La signora Ava Southerly, assistente farmacista e vedova, vive nella paura. È diventata un'esperta nel nascondersi per tenere le sue premonizioni sotto controllo.

Pur credendo nella logica e nei fatti tangibili, il tempo in compagnia di Ava gli dimostra quanto si sbagli. Quando uno spirito ultracentenario si impossessa di Douglas per uccidere Ava, la bella strega e il dottore devono trovare un modo di sventare la minaccia venuta dell'oltretomba a rischio delle proprie vite. Mentre il loro rapporto evolve in qualcosa di profondo e duraturo, i due scopriranno la forza dell'amore.
L'Assistente del Milionario
by Sierra Rose Livia RomanoMi chiamo Abigail Wilder. Eccezionale esperta di Pubbliche Relazioni. Un nome, nel mio campo. Una vera salvezza per i miei clienti. Una benedizione dalla lingua tagliente per coloro che mi assumono e una maledizione per coloro che mi intralciano la strada. (Tutte cose scritte sul mio bigliettino da visita, in così tante parole.) Ma per lui, il mio cliente più importante, ero soltanto Abby. E per me, lui era Nick. Nick mi teneva occupata con le sue imprese azzardate e i modi da playboy. Si metteva di continuo nei guai, e il mio lavoro era quello di tirarlo fuori e ripulirlo per farlo apparire sotto una luce positiva. Una vera e propria spina nel sedere! Troppo selvaggio per i miei gusti. O almeno questo credevo, finché il Consiglio della multinazionale di famiglia non mi ha chiesto di trovargli una fidanzata per salvare l’immagine dell’azienda. Perché, da quel momento in poi, mi sono improvvisamente trovata di fronte a una pericolosa questione. Qualcosa che non sapevo neppure spiegarmi. Un sentimento sopito da anni, aveva finalmente scalfito la mia apparente armatura. Il problema a quel punto era: come fare per trovare a Nick una finta fidanzata senza correre il rischio che a lui potesse mai piacere sul serio? Che l’indomabile playboy non si innamorasse per davvero?
