Prince Oliver is brave, adventurous, and loving. He really speaks to Delilah. And then one day Oliver actually speaks to her. Turns out, Oliver is more than a one-dimensional storybook prince.

He’s sure there’s more for him out there in the real world, and Delilah might just be his key to freedom. A romantic and charming story, this companion novel to Off the Page will make every reader believe in the fantastical power of fairy tales.

"Hilf mir" - Delilah kann es kaum fassen, als sie diese Nachricht in ihrem Lieblingsbuch findet. Offensichtlich hat Oliver, der umwerfend gut aussehende Prinz der Geschichte, die Bitte speziell für sie hinterlassen. Und tatsächlich: Schnell stellen die beiden fest, dass sie über die Grenzen der Buchseiten hinweg miteinander sprechen können. Doch das reicht ihnen schon bald nicht mehr aus. Oliver ist schon lange genervt von seinem Märchen, das er immer wieder durchspielen muss, sobald ein Leser das Buch aufschlägt. Und er findet Gefallen an Delilah, die so anders ist als die langweilige Prinzessin Seraphima, die er sonst immer küssen muss. Da ist es doch klar, dass er endlich zu ihr will! Und Delilah: Die hat sich längst Hals über Kopf in ihren Märchenprinzen verliebt. Und ist begeistert von der Idee, Oliver aus dem Buch herauszuholen. Doch wie können die beiden es schaffen, die Grenzen zwischen ihren so unterschiedlichen Welten zu überwinden? Zusammen mit ihrer Tochter Samantha hat die bekannte Bestseller-Autorin Jodi Picoult einen wunderschönen Liebesroman geschrieben - mitreißend, märchenhaft, unwiderstehlich!

Cosa succede se « ...e vissero felici e contenti» non si rivela affatto essere tale? Delilah è una ragazza piuttosto solitaria che preferisce passare i pomeriggi in biblioteca, persa nei libri. In uno in particolare: Incantesimo fra le righe che in teoria è un fantasy ma che sembra terribilmente reale, al punto che il principe Oliver, oltre a essere coraggioso, avventuroso e focoso, parla a Delilah. Cioè: le parla sul serio! E salta fuori che Oliver è ben più che un personaggio di carta: è un teenager che si sente intrappolato nella sua vita letteraria e che non sopporta l’idea che il suo destino sia segnato. Oliver è certo che il mondo là fuori possa offrirgli qualcosa di interessante e vede in Delilah la sua chiave di accesso alla libertà. I due si buttano a capofitto nell’impresa di tirare fuori Oliver dal libro, un compito difficile e che i spinge ad approfondire la loro percezione del destino, del mondo e del loro posto nel mondo. Contemporaneamente cresce l’attrazione reciproca, un sentimento forte e tutt’altro che letterario...
