Hael: I let her go once, and it nearly killed me. Now Ariana is back, with secrets in her eyes and internal walls so high I'll need an army to break them down. But I'm well known for breaching walls and claiming hearts. I don't think she realises just how far I'm willing to go or who I am now, but she will, even if I have to burn the town down to claim her. Ariana: He was the boy next door and my unlikely hero when life threw me curveballs. I think I've always loved Hael in one form or another, but when the opportunity arose to escape this town, I reached for it with both hands, leaving him behind like a dirty little secret. I should have known Hael was too much of a man to forget; even thousands of miles away, he haunted me. Now I'm back in Mercy, and I can't keep my secrets quiet anymore.

The Lies He Kissed Me With - Romance novels & stories
Asmeey
Iris never imagined that love could feel so intoxicating… or so dangerous. From the moment she met Adrian, his charming smile and irresistible presence drew her in, making her forget caution and reason. On the surface, he seemed perfect — attentive, flirtatious, and seemingly devoted. But behind that captivating exterior lurked secrets she could never have predicted. What began as stolen glances and playful conversations soon escalated into something far more intense — a forbidden affair neither of them could resist. Every kiss came with a hidden truth, every touch with a lie waiting to be uncovered. As Iris is pulled deeper into Adrian’s world, she discovers that his intentions are far from pure, and that their passionate connection masks a darker, more controlling side. When the truth of his deceptions surfaces, Iris is forced to confront a harsh reality: love can be manipulative, suffocating, and even dangerous. Their entanglement spirals into a toxic dance of desire and betrayal, challenging everything she believed about loyalty, trust, and the boundaries of the heart. Caught between temptation and self-preservation, Iris must decide whether surrendering to Adrian’s magnetic pull is worth the heartbreak it could bring — or if walking away from the man who has consumed her thoughts, her body, and her emotions is the only way to survive. The Lies He Kissed Me With is a gripping, 18+ dark romance about toxic love, hidden agendas, and the fine line between passion and destruction. It is a story of obsession, betrayal, and the dangerous allure of a love built on lies — a story readers will not be able to put down until the very last chapter.

The Vale family reveals Adrian vanished after uncovering a conspiracy buried within their empire. If his disappearance becomes public before the wedding, the inheritance controlling the company will fall into the hands of those Adrian was trying to expose.

Now Adrian is back with proof that someone inside the Vale empire orchestrated his disappearance and is hunting Lucy for something she unknowingly possesses. Lucy isn’t choosing between two brothers.

My fiance's uncle's property  - Romance novels & stories
Dela
“Lucian, you know we should not be doing this”, I moan into his ear. Soft, as he thrusts into me. “Are you sure?” He teases. “I let you stay here for a reason. You know you want me”. He grunts, pumping into me. Faster. “Aah” I cry out. “Lucian!” *** Eveline Hart walked into a stranger's bed to survive her own engagement party. She never asked his name. She never expected to need it — not until her dying father's only hope of survival turns out to be the same man, and his surname is the one she was about to marry into. Forced to live with him with no other options. Now she calls Lucian Vale "Uncle" at family dinners and knows exactly how he sounds when the door is locked. THIS STORY DOESN'T FOLLOW THE RULES. IT GETS STEAMIER, CRAZIER, AND MESSIER WITH EACH CHAPTER (especially from chapter 26😜). YOU REALLY ARE IN FOR A RIDE, TRUST THE PROCESS. AND DON'T READ IF YOU CANNOT HANDLE TABBOOS, AS THE FL WILL DO A LOT OF QUESTIONABLE THINGS. LIKE I SAID, THIS STORY DOES NOT FOLLOW RULES!!!
