The second book in the Rose Hills series by Sunday Times Bestselling author Elsie Silver.

FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR*, ELSIE SILVER! SET IN THE SAME BELOVED UNIVERSE AS SMASH-HIT SERIES CHESTNUT SPRINGS: SMALL-TOWN, BIG CHARACTERS, FOUR ADDICTIVE LOVE STORIES . . . MEET THE SINGLE DADS OF ROSE HILL. ''Elsie Silver''s writing is a true revelation!'' ALI HAZELWOOD''This book contains a hero to die for'' TESSA BAILEY----I''d always dreamed of my wedding day. But not like this. Not looking into the eyes of the man who betrayed me. But when my nephew''s guardianship is contested, I decide I''ll do whatever it takes to keep him in Rose Hill. Even if it means marrying the enemy. Rhys Dupris. A man who is secretive, broody, and completely infuriating. A man whose work takes him away for weeks on end and brings him back covered in mysterious bruises-ones he won''t talk about. In fact, we barely talk at all. Which would be fine, except when he''s not talking, he''s staring. And the way he looks at me is borderline indecent. The tension between us has always been palpable. But living under the same roof is a dangerous temptation. I swore I would never forgive him. But that was before I knew the man behind the mask. The one who''s fierce and protective. The one who''s gentle and patient. The one who shows up for us when we need him most. He''s not at all who I thought he was. And that makes hating my husband so much harder... and loving him just a little too easy.

Austen''s most popular novel, the unforgettable story of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. DarcyFew have failed to be charmed by the witty and independent spirit of Elizabeth Bennet in Austens beloved classic Pride and Prejudice. When Elizabeth Bennet first meets eligible bachelor Fitzwilliam Darcy, she thinks him arrogant and conceited; he is indifferent to her good looks and lively mind. When she later discovers that Darcy has involved himself in the troubled relationship between his friend Bingley and her beloved sister Jane, she is determined to dislike him more than ever. In the sparkling comedy of manners that follows, Jane Austen shows us the folly of judging by first impressions and superbly evokes the friendships, gossip and snobberies of provincial middle-class life. This Penguin Classics edition, based on Austen''s first edition, contains the original Penguin Classics introduction by Tony Tanner and an updated introduction and notes by Viven Jones.

Amb estudi introductori, comentaris de text i propostes didactiques de Joan Martori.Amb Pilar Prim, Oller, en plena maduresa com a novel·lista, afronta el tema del desig de la dona, un assumpte que la literatura del XIX havia tractat des d'una perspectiva merament romantica. En aquesta obra, pero, trobem un nou enfocament que serveix per remarcar els condicionaments i les sancions legals i morals que el context social de començament del segle XX imposava a la dona. Un altre element rebla la condicio de modernitat de l'obra: amb l'afany d'incorporar-se al model de novel·la que apliquen els narradors del moment, el tractament que fa Oller dels personatges prefigura el desenvolupament posterior de la novel·la psicologica.
