Celine Dashiell Everson had always enjoyed living a life away from the shadows of her family's wealth. As the youngest daughter of the country's wealthiest man, her bank account boasted millions, if not billions, courtesy of a family empire capable of acquiring not just one city, but another. However, she had long learned that embracing a life beyond the spotlight and living anonymously without the burden of her last name proved to be the best way to live a happier life. That’s why she uses her mother’s last name to keep her peace. But her supposed ordinary life turned upside down after she met Callahan Simmons, a playboy billionaire.

Duas semanas antes do casamento, Theo Salles de repente adiou a cerimônia de novo. — A Suzana disse que nesse dia vai inaugurar sua primeira exposição. — Explicou ele. — Ela vai estar sozinha na abertura, tenho medo que ela não consiga segurar a pressão. Com certeza vai precisar de alguém ao lado. — Continuou. — Nós não precisamos dessa formalidade. Casar hoje ou amanhã, qual é a diferença? Mas essa já era a terceira vez que ele adiava nosso casamento por causa da Suzana Lima. Na primeira vez, ele disse que Suzana tinha saído de uma cirurgia e sentia falta da comida da terra natal. Então, sem hesitar, ele foi para o exterior cuidar dela por dois meses. Na segunda vez, ele disse que Suzana ia se isolar nas montanhas para pintar em busca de inspiração. Ficou preocupado achando que não era seguro ela ir sozinha, por isso, foi junto. Esta é a terceira vez. Desliguei o telefone e olhei para Léo Duarte, meu amigo de infância, sentado preguiçosamente à minha frente. A bengala na sua mão, incrustada de esmeraldas, batia ritmicamente no chão de mármore. Você ainda quer uma esposa? — Perguntei. No dia do meu casamento, Suzana, sorridente e encantadora, ergueu sua taça esperando que um homem brindasse com ela. Mas esse homem, de olhos vermelhos, estava assistindo ao vivo o casamento do herdeiro do maior grupo imobiliário do país, o Grupo Duarte.

Eu fui enviada ao interior para auxiliar nas escolas rurais e trabalhar no campo durante as épocas mais pesadas de plantio. Buscando alguma emoção, acabei pondo os olhos num bruto de corpo forte. Numa noite silenciosa, subi pela janela e mergulhei no cobertor impregnado do cheiro dele, puro hormônio. — Matheus, deixa que eu te ajudo... Ele segurou minha cintura e me empurrou com força. — Foi você que procurou isso. Além de trabalhar na roça, o que eu mais fazia era montar na cintura de Matheus e rebolar sem vergonha. Enroscados na montanha, incendiados na vida rural. Nos cantos mais afastados da aldeia, sempre sobravam marcas da nossa paixão.

Carissa s'était occupée de ses beaux-parents, utilisant sa dot pour améliorer le quotidien du foyer du général. Mais en retour, son mari avait cherché à se marier avec une autre générale, car selon lui, seuls ses mérites, ses exploits militaires et ses rêves pouvaient être compris par cette autre générale. Cet homme, Amance Warren, à qui elle avait consacré presque toute sa vie ainsi qu'à sa famille, la raillait : « Carissa, c'est grâce à Aurora et moi, grâce à notre bravoure face à de féroces ennemis, que tu as un train de vie aussi extravagant. Tu le réalises, ça ? Tu ne seras jamais aussi noble et admirable qu'Aurora. Tu ne fais que jouer des tours mesquins : des insinuations perfides, des calomnies doucereuses, des médisances déguisées en éloges et des dissimulations naïves, passant toute la journée à bavarder avec une bande de commères. » Carissa Sinclair, silencieuse face aux paroles déchirantes de cet homme, a quitté la maison. Le champ de bataille … Il avait raison. Elle avait presque oublié sa vie militaire, submergée par les bagatelles domestiques, se perdant elle-même. Après tout, elle venait d'une famille militaire. Elle était aussi une générale. Le fait qu'elle préparait les repas et faisait le ménage pour son mari ne signifiait pas qu'elle avait perdu son talent pour manier une lance !

No dia do meu casamento, meus pais chegaram em casa com o meu noivo e uma decisão que partiu meu mundo ao meio: a noiva seria outra. — Sua irmã está morrendo. O último desejo dela é se casar com Otávio. — Disseram, com a voz firme de quem já decidiu. — Você é a irmã mais nova. Seja generosa. Faça esse sacrifício por ela. Otávio, o homem que eu amava, olhou nos meus olhos e disse com uma calma gelada: — É só um casamento simbólico. Quando ela partir, nós oficializamos o nosso. Eu disse não. E por isso, me prenderam. Com cordas e promessas vazias. — Depois da cerimônia, vamos te soltar. — Garantiram. Mas a cerimônia aconteceu. E, enquanto eles celebravam o que chamaram de amor, um estranho entrou pela porta da frente. E me matou. Sem piedade. Quando finalmente lembraram de mim, encontraram apenas o silêncio da casa e o meu corpo, já sem vida, tomado pelo tempo.

BLURB Niloko ng childhood sweetheart slash fiancé at ng matagal na bestfriend, iyon ang mapait na sinapit ni Persephone. Pero imbes na umiyak at magmukmok, sa mismong gabi ng engagement nila kung saan iniwan siya ng fiancé, nagdesisyon siyang gumanti sa paraang hindi inaasahan. Kumuha siya ng gigolo para gawing pansamantalang lover. At first, satisfied naman siya sa boytoy niya. Pero nang bumalik ang fiancé niyang si Narcissus, napilitan siyang hiwalayan ang lalaki at bigyan ito ng malaking halaga kapalit ng tuluyang pagkawala.

Nakasuot ito ng mamahaling suit, malamig ang titig, at puno ng authority ang presensya. Ang gigolo na binayaran niya noon. “You can't recognize me, Ma'am Persephone?” malamig na tanong nito. “W-Why are you here?” kabadong sagot ni Persephone. Ngumiti lang ang lalaki. “Of course, to claim the little seductress who ran away from me.” Ngayon lang ni Persephone napagtanto... ang akala niyang boytoy ay isang misteryosong zillionaire na may mas malaking plano para sa kanya.

The bread knife stuck in Jon doe’s chest had an unusual pattern, I grabbed a camera from the nearest person and clicked a few pictures of the design “Email them to me.” I said as I was handing the camera back to them. It looked ancient and rare, not the usual bread knifes you’d find at our local stores here in Seattle. I looked up to find a detective watching my every move, it seemed that his one side of the face looked sunken in, similarly you only see this in people who don’t have teeth, which prompted me to look into his mouth, to find that all of his teeth had been pulled out. I sighed loudly and said “well, here goes our identification route of checking dental records, this body was left in the hopes that no identification will be made!” Craning my neck to have a look at the coroner who had just arrived on scene, I recalled working with her once before on another case when I first started as a rookie, Dr Leslie Adams is an expert in her field and one of the most professional and efficient woman. She looked down at me, and stated “Detective Rush you do know that the body you are looking at has been dead for more than 3 days, and also looks as if it was stored in a body freezer before being planted at this scene” I shook my head and realised that this is getting more intense by the second, “I hadn’t realised so Doc, that’s the reason we have you here, to help me solve the mystery “- I said whilst walking up to her, I held out my hand and gave her hand a firm handshake.
