"...eine Geschichte von ewiger Liebe und unsagbarem Verlust, von Hoffnung und Trauer, vom Flicken dessen, was zerbrochen ist ... und vom Lernen, wieder zu fliegen." - 5-Sterne-Rezension von Once Click Chicks Phoebe Wilson hat ein schweres Leben hinter sich. Von klein auf auf sich allein gestellt und mit einem Klumpfuß behaftet, antwortet sie auf eine Anzeige, um für den schottischen Siedler Calum MacDonnell zu arbeiten, in der Hoffnung, sich durch ihre Arbeit zu beweisen. Was sie nicht erwartet, ist ein grimmiger Mann aus den Bergen, einsam und wild, mit einer weichen Seite. Noch überraschender ist, dass er es auf sich nimmt, sie vor ihrer Vergangenheit zu schützen und sich um sie zu kümmern. Calum besteht darauf, sie wie ein kleines Kind zu behandeln, sie zu füttern, zu baden und zu verhätscheln wie ein kleines Mädchen, und sie zu bestrafen, wenn sie sich in Gefahr begibt. Doch als der Winter kommt, rückt die Bedrohung aus Phoebes Vergangenheit näher und Calums eigene Dämonen kommen zum Vorschein. Kann ihre Liebe füreinander am Ende siegen? Ist Phoebe stark genug, um Calum zu erlauben, sich um sie als seine Kleine zu kümmern?

The incredible bestselling book from the author of No Barriers and The Adversity Advantage Erik Weihenmayer was born with retinoscheses, a degenerative eye disorder that would leave him blind by the age of thirteen. But Erik was determined to rise above this devastating disability and lead a fulfilling and exciting life. In this poignant and inspiring memoir, he shares his struggle to push past the limits imposed on him by his visual impairment-and by a seeing world. He speaks movingly of the role his family played in his battle to break through the barriers of blindness: the mother who prayed for the miracle that would restore her son's sight and the father who encouraged him to strive for that distant mountaintop. And he tells the story of his dream to climb the world's Seven Summits, and how he is turning that dream into astonishing reality (something fewer than a hundred mountaineers have done). From the snow-capped summit of McKinley to the towering peaks of Aconcagua and Kilimanjaro to the ultimate challenge, Mount Everest, this is a story about daring to dream in the face of impossible odds. It is about finding the courage to reach for that ultimate summit, and transforming your life into something truly miraculous. "An inspiration to other blind people and plenty of us folks who can see just fine."—Jon Krakauer, New York Times bestselling author of Into Thin Air
