Tri ženy, tri rande a jedna prázdna stolička
Siobhan je temperamentná životná koučka, ktorá si toho nabrala na plecia viac než dosť. Miranda je arboristka a už si zvykla, že kolegovia ju preto vnímajú ako chlapa. Utiahnutá Jane zas pracuje ako dobrovoľníčka v miestnom dobročinnom obchode a zišlo by sa jej viac sebaúcty. Tieto tri ženy sa navzájom nepoznajú a spája ich iba jedno: na všetky sa vykašlali v rovnaký deň, a ešte k tomu na Valentína! A vôbec netušia, že ide o toho istého muža.
Napriek všetkému mu dajú druhú šancu. Zaslúži si ju? Je v ňom vari viac, než sa na prvý pohľad zdá? A dozvedia sa pravdu, skôr než im zlomí srdce?
Z anglického originálu The No-Show (Quercus Editions Lts, London 2022) preložila Jana Seichertová.

Bepalizva
8 óra 52 perc. Siobhan alig várja a randiját Josephfel. Egy Valentin-napi reggeli azért már jelent valamit... De hol van ő? 14 óra 43 perc. Miranda őszintén reméli, hogy a Josephfel megbeszélt, Valentin-napi ebédrandi méltó alkalom lesz megünnepelni, hogy új munkája van. De hol késlekedik már a férfi? 18 óra 30 perc. Joseph megígérte, hogy eljátssza Jane partnerét a Valentin-napi eljegyzési bulin. Csakhogy nem jelenik meg a helyszínen... Három faképnél hagyott nő, és mindhármukat ugyanaz a férfi ültette fel. Mi ez, ha nem botrány? Beth O'Leary legújabb regénye egy igazán különleges, elképesztően bájos, szívszorító, mégis örömteli történet randizásról és várakozásról, illetve arról, hogy a szerelem milyen sokféle úton-módon találhat ránk.
Tři rande
Siobhan je temperamentní životní koučka. Miranda je sympatická arboristka. Jane je tichá dobrovolnice v charitativním obchodě. Tyto tři ženy se vzájemně neznají, přesto mají něco společného: Jejich přítel se na ně vykašlal v ten nejhorší čas – na Valentýna. A všechny navíc čekaly na téhož muže. Od tohoto dne už nic není jako dřív a každá z nich se vydává na cestu za poznáním pravdy: Kdo je Joseph Carter a mohou se do něj zamilovat, aniž by jim zlomil srdce?
Tři rande
Siobhan se těší na snídani s Josephem. Byla překvapená, když to navrhl… obvykle spolu tráví jen noci v hotelových pokojích. Rande na Valentýna určitě něco znamená… tak kde je? Miranda doufá, že valentýnský oběd s Carterem je ideální příležitost, jak oslavit jejich vztah. Chodí spolu pět měsíců a začíná to mezi nimi být vážné. Ale proč se neukázal? Joseph Carter slíbil, že doprovodí Jane na zásnubní večírek. Neznají se dlouho, ale jejich přátelství se rychle stává nejjasnější částí jejího nového života ve Winchesteru. On ale nepřišel! Joseph Carter bude mít co vysvětlovat… tedy pokud se objeví.

Dylan és a legjobb barátja ugyanarra az esküvőre hivatalos, mint ők, és mivel az autójuk totálkáros lett a balesetben, Addie-nek nincs más választása, mint hogy felajánlja: menjenek velük. Az autó egyhamar megtelik csomagokkal és titkokkal, Addie és Dylan pedig nem tehet mást az előttük álló hosszú úton, mint hogy szembenéz a kapcsolatuk zűrzavaros történetével. Vajon időben odaérnek az esküvőre? És ami még fontosabb… ez az utazás tényleg a közös útjuk végét jelenti?
The Switch
Leena is too young to feel stuck.
Eileen is too old to start over.
It's time for The Switch...
After blowing a big presentation at work, Leena takes a two-month sabbatical and escapes to her grandmother Eileen's house for some overdue rest. Eileen is newly single and about to turn eighty. She'd like a second chance at love, but her tiny Yorkshire village doesn't offer many eligible gentlemen . . . A life swap seems the perfect solution.
But with a rabble of unruly OAPs to contend with, as well as the distractingly handsome local schoolteacher, Leena learns that switching lives isn't straightforward. In London, Eileen is a huge hit with her new neighbours, and with the online dating scene. But is her perfect match nearer to home than she first thought?
The Switch
Eileen is sick of being 79.
Leena's tired of life in her twenties.
Maybe it's time they swapped places...
When overachiever Leena Cotton is ordered to take a two-month sabbatical after blowing a big presentation at work, she escapes to her grandmother Eileen's house for some overdue rest. Eileen is newly single and about to turn eighty. She'd like a second chance at love, but her tiny Yorkshire village doesn't offer many eligible gentlemen.
Once Leena learns of Eileen's romantic predicament, she proposes a solution: a two-month swap. Eileen can live in London and look for love. Meanwhile Leena will look after everything in rural Yorkshire. But with gossiping neighbours and difficult family dynamics to navigate up north, and trendy London flatmates and online dating to contend with in the city, stepping into one another's shoes proves more difficult than either of them expected.
Leena learns that a long-distance relationship isn't as romantic as she hoped it would be, and then there is the annoyingly perfect - and distractingly handsome - school teacher, who keeps showing up to outdo her efforts to impress the local villagers. Back in London, Eileen is a huge hit with her new neighbours, but is her perfect match nearer home than she first thought?
