En savoir plus sur le livre

A new love story from Anna Todd begins with the first novel in a new trilogy from the #1 internationally best-selling author of the AFTER series. Twenty-year-old Karina is striving for independence in Ft. Benning, Georgia. As a devoted officer's daughter, supportive sister to a troubled twin brother, and caring friend to her roommate Elodie, she prioritizes others' needs over her own, taking pride in her ability to fix broken things—be it her new house or her fragmented family. Growing up near an army base, Karina is familiar with the haunting echoes that follow soldiers home from war. When she meets Kael, a handsome soldier nearing discharge, she is drawn to his brooding presence and enigmatic silence. As their friendship deepens into something more, Karina seeks to understand Kael's emotional barriers, shaped by his experiences and trauma from two tours in Afghanistan. As a physical therapist, she feels compelled to help him heal, despite her own insecurities. However, their trust is fragile, akin to the preciousness of a soldier's life, and their relationship faces a critical test when confronted with challenges Karina struggles to accept. Anna Todd's Brightest Stars trilogy continues with upcoming titles.
