It's 0.99 pennies time!
Title: Love, in English
Author: Karina Halle
0.99 for a limited time only!
He’s thirty-eight. I’m twenty-three.
He speaks Spanish. I speak English.
He lives in Spain. I live in Canada.
He dresses in thousand-dollar suits. I’m covered in tattoos.
He’s married and has a five-year old daughter. I’m single
and can’t commit to anyone or anything.
Until now.Because when they say you can’t choose who you
fall in love with, boy ain’t that the f*#king truth.

To a restless dreamer like Vera Miles, it sounded like the
experience of a lifetime. Instead of spending her summer interning for her
astronomy major, she would fly to Spain where she’d spend a few weeks teaching
conversational English to businessmen and women, all while enjoying free room
and board at an isolated resort. But while Vera expected to get a tan, meet new
people and stuff herself with wine and paella, she never expected to fall in
love.
Mateo Casalles is unlike anyone Vera has ever known, let
alone anyone she’s usually attracted to. While Vera is a pierced and tatted
free spirit with a love for music and freedom, Mateo is a successful
businessman from Madrid, all sharp suits and cocky Latino charm. Yet, as the
weeks go on, the two grow increasingly close and their relationship changes
from purely platonic to something…more.
Something that makes Vera feel alive for the first time.
Something that can never, ever be.
Or so she thinks.
