Gabriel, miembro de la poderosa raza de carpatianos que combaten desde tiempo inmemorial a los vampiros, llega al París moderno donde, aparte de sorprenderse por los avances humanos, se encuentra con la sorpresa mayor de una mujer de su propia especie. Francesca, una carpatiana que ha permanecido cientos de años oculta entre los humanos, hasta conseguir un milagro que ningún carpatiano podría soñar: caminar bajo la luz, sentirse casi humana, y hasta pensar en amar a uno de ellos, el seductor doctor Brice. Pero la llegada de Gabriel, elegido por el destino como su compañero eterno, lo cambia todo. Atrapada entre dos mundos, para Francesca comienza una lucha entre su vida independiente y libre como humana y la irresistible seducción que siente hacia Gabriel, al que todas las fibras de su ser anhelaban desde hacía tanto tiempo. Pero la felicidad de ambos está en peligro: Gabriel no ha sido el único en despertar... / Gabriel wakes deep within the ground, and the first sensation he feels is an overwhelming hunger for blood. But as he hunts the dark streets of Paris for prey, a voice calls to him, soothing, calming. Francesca Del Ponce is a woman who radiates goodness as powerfully as the sun does light. Garbriel knows knows he fears for her life and his soul if he takes her. Love Spell Book Club selection!.

Baseball is enormously popular in Latin America, and many of the sport’s greatest players are from south of the border. Fourteen of these superstars, from 1900 to the 1960s, are profiled here. Modeled on traditional baseball cards, the book features stats and anecdotes about 14 pioneering Latino players ranging from Dolf Luque, the Cuban pitcher who became the first Latin American star in the major leagues, to Roberto Clemente, the legendary Puerto Rican outfielder of the 1950s and 1960s. ¡Beisbol! also recalls the hardships Latino players have faced and how they have contributed to baseball history. “Will be a welcome addition to any baseball collection.” — School Library Journal .
