Cores Rico Design - pastel

 As cores pastel utilizadas nesta página dupla são da marca Rico Design, a qual desconhecia até bem pouco tempo  nesta sua face de pintura colorida mas mais nos fios que têm para tricot ou crochet, e que bonitas que elas são. Verdes e azul e igualmente o bege e cinza para dar tons suaves, a foto não lhe faz justiça pois parecem todas iguais. Utilizadas igualmente na página When ego is lost mas aqui foi mais os rosas, vermelho/laranja e salmão.

Até breve

When ego is lost

The Duke and I (Bridgertons #1) de Julia Quinn

Leitura agradável e algo risonha neste romance histórico sobre Daphe  e Simon em que um procura companheiro de forma ativa mas o outro não. 

Sinopse:

The Duke and I is a romance set in the Regency era.

In the ballrooms and drawing rooms of Regency London, rules abound. From their earliest days, children of aristocrats learn how to address an earl and curtsey before a prince—while other dictates of the ton are unspoken yet universally understood. A proper duke should be imperious and aloof. A young, marriageable lady should be amiable… but not too amiable.

Daphne Bridgerton has always failed at the latter. The fourth of eight siblings in her close-knit family, she has formed friendships with the most eligible young men in London. Everyone likes Daphne for her kindness and wit. But no one truly desires her. She is simply too deuced honest for that, too unwilling to play the romantic games that captivate gentlemen.

Amiability is not a characteristic shared by Simon Basset, Duke of Hastings. Recently returned to England from abroad, he intends to shun both marriage and society—just as his callous father shunned Simon throughout his painful childhood. Yet an encounter with his best friend’s sister offers another option. If Daphne agrees to a fake courtship, Simon can deter the mamas who parade their daughters before him. Daphne, meanwhile, will see her prospects and her reputation soar.

The plan works like a charm—at first. But amid the glittering, gossipy, cut-throat world of London’s elite, there is only one certainty: love ignores every rule...

Boas leituras

Cinema chamou por mim e não resisti a ver ficção cientifica. Adorei recomento e preciso desesperadamente de procurar o livrito.
