Электронная книга: Michelle Richmond «Abielupakt»
Kui kaugele oleksid sina nõus minema, et kaitsta oma abielu? Pingelise tempoga psühholoogilise põnevusromaani peategelasteks on värskelt abiellunud Alice ja Jake. Alice oli kunagi laulja kuulsas rokkansamblis, ent nüüdseks on saanud temast edukas advokaat. Jake’il on osalus ühes hoogsalt arenevas psühholoogilise nõustamisega tegelevas firmas. Nende kooselu peidab endas lõputult võimalusi. Kui nad saavad ühelt Alice’i mainekalt kliendilt ahvatleva pulmakingi, otsustavad ka nemad liituda eksklusiivse ja salapärase grupiga, mida kutsutakse lihtsalt Paktiks. Pakti eesmärk näib olevat lihtne: hoida abieludõnneliku ja püsivatena. Ja enamik Pakti reeglitest on igati loogilised: vasta alati telefonile, kui su abikaasa helistab. Tehke teineteisele iga kuu läbimõeldud kingitusi. Planeerige kord kvartalis ühine reis… Ja siis veel see: ärge mainige Pakti kunagi ühelegi võõrale. Alguses on Aliceja Jake võlutud glamuursetest pidudest ja vastsest kogukonnatundest. Kuid siis rikub üks neist reegleid. Noored armunud saavad teada, et Pakti ridadesse kuulumine on liikmete jaoks samamoodi eluaegne nagu nende abielugi. Ja Pakt on valmis kõigeks, et see reegel saaks täidetud. Peagi tõotab Jake’i ja Alice’i unistuste abielu kujuneda kõige jubedamaks luupainajaks. Издательство: "Eesti digiraamatute keskus OU"
