Taking Tiffany (The Barrow Boys of Barking Book 2) Mickey Mayhew 1º edição

London, 2006? Jack Woodfield had it sorted; brains, brawn, and sightly bulges. Working in a swank City firm, he?s a modern man with a barrow boy?s legacy best left behind. Jack?s ditched West Ham United, Barking market, and especially his belligerent brother Jamie, not to mention their family?s foolish talk of frisky phantoms; any gossip about great-uncles and their paranormal romances, 'entities from Essex', ?nasty nuns?, or ?doomed debutantes? were cobblers as far as Jack was concerned. But over Jack?s shoulder lurked his hell-raising cousin, Hayden ?the lad? Woodfield, the willing slave of the family?s sinister familiar ?Minty Hardcore?; this naughty nun?s preternatural predilection for burly ex-barrow boys seems set to screw up Jack?s prospects for promotion and a cosmopolitan, politically correct existence rather royally... And now the worst has happened. Back in Barking something has taken posh totty Tiffany Grieve, Jamie?s girlfriend, and taken her in the worst possible way, flinging her headlong into Jacks? arms. Jamie has fled, betrayed by brother and girlfriend both. And Jack himself seems doomed to spend the rest of his days bogged down in cheap bling and flexing his biceps on demand, for the delectation of the local girl gangs. Even their Aunt Amanda, former tarot reader to Ronnie Kray, has been removed from the board, her Bethnal Green home boarded up and empty. So too have Jack?s friends from the LSE fled, knowing perhaps more about matters than they ought. And above Barking town centre itself a strange, testosterone thundercloud threatens to break?
