Then Ada meets a man whose invention might just change the world - and he needs her visionary brilliance to bring it to life....

Beau Slater sure brings the fireworks. Too bad they’re not the good kind. My brother’s best friend was so smoking hot, he blew up our small-town graduation night with one humiliating almost-kiss. It took me five years, one potential dream job, and three thousand miles to diffuse that horrifying memory. So when my worst enemy and I are forced together by our meddling mothers for a first-ever Christmas in July, I can’t risk Beau reigniting my heart. Which means I’m probably supremely stupid to enlist him in my plot to teach our manipulative families a lesson.

My agent has this idea—an insanely bad idea—to reboot my Hollywood heartthrob status by having my long-lost love dump me… while I'm proposing to her on national TV. The theory? Women everywhere will swoon over poor Lincoln James, scrambling to repair his vulnerable, shattered heart. Trouble is, I don't have any kind of love—long, lost, or otherwise.

La biografía comienza en medio de la batalla, allí donde el santo siempre estuvo, sobre todo en su vida espiritual, como soldado de Jesús. No es fácil encerrar en unas cuantas páginas la vida de San Ignacio de Loyola, pero eso se ha pretendido, hacer un resumen novelado de los acontecimientos que forjaron a uno de los grandes santos de la iglesia, cuya repercusión aún alcanza en nuestros tiempos, no solamente con su gran fundación, la Compañía de Jesús, sino con sus ejercicios ignacianos.

Until him.
