Tras el éxito internacional de Mujeres que compran flores, Vanessa Montfort regresa con su esperadísima nueva novela, una conmovedora historia de amistad entre dos mujeres cuyos caminos no estaban destinados a cruzarse, pero cuyo encuentro y rebeldía cambió sus vidas para siempre.

«Todos los seres humanos tenemos al menos una oportunidad de realizar un gran cambio vital, nuestra crisálida, y renacer convertidos en algo más auténtico, más fuerte y más libre.»

Patricia es una periodista a la que una grave crisis de ansiedad le obliga a replantearse su vertiginosa vida profesional, que ha afectado a la relación con su familia, amigos y pareja. En ese momento conoce en un avión a Greta, una misteriosa mujer con un pasado oculto. Gracias al apasionante relato de Greta, que tuvo que rebelarse contra una sociedad que la rechazaba, Patricia descubrirá que en este mundo inseguro lo único que puede salvarte es creer en ti misma.

Con una historia apasionante y esperanzadora que combina emoción, intriga y actualidad, El sueño de la crisálida es la crónica de la mujer de hoy en día, de los retos a los que se enfrenta como profesional, hija, madre, amante y amiga. Un retrato veraz y necesario sobre la sociedad del siglo XXI, que, debido a la prisa, el consumismo, las adicciones digitales y la autoexigencia, nos ha convertido en esclavos de lo urgente para hacernos olvidar lo importante.

Porque todos somos crisálidas con posibilidad de convertirnos en mariposas y alcanzar nuestros sueños.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

After the international success of Women Who Buy Flowers (Mujeres que compran flores), Vanessa Montfort is back with her much-anticipated new novel, a moving story of friendship between two women whose paths were not destined to cross, but whose encounter and rebellion change their lives forever.

Patricia is a journalist whose fight with anxiety has forced her to reevaluate her fast-paced professional life and affected her relationship with her family, friends, and spouse. But then, on a plane, she meets Greta, a mysterious woman with a hidden past. Thanks to Greta's thrilling tale of rebelling against a society that rejected her, Patricia discovers that in this uncertain world, the only thing that can save you is believing in yourself.

With a thrilling, inspiring story that combines emotion, intrigue, and current events, The Dream of the Chrysalis is the chronicle of women today, of the challenges women face as professionals, daughters, mothers, lovers, and friends. A true, necessary portrait of 21st-century society which, thanks to fast-paced lives, consumerism, digital addictions, and self-demandingness, has made us think only of what is urgent and not what is important.

Because we are all chrysalides with the possibility of becoming butterflies and reaching our dreams.

Sadly, DNF
Format: Kindle
I read this thru KU. I LOVED the synopsis. And then I began reading... and it was a DNF at 68% after picking it up and putting it down several times because I really loved the main female character. *****SPOILERS***** Pros: The world is unique, intriguing and fun. The primary female character is bad-a** but not a b*tech or a mary sue. The primary female has depth. I really want to know what happens to her even tho it's been weeks and I don't remember her name. The villains to the point I read are pretty good -- an ever present threat of mysterious and possibly many culprits. Cons: Way, way too many points of view. I stopped counting at 7. It's the prime reason why I don't care about most of the characters or remember their names even when I like them. There's just too many points of view so almost none of the characters have enough book space for the author to properly develop them. This literally killed the book for me. Actually it killed my desire to read. For weeks. The main male is more villain than hero. He agreed to marry the main female then locks her up & eschews her for her sister, all while bad mouthing her as unfit to rule when he never spent any time with her getting to know her. He is actually unfit to rule as he is blind to the woes of his own kingdom and starts off a peace mission to secure a ceasefire through marriage by murdering an inn full of people in her country for no real reason. Plus, he constantly makes promises he does not keep. And it's gross of him to pine for the sister behind the main female's back. ***** As much as I really wanted to see what happened to the main female character, it wasn't enough for me to keep trying to slog thru this book. There was a lot of potential here that just fell short. Hence, 3 stars.

Fae Courts with High Intrigue
Format: Kindle
This book is one that just builds and builds and then surprises you to no end. You may think you know the villains and then you are jolted in another direction. Princess Reyna is a real gem, strong of character, a fierce fighter, and loyal to her family and kingdom. Just when you think she and Lorcan, well you know, the plot is flipped. Can't wait to see where this goes in book two.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!

Interesting
Format: Kindle
This was a very captivating book once you got into it thoroughly. But the third person perspective was a bit hard to get used to. But as you got into it and followed the different characters, it was interesting and filled with intrigue, conflict and forbidden love. I can’t wait to read the next one and to complete the series.
