Romans Dark Romance Romance & Histoires Hidden Identity Regret

As a former adult film actress, I built a career around a world I eventually wanted to leave behind. After I walked away, I married a rich, gentle man who knew every dirty video of me and still chose me. New city. New face. New name. A quiet mansion and clean life. It should have been enough. But It wasn’t. My husband finishes too fast. Five minutes and he’s done, soft, already asleep while I’m still aching and wanting more. I cry. I beg for more but he tells me to manage. So I tried to pleasure myself alone but still feels empty afterward. One evening the doorbell rings. I’m alone. I open the door in nothing but a towel. The delivery guy is young, handsome, thick in all the right places. I drop the towel, drop to my knees. I was so close… That’s when the door opens. And that’s only the start. Another one happened the morning of my wedding. After my wedding people who I've worked with on set began reaching out to me for a scene or a night stand. People who shouldn’t touch me. Rooms that should have stayed private. Secrets that refuse to stay buried. I thought I could control the hunger but I was wrong.

I kept his secret for six years. Every time someone asked where my husband was, I said Germany. I said residency. I said he was building something for us. I believed it because Zoe was sick and I could not afford to fall apart. I found out at a restaurant. He walked in with her, his hand on her back, her ring on his finger. He looked at me the way you look at someone you have already decided does not matter. He said Zoe’s illness was God’s way of keeping me occupied while he moved on. I signed the papers. I left. I did not let him see me break. Fourteen months later my daughter was accepted into the Harlow Foundation’s post-cancer program and I walked into that building for her. Not for me. The way I have done everything for six years. I did not plan for Ethan. I did not plan for the way he speaks to my daughter before he ever speaks to me, or the way he looks at me like I am something worth being patient for. I did not plan to find out his sister is the woman my husband left me for. He says he is not going anywhere. I have heard that before. But Ethan Harlow is not Daniel. And I am not the woman who waited in silence anymore. I am just learning what comes next.

Olivia and Carl establish a pattern of behavior at the dinner table, and one more powerful in bed since the same night they met. Meeting at the usual restaurant every Friday night, they don't know each other's lives, what they do for a living, they don't know last names, or if they have someone waiting for them at home. They don't send text messages or calls either, just throw a new proposal on the mattress to be lovers once again and again. Everything is perfect between them, what could go wrong?

I was hired to pretend I was obsessed with him. I should have known there was something wrong with a billionaire who wanted a woman to fake an obsession instead of pretending to love him.

What he doesn't know is that I didn't accept his offer for the money. I accepted because I have unfinished business with the Hollis. They destroyed my family. Now I'm going to destroy theirs. Simple. Except Rafe Hollis isn't the cold, arrogant billionaire I expected. He's Impossible to read. Every time I try to manipulate him, I discover he's already three steps ahead of me. Then he starts touching me like he knows exactly what it does to my body. Looking at me like he's been waiting years for me to walk into his life. And kissing me like this was never intentional. It was a plan. The deeper I dig, the more I realize nothing about Rafe is accidental. Then I find a photograph of myself in his bedroom. Suddenly, the man I came to destroy may be the only person who knows the truth about my past. And the closer I get to him, the harder it becomes to remember which one of us was supposed to be pretending. Because I came into his world planning to ruin him. He let me in knowing exactly who I was. And somewhere between the lies, the jealousy, the secrets, and the kisses... I have to ask myself the one question that terrifies me most, What if I wasn't the one who became obsessed first? And what if the man I'm supposed to destroy has been obsessed with me all along?

"Know your place." "I only married you out of pity, don't try to cross your boundary." "Let me take the credit for this, madam. You're the wife of the heir; you don't need these small scraps." The hurtful words, neglect, and humiliation were everything Ava McQueen was used to, but who told her to be in love with this man? 25-year-old Ava McQueen only wanted one thing: To get back her husband's love and be worthy to stand by his side, but what she got instead was his cold back and the ridicule from his family. Ethan McQueen, the charismatic heir of the McQueen Empire, had only married her to look good in front of his grandfather, the aging patriarch of the McQueens, Kenneth, but his heart was solely for his childhood friend and first love, Victoria Blackwood... or so he thought. Abandoned and trapped in a loveless marriage as a replacement for a woman she'd never measure up to, mistreated by her husband and his family, belittled at work, she presses on, steadfast in her love... until she lost the one thing she'd gained from her love... her baby. Ava seeks a divorce and, determined to forget Ethan completely, she leaves, and suddenly, Ethan sees she's not who he thought she was. Because the woman who was trampled and thought to be a helpless orphan golddigger was actually a billionaire heiress! Determined to topple his empire, as hidden truths and dangers surface, Ethan realizes he might have lost a gem while hoarding stones, and she might be the key to his sanity. But will Ava help him find the solace he craves? Or will she tear everything down and let him be swallowed by the darkness he once trapped her in?

“Seraphine Anderson, do you take Arthur Ashford to be your lawful husband?” “Yes, I do.” Seraphine recited her wedding vows with tears of joy, gazing at the man who had been her whole world for the past two years. However, when the same question was posed to the groom, Arthur abruptly pulled his hand away and snatched the microphone. “I do not.” * * “You can’t deny it anymore. I have DNA test results proving those three children are mine.” Sera just laughed dismissively. “That evidence means nothing. They’re my children. You’re just a sperm donor who happened to cross my path. Go away... you’re not that important.” * * “I love you, Seraphine. But my family’s vendetta is far greater than my love for you,” said Arthur Ashford as he called off the wedding at the altar. “You cast me aside in front of the whole world for the sake of your vendetta, Arthur. Today, now that you know I gave birth to triplets for you, don’t expect me to let them call you ‘Dad,’” said Seraphine Anderson, four years later.

“I’ll ask again,” He says with an husky finish on his voice, leaving his sitting position over to mine and squatting in front of me “Have you ever consider me as your type of guy?” I have the answer to that question already in my heart and he looking closely into my eyes freezes them from coming out. He’s close, again, too close. Before I know what is happening, he steals my last words, like knowing exactly what I want to say next and preventing me from saying them. I shiver from the touch of his lips on mine and exactly as I imagined, his lips are soft and juicy. Gently, he stroke my bottom lip with his tongue, massaging them slowly and as if carefully. ******** With everything going on in Eno's life, romance was the last thing she had expect to happen.
