Jane Green - Mr. ​Talány
Libby ​úgy dönt, hogy nem lesz többé őrülten szerelmes, mostantól fogva csak szexet vár el a férfiaktól, semmi többet… Nick éppen kapóra jön neki egy kis hancúrozáshoz, csakhogy nincs egy vasa sem. Ed mindezzel szemben befektetési bankár, pénze mint a pelyva... csak ne lenne olyan gyámoltalan. Libbynek döntenie kell: házasságra lépjen a pénzzel és a gazdagsággal vagy a szívére hallgasson? Jane Green legújabb bestsellerét ezúttal is magyarországi „házi kiadója”, a Trivium kínálja az olvasóknak.
