Luca De Luca is a ruthless billionaire with a dangerous reputation and a family legacy built on secrets. He was supposed to marry Elena for reasons that have nothing to do with love. But when Ava walks down the aisle wearing Elena’s wedding dress, Luca immediately knows the truth. She is not his intended bride. Yet instead of calling off the wedding, Luca makes Ava an impossible offer: one year of marriage. In exchange, he will erase her family’s crushing debt and protect them from the enemies closing in. Ava agrees, believing she can survive twelve months beside a man she neither trusts nor understands. But Luca has secrets of his own. Elena didn’t simply run away. She stole something powerful, uncovered a conspiracy, and left behind clues connecting both families to a series of murders that began fifteen years ago—including the suspicious death of Ava’s mother and Luca’s father. As Ava and Luca are drawn into a dangerous game of betrayal, attraction, and buried truths, they discover that their forced marriage may have been planned long before either of them knew the other existed.

Boys Like Him - undefined novels & stories
Jhasmheen oneal
She loved him until she lost herself. Now, behind locked doors and shattered glass, she must learn to breathe again. When she first met Lloyd, he was magnetic and intoxicating. The kind of man who turned every head when he entered a room, who spoke in promises sweet enough to taste. With him, she felt chosen, cherished, and safe. But safety was an illusion, and love became a weapon. And slowly, piece by piece, he dismantled her until nothing of the woman she once was remained. Now institutionalized after a breakdown, she begins to piece together the brutal truth of what really happened in the shadows of their love story. Memories sting like open wounds: the manipulation disguised as tenderness, the apologies that blurred into threats, the desperate hope that tomorrow he'd be the man she fell for again. Yet beneath the grief and the shame, a quiet rebellion stirs, a vow to reclaim her voice, her freedom, and her life. Because this is not just a story of how she fell apart. It is a story of how she rises. Haunting, raw, and achingly intimate, Boys like him peels back the glittering mask of a toxic love affair to reveal the kind of darkness that hides in plain sight, and the unbreakable strength it takes to escape it.

The Renaissance Trial - undefined novels & stories
Gina
The champagne was flat, much like the expression on Julian’s face. "It’s not that I don’t love you, Elara," he said, adjusting his $5,000 suit jacket. "It’s just that you’ve become... predictable. I need a woman who challenges the world, not someone who waits for me to come home and tell her what color the sky is." Elara felt the sting of the words more than the cold wind on the balcony. For six years, she had been Julian’s shadow. She had curated his life, managed his moods, and dimmed her own light so he could shine brighter. And now, on the night of his company’s gala, he was discarding her like an outdated software update. "Predictable?" she whispered, her voice cracking. "Go home, Elara. I’ve already had your things moved to the guest house. We can talk about a settlement in the morning." She didn't wait for the morning. She didn't wait for the "settlement." She walked out into the rain, her silk dress clinging to her skin like a second, cold layer of grief. It wasn't until three days later, sitting in a dingy motel with nothing but a suitcase and a bruised soul, that the notification popped up on her phone. ARE YOU READY TO LIVE FOR YOURSELF? ENTER THE SURVIVAL GAME. WIN YOUR FREEDOM. Elara stared at the golden icon on the screen. It felt like a trap. Or maybe, it was the only way out.
