Amy comincia a seguire le lezioni alla Brown University, il college al quale si è iscritta con molto entusiasmo, ignara di quello che avrebbe avuto affrontare. Fino a qualche giorno prima, era decisa a concentrarsi sui libri, ma dopo aver conosciuto Tex Pratt, il ragazzo più bello e maledetto del campus, non può evitare di pensare a lui. Corteggiata insistentemente dal suo amico Will, spinta a partecipare a ogni party delle confraternite dalla sua compagna di stanza Leah, ovunque vada Amy si ritrova faccia a faccia con Tex. Lui la provoca, la stuzzica in continuazione. Il suo passatempo preferito è giocare con le ragazze della Brown, collezionare avventure da una notte. La gelosia inizia a insinuarsi nel cuore di Amy: capisce di essersi presa una cotta spaventosa per Tex, come quasi ogni ragazza del campus, ma sa anche che è una follia perché con uno come Terence Pratt lei soffrirà soltanto. Così accetta di uscire con Will. Ma Tex non è il tipo che rinuncia a quello che vuole e lui vuole Amy Glover. Tra i due amici della confraternita dei Delta Sigma, ha inizio una lotta senza esclusione di colpi, per conquistare la ragazza che in realtà ha già deciso con chi stare. Amy ha paura dell’amore, a causa di quello che ha passato con Austin, il suo ex ragazzo, ma Tex non mollerà finché lei non sarà sua. EVER COMPLETE SERIES (Serie completa in volume unico) EVER 1 AFTER YOU EVER 2 BEFORE YOU EVER 3 AGAIN YOU EVER 4 OVER YOU EVER 5 ALWAYS YOU Tex non è come appare, un bastardo che ama giocare con i sentimenti delle donne. So che non è così, anche se tutti pensano che io sia soltanto un’illusa a credere di essere qualcosa di speciale per lui. Rimaniamo a scrutarci negli occhi, per infiniti attimi. È lui a parlare per primo. «Perché sei uscita con Will Tucker?» «E tu perché sei uscito con quella ragazza?» ribatto, considerando che anche io sono gelosa. Lui lo sa, oramai è inutile mentire a noi stessi. Mi si avvicina, i suoi occhi non mi sono mai sembrati così blu come in questo momento. Vorrei dirgli quello che provo, che soffro e sto male da morire ogni volta che lo vedo con un’altra, ma non ci riesco. Tex lo capisce. In un attimo mi abbraccia, senza darmi il tempo di reagire. Non mi allontano, amo il calore del suo corpo. La sua bocca raggiunge la mia e ci baciamo. È uno di quei baci che soltanto lui sa dare, che mi fanno quasi svenire. Adesso lo so, è Tex l’unico ragazzo con cui potrei stare, e mi maledico per questo, perché non dovrei neppure avvicinarmi a uno come lui. Ma non posso farne a meno. Mi sono persa dentro i suoi occhi blu dalla prima volta che l’ho visto. Tex Pratt è diventato la mia ossessione.
The official prequel novel to the hit Umbrella Academy series on Netflix, starring a teenaged Umbrella Academy in an original, darkly comic adventure written by New York Times bestselling author Alyssa Sheinmel. The Umbrella Academy has always been extraordinary—ready to leap to superpowered action at a moment’s notice. But now that Five has disappeared and their fame has crested, sometimes the only thing Luther, Diego, Allison, Klaus, Ben, and Viktor want is to be normal. . . which is much easier said than done, when you’re raised by someone like Hargreeves. For their exacting and tyrannical father figure, nothing is ever enough; which is why, during a dinnertime debriefing on their latest mission, Ben snaps, prompting Klaus to suggest that they all need a change of scenery—just one night of partying like a bunch of average teens. In fact, Klaus knows just the place; there’s a frat house in a neighboring college town that throws weekend blowouts. What could go wrong? They soon realize sneaking out of Hargreeves’s house—er, fortress—is the least of their concerns. When the six teens pledge not to use their powers under any circumstances, they fail to factor in the sheer force of teen drama. Faced with weird earthquakes, weirder partygoers, and a possible new foe, the Umbrella Academy must choose between the night they always dreamed of and an unexpected mission that may save the world and—finally—secure Hargreeves’s approval.
