About this listen
Una comedia romántica de Regencia entre Bridgerton y Orgullo y prejuicio.
Una historia adictiva, divertidísima y con unos protagonistas inolvidables.
La cacería está a punto de comenzar... y no hay ni un minuto que perder.
Kitty Talbot necesita una fortuna. O, mejor dicho, necesita a un hombre que tenga una. Al fin y al cabo, esto es 1818 y solo los varones cuentan con el privilegio de obtener su propia riqueza.
Con apenas doce semanas para que sus hermanas y ella se queden sin hogar, Kitty tiene una única opción: la temporada social londinense, en la que deberá emplear cada gramo de ingenio que posee para conseguir un marido rico.
Sin embargo, el desconfiado lord Radcliffe está decidido a frustrar sus planes a cualquier precio. Le da igual que la cazafortunas en cuestión tenga una mente ágil, un espíritu inquebrantable y unos ojos con un brillode lo más interesante.
Por su parte, Kitty tiene claro que no puede perder ni un instante y no permitirá que nadie, ni siquiera un lord, se interponga en su camino.
La crítica ha dicho:
«Una novela inteligente, divertida y de un escapismo total con un final inmensamente satisfactorio».
The Bookseller
«Este libro me absorbió por completo. ¡Qué historia más descarada, inteligente y deliciosa! Kitty Talbot es una heroína fabulosa y valiente. Aposté por ella durante todo su divertido periplo».
Sophie Kinsella
«Vitoreé a Kitty mientras ponía en su sitio a la alta sociedad en su extravagante búsqueda de un marido rico... Un debut impresionante».
Mary Balogh
«¡Apártese, señor Darcy! Los lectores de Jane Austen, Georgette Heyer o mis propias novelas adorarán este debut brillante y divertidísimo. Totalmente irresistible».
Eloisa James
«Los fans de Bridgerton devorarán la maravillosa primera novela de Sophie Irwin... ¡Manual para damas cazafortunas es un dulce para saborear!».
Kate Quinn
«Una comedia maravillosa, tan inteligente, caprichosa y encantadora como su heroína... Un debut brillante que parece una novela de Jane Austen con el turbo puesto».
Joanna Toye
«Este libro es divertidísimo. Me reí tanto que acabé con un ataque de tos. Es un homenaje a Georgette Heyer tremendamente placentero, pero con una sensibilidad moderna propia. Es una cosa tremenda».
Harriet Tyce
«Divertida, fresca y original, con dos personajes principales exquisitos que se hacen querer... Querrás ponerla en tu carné de baile».
Cesca Major

Recién acabada la Segunda Guerra Mundial, una joven pareja se reúne por fin para pasar sus vacaciones en Escocia. Una tarde, cuando pasea sola por la pradera, Claire se acerca a un círculo de piedras antiquísimas y cae de pronto en un extraño trance. Al volver en sí se encuentra con un panorama desconcertante: el mundo moderno ha desaparecido, ahora la rodea la Escocia de 1734, con sus clanes beligerantes y supersticiosos, hombres y mujeres rudos, a veces violentos, pero con una capacidad de vivir y de amar como Claire jamás había experimentado en su anterior vida.

It’s the flight before Christmas and Molly just got an unexpected gift: a free first-class upgrade on her plane trip home for the holidays. Bring on the complimentary cocktails! But after one too many, she spills all her secrets to the hot guy seated next to her—only to wake up mortified when her buzz has worn off. At least she never has to see Liam again ... or so she thinks.

Oops.

Story
Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.
