Reseña del libro "Eyes Wide Open (en Inglés)"
Filled with the heartbreaking messiness of falling in and out of love, this romance follows post-grad Livvy Hunnicutt as she faces laughs, adventures, and tears in the search for her happy ever after. Eyes Wide Open by Amanda G. Cannon picks up not long after Livvy graduates from Auburn University as a smart, sassy, and adventurous young woman. Vexed by her type 1 diabetes and Addison's disease, Livvy is a self-empowered young woman who will not let health issues control her life. Encouraged by her parents to think beyond her less-than-thrilling love life, Livvy's mom whisks her away to a Mexican vacation. While sunning and relaxing, a series of events will lead Livvy to unintentionally break a man's heart and find her way into the arms of a British entrepreneur. Poolside, Livvy meets Max Spencer who offers to wine and dine her in New York, Paris, and London. But on the streets of London, Livvy will learn that Max's banking job is actually a hazardous occupation marked by gunfire and media attacks. At her family's lake house where a movie based on her mother's novel is being filmed, Livvy meets Peter Weston, a British actor. Peter works his way into Livvy's heart when he glimpses her guardian angel during an acute health crisis the young man and woman experience together. Yet when she arrives in London to meet Peter's family, she is surprised to learn that acting is just a hobby of Peter's. In fact, he works for his father, a British business tycoon named Edward Weston. Unsure of how to respond to Peter's well-meaning omissions, she must figure out how to deal with the reality that he has deceived her about one of the most fundamental aspects of a person's life: their family. Pretty, sassy, and Southern, Livvy lives a life that never lacks for spectacular, over-the-top stories. Hampered by her health yet driven by her emotions and past experiences, Livvy tries with all of her might to stay away from heartbreak, yet she happens to stumble into the arms of a man and eventually, into love. This intriguing new novel packs a surprising amount of action and chance encounters with violence and bravery for a romance novel aimed at the women's market. Risking gun shots and death threats, Livvy is a new breed of feminine romance hero who is willing and ready to stand up for what she believes in, as well as herself, rather than let love rule her heart and mind. Emotional, captivating, and charismatic, Eyes Wide Open is a book whose young, irreverent protagonist, despite her attempts not to, finds love.
