    10. september 1981

    Sally Thorne je autorkou bestsellerov, ktorej debutový román o kancelárskej romantickej komédii oživil tento žáner. Jej diela sa vyznačujú vtipnými dialógmi a pútavým romantickým dejom, často skúmajúcim dynamiku vzťahov v nečakaných prostrediach. Thorneová majstrovsky buduje napätie a chémia medzi jej postavami je hmatateľná, čo čitateľom ponúka pohlcujúci a uspokojivý čitateľský zážitok. Jej schopnosť zachytiť podstatu modernej romantiky ju etablovala ako významnú autorku v súčasnej literatúre.

      Ktorému z nich prasknú nervy ako prvému? Lucy Huttonová a Joshua Templeman sa navzájom nenávidia. Nedá sa povedať, že sa iba nemajú radi. Ani že sa neochotne tolerujú. Nie, oni sa fakt neznášajú. Obaja pracujú ako asistenti riaditeľov vydavateľstva, dennodenne sedia oproti sebe v kancelárii a svoju nenávisť si ventilujú prostredníctvom rituálnych pasívno agresívnych hier. Lucy nechápe Joshuov odmeraný, upätý a úzkostlivý prístup k práci. Joshua zasa krúti hlavou nad Lucinými farebnými vintage šatami, svojráznym vystupovaním a prehnaným optimizmom. Vo firme sa črtá možnosť povýšenia a neutíchajúci boj dvoch najvážnejších uchádzačov o miesto prevádzkového riaditeľa vrcholí. No hoci sa napätie povážlivo stupňuje, Lucy zisťuje, že možno to, čo cíti k Joshuovi, nie je nenávisť. A možno uňho je to takisto. A možno iba rozohrali ďalšiu, oveľa nebezpečnejšiu hru!

      Interpretive Description
    • Now a motion picture starring Lucy Hale and Austin Stowell, USA Today bestselling author Sally Thorne's hilarious and sexy workplace comedy all about that thin, fine line between hate and love. Lucy Hutton has always believed that the nice girl can get the corner office. She's charming and accommodating and prides herself on being loved by everyone. Everyone except sarcastic, cynical, and intimidating Joshua Templeman. Her nemesis. Josh is the dark and brooding to Lucy's light and cheery, the crisp pressed suit to her retro outfits and bright red lipstick. And he gets under her skin like no one else can. Trapped in a shared office together five days a week, they've become entrenched in an addictive, never-ending game of one-upmanship. When a new executive position is announced, Josh and Lucy are top contenders for the promotion, but the idea of working for the other is so unthinkable that they strike a deal: whoever doesn't get the job will walk away. The stakes have never been higher and as the competition heats up and the barriers between them begin to fall down, Lucy starts questioning just who her opponent truly is and whether this man she's hated all this time is even the real Josh. Maybe Lucy Hutton doesn't hate Joshua Templeman. And maybe, he doesn't hate her either.

      Readers and critics have celebrated USA Today bestselling author Sally Thorne’s debut novel, which sold in over 20 countries. Now, she returns with a delightful romantic comedy featuring a twin sister and brother vying for an inheritance, complicated by a sexy best friend. Darcy Barrett has conducted a global survey of men and concludes that none compare to Tom Valeska, her brother Jamie's best friend. Unfortunately, Tom is mostly loyal to Jamie, leaving Darcy to settle for less since she found her dream man at eight and peaked in her photography career at twenty. When Darcy and Jamie inherit a dilapidated cottage from their grandmother, they must restore it and sell it. Darcy plans to escape as renovations begin, but her plans change when Tom, now single and a house-flipper, shows up at her door with tools in hand. Faced with her brother's questionable design choices, Darcy finds herself drawn to Tom's charm and looks, reigniting her passion for photography. As sparks fly, she realizes that the one percent of Tom’s heart that was once reserved for Jamie may not be enough anymore. This time, Darcy is determined to claim Tom Valeska for herself.

    • We’ve reduced the level of the language to remove difficult words or phrases when possible. All the titles have been reviewed for reading age by a language expert. More of the difficult words that students will need to know for the exam are explained in the key terms boxes, and the definitions are repeated through the books in case students forget. We’ve simplified explanations and removed details that students targeting a grade 5 or below don’t need to know. Where possible, we’ve replaced paragraphs of text with easy-to-understand flow diagrams, mind maps or charts. This and the other changes, mean there is significantly less text on the pages for students to tackle. Exam tips have been re-focused to offer advice in how to weaker students can secure as many marks as possible, rather than how to produce top level answers. The Preparing for your exam chapters have been thoroughly rewritten with answers and commentary suitable for students working towards a grade 5, with no intimidating grade 9 level answers for your weaker students to weep over. The level of the activities have been reduced and some of the harder ones cut.
