Going Under (Going Under, #1) de Georgia Cates

EN: Jessie Boone is a self proclaimed bad boy and doesn’t march to the beat of anyone’s drum, but his own. Growing up in less than desirable circumstances has made him no stranger to the hard knock life and his determination to leave it behind is fierce. When he finds himself transferred to East Franklin High School, he sees his opportunity to use his athletic ability to snag a college football scholarship, but Forbes Henderson, the player Jessie means to replace isn’t giving up his spot willingly. In fact, Forbes is willing to go to extreme measures to retain his place as first string quarterback. When Forbes’ malicious plan to injure his replacement fails, Jessie is furious and determined to show him he messed with the wrong person; not only is he going to take the position of first string quarterback, he’s going to take his girl, too.

Claire Deveraux is perfection at it’s best. She is beautiful, intelligent and unaware she just became Jessie Boone’s conquest as revenge against her boyfriend, Forbes Henderson. Like her flawless performance as the perfect daughter and student, Claire’s production of being the perfect girlfriend has everyone fooled, except Jessie Boone, and she fears this tattooed bad boy will see her secret desire to explore his crude threats and promises to rock her perfect world. If she decides to give in to one uninhibited moment with Jessie, will she learn too late that it was all an act of vengeance or will Jessie learn the taste of first love is sweeter than that of revenge?

RO: Jessie Boone este un baiat rau auto proclamat si nu traieste la ritmul tobei oricui, ci doar la a lui. Crescand in niste circumstante foarte dezirabile, el a devenit constient de viata grea, iar determinarea lui sa o lase in urma este puternica. Cand se trezeste transferat la liceul East Franklin, el zareste oportunitatea sa isi foloseasca abilitatile atletice pentru a prinde o bursa de fotbal pentru colegiu, insa Forbes Henderson, jucatorul pe care Jessie vrea sa-l inlocuiasca, nu isi cedeaza locul de bunavoie. De fapt, Forbes este dispus sa ajunga la masuri extreme pentru a-si pastra locul ca fundas in primul sir. Cand planul rau al lui Forbes de a-l rani pe inlocuitorul sau da gres, Jessie este furios si determinat sa-i arate ca sa pus cu cine nu trebuie; nu numai ca ii va lua pozitia de fundas in primul sir, dar ii va lua si iubita.

Claire Deveraux este perfectiunea la cel mai inalt nivel. Este frumoasa, inteligenta si neconstienta de faptul ca a devenit cucerirea lui Jessie Boone ca razbunare impotriva iubitului ei, Forbes Henderson. Precum perfecta ei performanta ca si fiica si studenta, prefacerea lui Claire de a fi iubita perfecta a pacalit pe toata lumea, exceptandu-l pe Jessie Boone, si se teme ca acest baiat tatuat ii va descoperi secretul ei de a explora amenintarile lui crude si promisiunile ca ii va zgudui lumea ei perfecta. Daca se decide sa cedeze unui moment fara inhibitii cu Jessie, va descoperi ea prea tarziu ca totul a fost doar un numar de razbunare sau Jessie va invata ca gustul primei iubiri este mai dulce decat acela al razbunarii ?

Shallow (Going Under #2) de Georgia Cates va fi publicata pe 27 Septembrie 2012.

EN: Nick Hawke likes his car fast and his girls even faster. He blows through females quicker than his muscle car races down the drag strip in Collinsville and he wouldn’t have it any other way. Determined to avoid the devastation he has watched his father endure in the aftermath of his mother leaving, he believes there is no room in his life or his heart for a relationship lasting more than one night. He seeks happiness in things that won’t let him down...fast cars, parties and one night stands. To his absolute dismay, all of that changes when he unexpectedly runs into an old friend and is introduced to Payton Archer, the first girl he ever wanted for more than one night. There’s only one catch...she is completely immune to him and his smooth talking ways.

Payton Archer is looking for what Claire has with Jessie, but she has given up on finding it...at least until she leaves for college in the Fall because she is certain that is where she will find the perfect guy to fit into her perfect world. She plans on Summer being nothing but three uneventful months of fun, but it turns out to be anything but ordinary when Payton is introduced to Nick Hawke, one of Jessie’s old Collinsville friends. She is shocked by her immediate and intense attraction for “Hawke” because nothing about him is what Payton is looking for. Sure, he’s hot and sexy but he comes from Collinsville and that is definitely not on her list of prerequisites. Everything about him makes Payton’s heart speed because he is exciting and dangerous, but his fast car and the dangerous chances he takes isn’t what scares Payton the most...it’s the way Nick Hawke makes her feel every time he looks at her. Can Payton find that moment of total fearlessness and make the decision to leave the safe, shallow end of love to risk going under completely?

RO: Lui Nick Hawke ii place atunci cand masina lui e rapida, iar iubitele lui chiar si mai rapide. Trece de la femeie la femeie mai repede decat cursele lui cu masini pe banda de coborare din Collinsville si nu-si doreste sa traiasca alt fel. Determinat sa evite devastarea pe care a trebuit sa o indure tatal sau atunci cand mama lui a plecat, el crede ca nu este loc in viata lui sau in inima lui pentru o relatie care sa dureze mai mult de o noapte. El cauta fericirea in lucruri care nu-l vor dezamagi… masini rapide, petreceri si aventuri de o noapte. La absoluta lui spaima, toate astea se schimba cand pe neasteptate se intalneste cu un vechi prieten si este introdus lui Payton Archer, prima fata pe care a dorit-o pentru mai mult de o noapte. Este o singura capcana… ea este complet imuna lui si farmecelor sale.

Payton Archer cauta ceea ce Claire a avut cu Jessie, dar ea a renuntat sa mai caute… macar pana cand pleaca la colegiu in toamna, deoarece este sigura ca acolo va gasi tipul perfect care sa se potriveasca in lumea ei perfecta. Ea planuieste ca vara sa fie nimic mai mult decat trei luni monotone de distractie, dar se pare ca vara va fi orice altceva decat obisnuita atunci cand Payton este introdusa lui Nick Hawke, unul dintre prietenii vechi ai lui Jessie din Collinsvile. Ea este socata de instanta si intensa atractie pe care o simte pentru Hawke , deoarece nu exista nimic la el din ceea ce Payton cauta. Desigur, e fierbinte si sexy, dar el vine din Collinsville iar asta sigur nu se afla pe lista ei de premise. Totul despre el ii face inima lui Payton sa alerge, pentru ca el este captivant si periculos, dar masina lui rapida si riscurile periculoase pe care si le asuma nu sunt ceea ce o sperie cel mai mult pe Payton… este felul in care Nick Hawke o face sa se simta de fiecare data cand se uita la ea. Poate Payton sa gaseasca acel moment de totala indrazneala si sa faca decizia de a parasi superficialul sfarsit de dragoste si sa riste sa se afunde complet?
