Powerful, brilliant, and ambitious, Dominic Davenport clawed his way up from nothing to become the King of Wall Street.
He has everything--a beautiful home, a beautiful wife, and more money than he could spend in a lifetime. But no matter how much he accumulates, he's never satisfied.
In his endless quest for more, he drives away the only person who saw him as enough.
It isn't until she's gone that he realizes there may be more to life than riches and glory...but by then, it may be too late.
***
Kind, intelligent, and thoughtful, Alessandra Davenport has played the role of trophy wife for years.
She stood by her husband while he built an empire, but now that they've reached the top, she realizes he's no longer the man she fell for.
When it becomes clear that she'll always come second to his work, she finally takes charge of her life and puts herself first--even if it means leaving the only man she's ever loved.
But what she didn't count on was his refusal to let her go...or for him to fight for their marriage, no matter what it takes.

A Gorgeous Excitement A Novel
Cynthia Weiner
One young woman’s summer of infinite possibility takes a turn she never saw coming in “this 1980s coming-of-age tale [that’s] chillingly compelling. Get ready to be transported.”—People (Best Books of the Month) AN OPRAH DAILY BEST NEW THRILLER • A TOWN & COUNTRY AND CRIMEREADS MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK “I haven’t felt this kind of excitement reading a story set in the ’80s since I first discovered Jay McInerney, Tama Janowitz, and Bret Easton Ellis.”—Margarita Montimore, bestselling author of Oona Out of Order There are two things Nina Jacobs is determined to do over the summer of 1986: avoid her mother’s depression-fueled rages, and lose her virginity before she starts college in the fall. Both are seemingly impossible—when her mother isn’t lying in bed for days, she’s lashing out at Nina over any perceived slight. And after a blowjob gone spectacularly wrong, Nina is the talk of Flanagan’s, the Upper East Side bar where young Manhattan society congregates. It doesn’t help that she’s Jewish, an outsider among the blue-eyed blondes who populate this rarified world. She can fit in, kind of, with enough alcohol and prescription drugs stolen from her parents’ medicine cabinet. Flanagan’s is where she pines for the handsome, preppy, and charismatic Gardner Reed. Every girl wants to sleep with him and every guy wants to be him. After she’s introduced to cocaine, Nina plunges headlong into her pursuit of Gardner, oblivious to the warning signs. When a new medication seemingly frees her mother from darkness, and Nina and Gardner grow closer, it seems like Nina might finally get what she wants. But at what cost? Freud called cocaine “a gorgeous excitement,” but a gorgeous excitement for the wrong guy can be lethal.

A Orillas del Mar
Gurnah, Abdulrazak
Una conmovedora historia sobre el exilio, el amor y la traición, del Premio Nobel de Literatura 2021. Huyendo de la mítica isla de Zanzíbar, tierra de mercaderes de perfumes y especias acunada por los monzones, Saleh Omar, un comerciante de 65 años, llega al aeropuerto de Gatwick con una caja de caoba llena de incienso y un pasaporte falso. Para comunicarse con él, los servicios sociales recurren a Latif Mahmud, un poeta experto en suajili, profesor y exiliado voluntario que vive apaciblemente en un apartamento de Londres. Cuando los dos hombres se encuentran en una pequeña ciudad junto al mar, una larga historia de amores y traiciones, seducciones y decepción, azarosos desplazamientos y litigios iniciada mucho tiempo atrás empieza a desenmarañarse. La crítica ha dicho... «El modo en que Abdulrazak Gurnah plantea la amistad como una forma de pertenencia es profundo y emocionante. [...] Estamos ante uno de esos autores que poseen un enorme instinto narrativo y apuntalan sus ideas encarnándolas en personajes y poniéndolas en acción. El modo en que en esta novela la historia del silencioso protagonista se multiplica en muchas otras historias pone de manifiesto una de las singularidades del último Nobel: su mundo literario surge del choque entre África y Europa, pero retiene cierto brillo seductor del mundo árabe y persa.» El Correo «Nos encontramos aquí con un viejo comerciante que escapa de la isla de Zanzíbar, con pasaporte falso. Así las cosas, contactará con alguien de los servicios sociales, un poeta experto en suajili, en una pequeña ciudad junto al mar, lo que destapa una historia de amores y traiciones, desplazamientos y litigios originada mucho tiempo atrás. Una novela que, tras su argumento, contiene graves observaciones sobre el racismo, el imperialismo y el desconocimiento generalizado de la realidad africana.» La Vanguardia «Rara es la ocasión en que abres un libro y descubres que encierra los fascinantes rasgos de una historia de amor. [...] Y mientras lees, apenas te atreves a respirar por miedo a romper el hechizo.» The Times «Un manifiesto poético contra la tiranía del lenguaje cuando se utiliza como una herramienta de los estados.» The Observer «Una novela absorbente, llena de atinadas observaciones sobre el racismo, el imperialismo y el desconocimiento de las realidades africanas.» The New York Times
