Siamo lieti di invitarvi al matrimonio del decennio, quando Christian Grey farà di Anastasia Steele sua moglie. Ma saprà essere un buon marito? Suo padre non ne è sicuro, suo fratello vuole organizzare una festa di addio al celibato indimenticabile e la sua fidanzata certamente non giurerà di obbedirgli. Il matrimonio porta con sé le sue sfide: la loro passione reciproca arde più calda e profonda che mai, ma lo spirito ribelle di Ana continua a risvegliare le paure più oscure di Christian e mette alla prova il suo bisogno di controllo.

La rovente relazione tra Christian Grey e Anastasia Steele è finita con una rottura dolorosa piena di recriminazioni, ma lui non riesce a togliersi Ana dalla testa e dal cuore. Determinato a riconquistarla, Christian tenta di reprimere le sue pulsioni più oscure e la sua necessità di avere il controllo su tutto, e di amarla alle sue condizioni. Ma gli incubi della sua infanzia continuano a ossessionarlo, e l'intrigante capo di Ana, Jack Hyde, la vuole per sé. Riuscirà il dottor Flynn, il confidente e psicologo di Christian, ad aiutarlo a sconfiggere i suoi demoni?

Il mondo di Christian Grey è ordinato, metodico e completamente vuoto fino al giorno in cui non vi irrompe Anastasia Steele. Timida e ingenua, Ana sembra arrivargli dritto al cuore - un cuore freddo e ferito - e vedere oltre la sua immagine di imprenditore di successo. Christian riuscirà a scacciare con lei gli incubi della sua infanzia? Oppure gli oscuri desideri, l'ossessione per il controllo e l'odio verso se stesso che riempiono la sua anima distruggeranno la fragile speranza che Ana gli sta offrendo?

Es un placer invitarte a la boda de la década en la que Christian Grey tomará a Anastasia Steele por esposa. Pero, ¿está realmente hecho para el matrimonio? Su padre lo duda, su hermano quiere organizarle una inolvidable despedida de soltero y su novia no piensa prometerle obediencia.

Taking its title from The Face of Battle, John Keegan's canonical book on the nature of warfare, The Other Face of Battle illuminates the American experience of fighting in "irregular" and "intercultural" wars over the centuries. Sometimes known as "forgotten" wars, in part because they lacked triumphant clarity, they are the focus of the book. War is always hell. These wars, however, profoundly undermined any sense of purpose or proportion. Nightmarish and existentially bewildering, they nonetheless characterize how Americans have experienced combat.
