Die atemberaubende Natur Australiens und eine zarte Liebe, die alte Wunden heilt: Auch der zweite Liebesroman der New-Adult-Reihe »Love Down Under« von Nina Bilinszki erzählt eine hochromantische Liebesgeschichte zum Mitfiebern und In-die-Ferne-Träumen. Der Naturfotograf Cooper Lee liebt sein Leben in der Wildnis Australiens und hält sich von Menschen fern. Nie mehr möchte er jemanden so nah an sich heranlassen, dass er verletzt werden kann. Doch dann ist er gezwungen, in die kleine Küstenstadt Eden zurückzukehren, wo die deutsche Studentin Sophie Naumann wie eine Naturgewalt über ihn hinwegfegt. Nicht nur schmeißt sie den Pub seines Großvaters fast im Alleingang, sie teilt auch seine Leidenschaft für die Natur und geht ihm mit ihrer Neugier und ihrem Optimismus gleich unter die Haut. Als Cooper erfährt, dass Sophies Work-&-Travel-Aufenthalt sich bereits dem Ende zuneigt, will er sie umso mehr auf Abstand halten. Doch auf einem gemeinsamen Roadtrip durch Australiens Outback ist das definitiv leichter gesagt als getan ... »No Stars too bright« erzählt herzergreifend davon, dass es sich immer lohnt, der Liebe eine Chance zu geben - und nimmt uns mit auf einen romantischen Roadtrip durch Australiens Outback. Wie Sophies Freundin Isabel in einem Koala-Reservat den Australier Liam kennenlernt, der von einer alten Schuld verfolgt wird, erfährst du in Nina Bilinszkis New-Adult-Roman »No Flames too wild«, dem 1. Teil der »Love Down Under«-Reihe.
