josta on tullut. Romaanin sivuille. Mutta kun käy ilmi, että River Oakley ei olekaan pelkkä ylimielinen cowboy, Gertien on tehtävä valinta: kirjoittaako loppu, jonka hän luuli haluavansa vai juonenkäänne, jota hän ei osannut odottaa…

Hiljuti surnud naine kohtab "seda õiget" hauataguse elu ooteruumis, saades uue võimaluse elule (ja armastusele!), kui ta leiab selle mehe Maa peal enne, kui kümme päeva on möödas... Kui Delphie poleks juba surnud, oleks ta piinlikkusest suremas. Vähe sellest, et ta suri mikroahjus ülessoojendatud burgeri tõttu lämbudes, seisab ta nüüd oma "SÄRA JA HIILGA" kirjaga öösärgis kõige kuumema mehe ees, keda ta üldse näinud on. Ja mees naeratab talle. Kui nad rääkima hakkavad, muutub kõik muu taustamüraks. Kuni keegi tuleb joostes uksest sisse, karjudes midagi kohutava eksituse kohta, ja saadab võõra tagasi Maa peale. Ja Delphie juba arvas, et tal võiks hauataguses elus rohkem õnne olla. Kui Delphiele pakutakse tehingut, millega ta saab Maa peale tagasi pöörduda ja proovida uuesti kohtuda salapärase mehega, haarab ta võimalusest leida hingesugulane ja alustada uut elu. Aga selles miljonilinnas peab naine kuulama oma südant, õppima abi paluma ja võib-olla isegi nägema erakordsust elus, mille ta jätab seljataha..." Selles raamatus on kõike.
