The Gravity of Us
They say some people aren't meant to be together.
That Graham and I were too different to ever make any sense. I was driven by emotion; he kept his walls high. I dreamed of a brighter future; he passed his days in nightmares.
Despite all that, we sometimes shared seconds. Seconds when our eyes locked and we saw each other's secrets. Seconds when his lips tasted my fears, and I breathed in his pain. Seconds when we both imagined what it would be like to love one another.
But Graham Russell wasn't a man who knew how to love, and I wasn't a woman who knew how to stay. Yet if I had the chance to fall again, I'd fall with him forever.
Even if we were always destined to crash against solid ground.

Pán Výnimočný
On je obávaný žralok v právnickej firme, ona jeho nová podriadená
Už mesiac zarezávam v najväčšej právnickej firme v Chicagu, večne vyzbrojená Starbucksom a ochotná v práci aj nocovať. Práve stojím vo výťahu a dvere sa zatvárajú, ibaže v poslednej chvíli nastúpi pán Výnimočný, Hudson Rhodes. Ten bezcitný mačo a partner firmy, ktorému som sa mala oblúkom vyhýbať, je čírou náhodou aj môj šéf. Odkedy zistil, že som Scarlett Elwoodová, dcéra spoluzakladateľa firmy, sme na nože. Stali sa z nás presne tí nepriatelia, ktorí na seba cez deň v zasadačke štekajú a po nociach o tom druhom snívajú.
Dorazíme na naše poschodie, výťah zacinká. Hudson sa ku mne priblíži. Zúrivosť sa mieša s obavami, nenávisť s túžbou. Nakrátko sa otočí a zachytí môj pohľad, potom sebaisto vykročí dopredu. Jeho odkaz je jasný: Ak chcem dosiahnuť svoj cieľ, najprv si musím poradiť s ním.

Az éves kirándulás, amelyre Archie a legjobb barátaival, Simonnal és Effie-vel szokott elutazni, szent helyet foglal el mindegyikük naptárában.

A herceg és a lányka
2019, Budapest. Nóri, a fiatal gitárművész különös ajándékot kap a tizennyolcadik születésnapjára az édesanyjától: egy régi floppylemezt, amit meg sem tud nyitni. A lány mindent elkövet, hogy megtudja, mit rejt a lemez, mert ez az egyetlen lehetősége arra, hogy rátaláljon az apjára, akivel soha életében nem találkozott, és akiről jóformán semmit nem tud. Hamarosan kiderül, hogy az adathordozón egy regény kézirata található, egy Beethoven korabeli szerelem története, amelynek két szereplőjét a muzsikus zenéje hozta össze. Nóri merész elhatározásra jut, de ahhoz, hogy a tervei megvalósulhassanak, Berlinbe kell utaznia.
1800, Poroszország. Frieda, a jómódú berlini hugenotta család lánya vidéken nyaralva ismeri meg a szomszédos kastélyban vendégeskedő porosz királyi herceget, aki egyszerre hadvezér, zeneszerző és zongoraművész. Frieda életét szintén a zene határozza meg, ám hiába rendkívül tehetséges, lány lévén még csak nem is álmodhat arról, hogy zongoraművész legyen. Amikor rádöbben, hogy a javíthatatlan szoknyavadász hírében álló herceg, aki olyan elérhetetlennek látszott számára, mintha a holdon élne, viszonozza az érdeklődését, hiába tudja, hogy nem lehet helye a férfi életében, igent mond erre a logikátlan, jövőtlen, de annál szenvedélyesebb szerelemre. Kettejük nevét mindössze egy Beethoven-darab köti össze, és a titok, amelyet a herceg magával visz, amikor a porosz seregek élén harcba indul Napóleon ellen.
Mörk Leonóra részben napjainkban játszódó, részben a múltba kalandozó, váratlan fordulatokban és zenetörténeti érdekességekben bővelkedő regénye két megkapó szerelem sokszólamú története, amelyben Beethoven muzsikája játssza a főszerepet.
MÖRK LEONÓRA író, újságíró, szerkesztő, műfordító, éveken át az Elle főszerkesztő-helyetteseként, illetve a Nők Lapja vezető szerkesztőjeként dolgozott. Regényeiben nem elégszik meg azzal, hogy elmesél egy magával ragadó történetet, hanem izgalmas kultúrtörténeti kalandozásra is hívja olvasóit.
Milujete zamilované príbehy plné vášnivého iskrenia? Vybrali sme také, kde sa miesia osudové vyznania i sklamanie. Nechajte sa uniesť vo víroch vášne a tá pravá láska dozrie v pravý čas. Veď čarovný princ niekedy potrebuje len osudové stretnutie.
