Emily Rath

Tess Owensové je třiatřicet, má za sebou rozvod i životní období, které by nejradši nechala navždy za sebou. Když uteče od bývalého manžela a začne znovu na Floridě u své kamarádky, doufá hlavně v klid, bezpečí a nový začátek. Místo toho potká Ryana Langleye, hokejistu týmu Jacksonville Rays. Ryan je mladší, okouzlující a působí trochu jako bezstarostné štěně na pláži – jenže pod tím vším se skrývá někdo, kdo přesně ví, co chce. A co chce, je Tess. Přestože je mezi nimi desetiletý věkový rozdíl a na první pohled se zdá, že nemají skoro nic společného, Ryan je odhodlaný přesvědčit ji, že na věku nezáleží a že minulost nemusí rozhodovat o budoucnosti. Nájezdy od Emily Rath jsou příběhem o tom, že láska může přijít ve chvíli, kdy ji člověk čeká nejméně – a že druhá šance může být mnohem lepší než první pokus.

Třiatřicetiletá Tess Owensová, rozvedená žena s pár kily navíc, začíná znovu. Na útěku před bývalým manželem se usadí v novém městě u kamarádky na Floridě a setkává s Ryanem Langleym, hokejistou týmu Jacksonville Rays. Roztomilý? To on určitě je, asi jako štěně, co si hraje na pláži. Ale taky je o deset let mladší než ona a nemají vůbec nic společného. Jenže Tess je pro Ryana dívka snů a on je připravený jí dokázat, že na věku nezáleží, že naše minulost nerozhoduje o tom, kdo jsme, a že dva mínusy dají někdy dohromady jedno velké plus.
