Titolo: Butterfly Dreams
Autore: A. Meredith Walters
Genere: Contemporary Romance |
In a powerful romance hailed as “heartbreaking, real, and breathtakingly beautiful” by Stacey Lynn, New York Times bestselling author A. Meredith Walters tells the story of a troubled young woman and the unforgettable guy who teaches her to live—and love—to the fullest.
She’s waiting to die. . . Corin Thompson is paralyzed by her obsession with mortality. Having lost both of her parents, she is terrified by the idea that she too will die young, and she loses control at any sign of illness. But when Corin connects with someone who has survived a very real brush with death, she begins to see the world in a whole new way.
He’s learning to live. . . As Corin struggles under the weight of her neuroses, Beckett Kingsley is attempting to rebuild a life that feels all too temporary. With the ever-present threat of heart failure never far from his mind, he just wants to make the most of whatever time he has left. And that means pursuing the girl he never expected to find.
Together, Corin and Beckett finally learn to let go of their fears and take solace in everyday pleasures. Who knows what the future holds? After all, nothing lasts forever—the only promise they have is right now.
“All the feels: poignant, funny, sad, beautiful, and inspiring! Your own belly butterflies will take flight.”—New York Times bestselling author Katy Evans
“A. Meredith Walters is the author I turn to when I want to get sucked into a beautiful story that packs an emotional punch.”—New York Times bestselling author Sawyer Bennett
“Butterfly Dreams is one of the most poignant books I’ve read all year. It’s heartbreaking, real, and breathtakingly beautiful. A. Meredith Walters weaves a story that draws you in from the very first page and refuses to let you go even once it’s finished.”—Stacey Lynn, author of the Nordic Lords series
“The ending nearly killed me, but I survived. I read this book in one sitting, and what a roller coaster of a story. The author did an amazing job. . . . I found myself unable to put the book down.”—The Book Hookup
LEGGI L'ESTRATTO
My doorbell rang.
What?
I looked at the clock and realized it was already 7:30.
So that meant it was Beckett on the other side of the door.
Shit.
I looked down at my half-naked body.
Shit!
And then I started freaking out.
“I’ll be right there!” I yelled.
Should I let him in?
But I was practically naked!
I couldn’t let him see me like this!
Maybe I should own it. Shake my hips and let him get a look at
the goods.
Like that would ever happen.
Crap, what was I going to wear?
I grabbed a pair of jeans from my floor and wiggled them on, not
really paying attention to which ones they were.
I reached into my closet and pulled the closest shirt off the
rack. I tied my hair into a ponytail and slipped on a comfortable pair of
ballet flats.
I hoped Beckett hadn’t planned on five-star dining because I was
dressed more for a McDonalds milkshake before hanging with the bowling league.
“Sorry,” I said, out of breath, opening the door and letting
Beckett inside.
“I was starting to think I needed to break in and make sure you
hadn’t gotten stuck in the toilet or something.” Beckett looked damn near
perfect in a dark pair of jeans and button-up blue shirt the same color as his
eyes.
He had even gotten a haircut. Way to make me feel like
a total underachiever in the getting ready department, buddy.
“Looks like you cut yourself,” I said, indicating the piece of
toilet paper stuck to his chin.
“Fuck. I forgot about that,” he muttered, pulling it off,
looking embarrassed.
“You should have left it there. It’s cute,” I teased, putting on
my black wool coat.
“You ready?” he asked.
“As I’ll ever be.” I gave him a wide smile and he laughed.
“I’m not taking you to your death by firing squad. You could act
a bit more excited.”
I jumped up and down, clapping my hands together. “OMG, Beck! I
can’t wait!” I gasped.
“Is that better?” I asked, closing my apartment door behind me
and locking it.
“Much.” Beckett leaned down and I swear he was checking out my
ass.
“Excuse me, but what in the hell are you doing?” I demanded.
“Are you aware that the Cheshire cat is on your right butt
cheek?”
I craned my body to get a look at what he was talking about. And
sure enough, there was a bright purple patch with the damn Cheshire cat on my
derriere.
“I must have picked up the wrong jeans,” I groaned. These were
my hanging-out-doing-laundry jeans. Not meant to be seen by anyone but myself
and the cat.
“I was in a rush. I couldn’t figure out what to wear. It was
stressful,” I tried to explain, pulling my coat down over my feline-covered
bum.
“The last thing I want is to stress you out, Cor-Cor.”
I smacked his arm. “I thought I warned you about using that damn
nickname,” I threatened.
“I show up with toilet paper stuck to my face
and you have a cat on your butt. I think we make a pretty awesome pair,”
Beckett snickered, unlocking his car.
