Zuzanna Kulik
Ona się go boi, on jej nienawidzi... A jednak musi ją ochronić Royal State High School to prawdziwe piekło. Tak w każdym razie postrzega swoją nową szkołę Elena. Tym piekłem rządzi prawdziwie szatańska czwórka ― paru chłopaków, którzy bardziej przypominają bandytów niż licealistów. Ostatnie, czego chciałaby nowa uczennica, to zwrócić na siebie ich uwagę... Oczywiście, los jest przewrotny. Elena staje przypadkiem na drodze szkolnego gangu, a to oznacza tylko jedno: kłopoty. Nawet jeżeli najgroźniejszy z diabelskiej czwórki, Nathan, ma mocne powody, by za wszelką cenę chronić dziewczynę przed swoimi bezwzględnymi kumplami, ona i tak najbardziej boi się właśnie jego. Chociaż musi też sama przed sobą przyznać, że jak na diabła, chłopak jest stanowczo zbyt przystojny i ma za piękne oczy. Oczy, o których można by nawet powiedzieć, że są anielskie, gdyby nie ich stalowe, zimne spojrzenie... Czy diabeł może mieć serce? Posłuchaj audiobooka:
The First Distiller. A Comedy in Six Acts
Leo Tolstoy
