Ergebnis für "Winter" in Psychologie

Seit dem furchtbaren Anschlag, der das Schicksal so vieler Menschen in Oak Harbor verändert hat, läuft Rachels Leben auf Stand-by. Während andere Pläne für ihre Zukunft schmieden, kümmert Rachel sich um ihre schizophrene Mutter und verschiebt ihr eigenes Glück auf ein unbestimmtes Später. Erst der attraktive, warmherzige Coast-Guard-Offizier Mike bringt etwas in ihr zum Erwachen, das sie längst vergessen glaubte – das Verlangen, mehr zu sein als das Mädchen, das immer nur funktioniert.

Charlize hat alles zurückgelassen, von dem sie dachte, es wäre ihre Zukunft: ihren Job, ihre Wohnung, ihren Verlobten. Nur ihren Brautstrauß und die gefühlt dreiundzwanzig Schichten Tüll ihres Kleides hat sie mitgenommen nach Oak Harbor. Den Ort, der vor zehn Jahren das erste Zuhause war, das sie kannte. 431 Tage hat sie hier verbracht, bis ein schreckliches Ereignis das kleine Städtchen erschütterte. Jetzt ist sie zurück, obwohl Charlie sich geschworen hatte, nie wieder zurückzukehren. Und sie trifft gleich auf den Jungen, dessen Herz sie mitgenommen hat, als sie damals gegangen ist.

Posie Rose wollte als Stern am Hollywoodhimmel aufgehen. Ganz sicher wollte sie nicht zurück in ihre alte Heimatstadt, die vor zehn Jahren von einer schrecklichen Gewalttat erschüttert wurde.

Nachdem sie aber am selben Tag sowohl ihren Job als auch ihre Wohnung in LA verliert, bleibt ihr und ihrer Schildkröte nichts anderes übrig, als buchstäblich zurück zu kriechen an den Ort, der sie schon einmal fast umgebracht hätte.
