Winner of the 2018 YALSA Excellence in Nonfiction Award I hope you enjoy walking alongside Vincent and Theo on their journey of love, loss, and towering achievement. Drawing mostly on the 658 letters from Vincent to Theo, and the 40 we have of Theo’s to Vincent, this book tells the story of two dramatic lives intertwined. Theo was Vincent’s champion, Vincent Theo’s inspiration.įor the past five years I immersed myself in the lives of Vincent and Theo van Gogh.

The brothers’ friendship was stormy, passionate enduring, essential, a work of art in itself. Theo, his younger brother: steady, constant, dependable, yet lonely. Vincent: passionate, determined, yet desperately lost on his life’s journey. The world would not have Vincent van Gogh’s art without his brother Theo. IndieBound Amazon Barnes & Noble Powell’s Sawyer and Lana may have different motives, but their scintillating hookups are the same kind of steamy.Godwin Books/Henry Holt & Co., April 2017 What starts as a carefree fling becomes a lusty game of seduction. Sawyer doesn't know if Lana can heal his broken heart, but spending time with her might at least make Ashton jealous. Ashton's cousin has always been sweet and soft-spoken, but now she's drop-dead gorgeous as well. He's lost his best girl to his best friend. If only he'd get over Ashton-because Lana is sick of second-best. Lana has a chance to make Sawyer see her, and she's taking it. And she's always had Sawyer Vincent-the only boy Lana's ever wanted-wrapped around her finger. Ashton always made perfect grades, had tons of friends, and looks model-perfect. Lana has lived her life in her cousin's shadow. Especially when he's been in love with your cousin for as long as you can remember. Getting a boy to fall head-over-heels in love with you isn't easy. Hot romance is the cure for heartbreak in this sequel to The Vincent Boys.
