Hänen ystävänsä auttavat suuren spektaakkelin järjestämisessä - ja selvittävät samalla omia tunteitaan.Tarina taianomaisesta lumiyöstä muotoutuu kahdentoista nuoren kertojan omista, romanttisista hetkistä. Kukaan heistä ei osannut varautua tällaiseen myräkkään. Toisaalta kaiken muuttavia hetkiä ei voi koskaan täysin ennustaa. Sulattaako rakkaus kinokset?

Trapped at a luxurious resort off the coast of Florida, a group of elite teens are about to have a spring break they will never forget … but not all of them are coming home. The star-studded team of authors behind New York Times bestsellers Blackout and Whiteout returns with a thrillerfull of intrigue, betrayal, and heart-stopping romance. For Thurgood Marshall Academy's best and brightest–five friends who've been thick as thieves since kindergarten–this spring break is all about forgetting: they want nothing more than to wash away last year's tragedy, and the human-shaped hole it left in their friend group. It's a hole the new kid, Anthony Brooks, seems to fit right into. So when he invites the Five to join him on a private island for a week at his dad's luxury resort, they agree with zero hesitation. No one's counting on a freak tropical storm swooping in and killing the vibe. And speaking of killing, they're also ill-prepared for the mounting collection of dead bodies… including (another) one of their own. As their dream trip unravels, everything they tried to leave behind–secrets, lies, betrayals, dead best friends–seems to be washing up on the shore of their lives for everyone to see. Will any of them make it out alive? From the bestselling, award-winning team behind Blackout and Whiteout—Dhonielle Clayton, Tiffany D. Jackson, Nic Stone, Angie Thomas, Ashley Woodfolk, and Nicola Yoon—comes a thriller that begs the question: is it possible to outrun the worst thing you've ever done?

Not when my family is twelve hours away from being deported to Jamaica. Falling in love with him won't be my story. Daniel: I've always been the good son, the good student, living up to my parents' high expectations. Never the poet. Or the dreamer. But when I see her, I forget about all that. Something about Natasha makes me think that fate has something much more extraordinary in store--for both of us. The Universe: Every moment in our lives has brought us to this single moment. A million futures lie before us. Which one will come true? *** "Beautifully crafted." --People "A book that is very much about the many factors that affect falling in love, as much as it is about the very act itself. . . . Fans of Yoon's first novel, Everything Everything, will find much to love--if not, more--in what is easily an even stronger follow up." --Entertainment Weekly "Transcends the limits of YA as a human story about falling in love and seeking out our futures." --POPSUGAR.com

Everything Yoon touches turns to gold—and gets a film adaptation—and this cinematic supernatural romance will be no exception.Booklist, Starred ReviewNicola Yoon on Jamaikalla ja Brooklynissa varttunut kirjailija ja toivoton romantikko. Hänen aikaisemmat nuortenromaaninsa Aurinko on tähti ja Kaikki kaikessa ovat olleet suuria menestyksiä ja molemmista on tehty elokuva. Yoon on myös innokas laulamaan karaokea - mutta ei, hän ei osaa laulaa. Onneksemme hänen kirjansa soivat sitäkin kauniimmin!

AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "A charming, wholehearted love story that's sure to make readers swoon."--Entertainment Weekly "Nicola Yoon writes from the heart in this beautiful love story."--Good Morning America "It's like an emotional gut punch--so beautiful and also heart-wrenching."--US Weekly In this romantic page-turner from the author of Everything, Everything and The Sun is Also a Star, Evie has the power to see other people's romantic fates--what will happen when she finally sees her own? Evie Thomas doesn't believe in love anymore. Especially after the strangest thing occurs one otherwise ordinary afternoon: She witnesses a couple kiss and is overcome with a vision of how their romance began . . . and how it will end. After all, even the greatest love stories end with a broken heart, eventually. As Evie tries to understand why this is happening, she finds herself at La Brea Dance Studio, learning to waltz, fox-trot, and tango with a boy named X. X is everything that Evie is not: adventurous, passionate, daring. His philosophy is to say yes to everything--including entering a ballroom dance competition with a girl he's only just met. Falling for X is definitely not what Evie had in mind. If her visions of heartbreak have taught her anything, it's that no one escapes love unscathed. But as she and X dance around and toward each other, Evie is forced to question all she thought she knew about life and love. In the end, is love worth the risk?

Evie Thomas favoritgenre är romance. Eller det var det i alla fall. Tills hennes föräldrar skilde sig. Nu har berättelserna liksom tappat all magi. Och så händer det där konstiga – när hon ser ett par kyssas ser hon hela deras förhållande. Från första flirten till att de gör slut. För det gör de nio gånger av tio. Evies enda ledtråd till varför hon plötsligt har den här förmågan är ett häfte med dansinstruktioner och en adress till en dansstudio.Vågar hon gå dit? Vågar hon släppa loss passionen i en tango? Och kommer hon att våga tro att en förälskelse kan sluta lyckligt? Plocka fram era mest förälskade flin och en liten trave näsdukar – båda kommer väl till pass!Nicola Yoon slog igenom med dunder och brak 2016 med debuten Ingenting och allting (Everything, Everything) som följdes upp med lika fantastiska Idag är allt (The Sun is Also a Star). Båda blev bestsellers och film. Hennes berättelser har alltid en ABBA-låt i sig. Läs, se och njut av de här roliga, smarta och gråtdrivande böckerna!
