About this book

»Solange dein Herz schlägt, bist du okay« – der Booktok-Megaerfolg erstmals auf Deutsch! Als Cora die Geburtstagsparty ihrer Schwester verlässt, erwartet sie höchstens einen schlimmen Kater. Womit sie nicht rechnet, ist ein gestohlenes Portemonnaie und dass ausgerechnet Dean, der unausstehliche Verlobte ihrer Schwester, sie nach Hause fahren muss. Womit sie auch nicht rechnet, ist, nach einem Unfall an Dean gefesselt im Keller eines Fremden aufzuwachen. Cora und Dean müssen sich gemeinsam ihrem schlimmsten Albtraum stellen. Diese traumatische Erfahrung wird ihnen alles abverlangen – sie wird die Grenzen zwischen Hass und Liebe nachhaltig verwischen und sie beide mehr aneinanderbinden, als Ketten es je vermochten ... Bei diesem Buch handelt es sich um Dark-Thriller-Romance mit düsteren Themen und einer Leseempfehlung ab 18 Jahren. Im Buch sind Triggerwarnungen enthalten. Books that make you – blush.
