Adriana Diaz Enciso Jul 28, 2011:
I believe you must know first what they are referring to as "escalofríos" and "sorpresas de amor", what the concrete story (or stories) are about in order to find the right translation. The original in Spanish is in itself very awkward.
Cecilia Gowar Jul 27, 2011:
Yes, a bit more background would be most useful.
Evans (X) Jul 27, 2011:
Was about to ask the same question as Jenni. If "love" itself is not what this is about, I suggest you go for something like "lovely surprises"... which is fairly noncomittal and can cover almost anything (nice).
Jenni Lukac (X) Jul 27, 2011:
Do you know the plot of the story ad the age group the book is geared towards?

*If you think the particular text is about love in a greater sense (friends, family, animals, nature, etc.) the first - especially if someone holds out a helping hand at a critical moment in the story; if it's about the boys and girls, the second might work.
