La librairie des livres interdits

Marc Levy

Description

A middle aged housewife, lost in her perfect suburban existence. A lonely ivy league college grad with a musician's soul.

Brought together by chance, held together by attraction, one magic spring turns into a summer they will never forget.

"Simultaneously sweet and sexy."

Julia can't seem to put a finger on what's missing from her life. She has a successful husband, three happy children, and a beautiful home in an affluent neighborhood that she loves.

Why does she feel so alone? Why isn't everything she has enough to make her happy?

"I loved this story...The characters were believable and lifelike. I have to admit, I fell in love with Julia myself."

When Tyler, a tall, handsome college grad who is trying to get out from under the thumb of his wealthy father, moves in next door for the summer, he takes an immediate interest in Julia's daily life. She feels like a schoolgirl again. He fills her days with delight and her heart with passion in a way she thought was lost to her forever.

"...both titillating and romantic in the true sense of the word, difficult to achieve in this genre."

Tyler's pull on Julia's heartstrings is stronger than even her husband's, but is it stronger than her dedication to her children? Is their flirtation merely a crush, or could it–should it–be more?

"My heart was pounding and I couldn't put it down!"

This emotional romance takes you through the ups and downs of a summer affair between an older woman who is stuck in a troubled marriage and the younger man who offers her a second chance at life. Will their summer affair end in forever? Or will the commitment she has for her husband and her family put their new love in danger of heartbreak?
