El autor más prestigioso de la literatura actual en español regresa con una novela ambientada en su Perú natal. Le dedico mi silencio narra la historia de un hombre que soñó un país unido por la música, y enloqueció queriendo escribir un libro perfecto que lo contara. «El vals, nacido en los callejones de Lima, integró al Perú. Aquí cuento esa historia, y con ella agradezco un secreto amor que me ha acompañado toda la vida: el que siento por la música criolla y, en especial, por el vals de mi país». -Mario Vargas Llosa Toño Azpilcueta, experto en música criolla, descubre a un guitarrista virtuoso, Lalo Molfino, cuyo talento parece confirmar todas sus intuiciones: el amor profundo que siente por los valses, marineras, polkas y huaynos peruanos tiene una justificación social. Tal vez lo que ocurra es que la música criolla sea, en realidad, no sólo una seña de identidad de todo un país y expresión de esa actitud tan peruana de la huachafería («la mayor contribución de Perú a la cultural universal», según Toño Azpilcueta), sino algo mucho más importante: un elemento capaz de provocar una revolución social, de derribar prejuicios y barreras raciales para unir al país entero en un abrazo fraterno y mestizo. En un país fracturado y asolado por la violencia de Sendero Luminoso (la novela transcurre a principios de la década de los noventa, en plena ofensiva terrorista), la música podría ser aquello que recuerde a todos los que conforman la sociedad que, por encima de cualquier otra cosa, son hermanos y compatriotas. Y en esto, es posible que el virtuosismo de Lalo Molfino tenga mucho que ver. Toño Azpilcueta decide investigar más sobre este guitarrista, viajar a su lugar de origen, conocer a este personaje esquivo, saber de su historia, de su familia y amores, de cómo llegó a convertirse en un músico tan excelso. Y se propone también escribir un libro donde contar la historia de la música criolla y desarrollar esa idea que ha inoculado en su mente el descubrimiento de este músico extraordinario. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The most prestigious author in Spanish literature today returns with a novel set in his native Peru. I Give You My Silence is the story of a man who dreamed of a country united by music and went mad trying to write the perfect book to tell it."The waltz, born in the alleyways of Lima, integrated Peru. Here I tell this story, and with it I thank a secret love that has been with me my entire life: the love I feel for Creole music, specially, for my country's waltz." --Mario Vargas Llosa
Toño Azpilcueta, Creole music expert, discovers a guitar virtuoso, Lalo Molfino, whose talent seems to confirm every instinct: his profound love for Peruvian waltzes, marineras, polkas, and huaynos has social grounds. Maybe what happens is that Creole music is in fact not just a symbol of an entire country's identity and the expression of a very Peruvian attitude, huachaferia ("Peru's greatest contribution to universal culture," according to Toño Azpilcueta), but something of far greater importance, an element capable of igniting a social revolution, of tearing down prejudices and social barriers to unite a country in one brotherly, mixed-race hug. In a country fractured and devastated by Sendero Luminoso's violence (the novel is set at the beginning of the nineteen-nineties, at the height of the terrorist campaign, ) music could remind society at large that they are brothers and sisters, and fellow countryfolk. And it is possible that Lalo Molfino's virtuosity has much to do with this. Toño Azpilcueta is set to investigate more about this guitar player, go to his birthplace, get to know this elusive character, learn his personal history, his family history, and his love stories, how he became such a magnificent musician. And he is also determined to write a book about Creole music and develop the idea inoculated in his mind after finding this extraordinary musician.

Fantastic writing and non-stop action
Format: Kindle
This is a promising, fantastic beginning to what will be a 4-book series. Some readers may be content to read only the first 2 books, but I think you'll find that the story is so good that you'll want to keep reading books 3 and 4.
Book 1 is about omega Elvana's introduction to the "Starling" brothers and their search for another missing person, Kelly. It's a bit of a rocky start, with deception and betrayal a key element. Hardly an auspicious beginning. Each member has their own path and purpose in the pack. Their interactions and the resulting narrative are so well-written that I found it difficult to put down.
There is a cliffhanger that will have you reaching for book 2 as you finish, so make sure you have it on hand.

Fun read
Format: Kindle
I'm not really into mafia books but I love Roxy Collin's other series so I decided to give it a try. It had the same great romance, spice, swoon-worthy characters and exciting plot that are her signature. Arben was my favorite, although it was a bit sudden how quickly he changed from ignoring her to wanting to be pack. There were almost too many twists/layers of lies to keep track of but I'm looking forward to reading the other books.
The only thing that detracted from the story for me was the need for a bit more proofreading. It was mentioned that Kelly is a female and male at different points, leading me to think she changed her mind at some point about the character's gender but didn't go back and edit it to align in all places. Like another reviewer pointed out, step siblings are different than half siblings. They are incorrectly referred to as step siblings because they (allegedly) share the same biological dad. There are a few other typos as well but those aren't a big deal.

Stepbrothers, Secrets, and Sizzling Heat
Format: Kindle
Twisted Lies by Roxy Collins is a wild ride through family secrets, amnesia, and a steamy stepbrother romance. When Kelly discovers her life is built on lies, she ends up tangled with three alpha stepbrothers and an assassin who once helped her through a heat.
The tension? Off the charts!
The heat is real, and the complications are messy in the best way. Full of twists, secrets, and fated mates? You'll be hooked from page one!
Love omegaverse drama with a dash of taboo? This one's for you!

Good read
Format: Kindle
The book has some good twists and turns, but truthfully I was so confused on some things. It didn't have a good flow for me personally. Not sure if it's due to typos or using him/her wrongly, but I thought Kelly was both a guy and a girl. Actually I still don't know, and it made me incredibly frustrated. It would refer to Kelley as him or he, and then again in another part of the story as her she and sister. On to the next book, I hope there is some clarity and a smoother flow. This is a slow burn, and I just don't know how much I care for the Alphas yet. Idk if I recommend.

the lies
Format: Kindle
This is amazing fast pace read that is full of plot twists and lies that keep getting bad. This is a story we’re a omega has been lied to by her mother and finds out that someone is slowing dieing. 3 alpha take the omega and feed her more lies so they can use her against her father so they can find their mate Kelly. This is a dark read and ends in a cliffhanger and so good.
