Produktbeschreibung
From the bestselling author of "Prada the Cat" and "The Romantic" comes a mesmerizing exploration of love's innocence and the haunting power of memory. Tama Leia's signature lyrical prose creates a world where every moment feels both timeless and fragile. "Little Poets" is a coming-of-age tale of young love that traverses two continents, weaving an enchanting tapestry of destiny and desire. Set between the sun-drenched shores of California's magical coastline and the prestigious halls of The English Academy, this poignant story follows Chanel and Grey-two kindred spirits whose lives intertwine from their very first encounter at the tender age of seven. Through the tumultuous trials of childhood, Chanel fiercely defends Grey from the cruel stings of bullying, forging a bond that feels unbreakable-until fate intervenes, whisking her away to The English Academy, a prestigious boarding school nestled in the ancient countryside of England. While Chanel immerses herself in a world of literature and tradition across the Atlantic, Grey undergoes his own transformation under the guidance of an unexpected inheritance. When their paths cross again at seventeen, Chanel finds herself breathless before a young man whose understated sophistication bears little resemblance to the shy boy she once protected. His metamorphosis-evident in his graceful demeanor and gentle confidence-ignites something deeper than mere attraction. Their reunion blazes with first dates that feel like destiny, stolen kisses that taste of poetry, and sun-drenched picnics that blur the lines between past and present. Two old souls finding each other anew, changed by time yet bound by a connection that transcends their years apart. As summer days melt into the uncertain waters of adulthood, Chanel and Grey's love story evolves into a sweeping tale of ambition, wealth, and the intoxicating power that comes with it. What began as a whirlwind romance blossoms into a thriving partnership, as the two young lovers parlay their sharp instincts and business savvy into a rapidly expanding investment empire. But as their wealth and status grow, an uneasiness takes root deep within Chanel. She begins to sense a subtle shift in Grey, an intensity and hunger that was never there before. What once felt like destiny now carries an undercurrent of something darker, a hunger that seems insatiable. As the final pages turn, Chanel finds herself questioning everything - the man she thought she knew, the gilded life they've built together, and the very foundations of the budding empire they've constructed. For as their world teeters on the precipice of unimaginable triumph, the specter of a shocking downfall looms, leaving readers to wonder if the price of their success may be higher than either of them ever imagined.
