Amy March

Titre : Pas de deux avec le diable Elle s'appelle Graziella Valcourt. Fille d’une couturière et d’un ouvrier, elle n’a que son corps et sa rage pour conquérir la scène. Depuis l’enfance, elle rêve d’être l’étoile, cette ballerine adulée, lumière unique dans l’ombre des autres. Mais à l’Opéra, le talent ne suffit pas. Il faut des appuis. Des noms. Du pouvoir. Quand Élias De Marens, mécène influent, richissime et redouté, lui propose de financer sa carrière en échange d’un contrat... particulier, Graziella hésite. Un marché immoral, inavouable, mais irrésistible. Car il lui promet la scène, la reconnaissance, l’immortalité artistique. À condition de lui appartenir, corps et âme. Graziella accepte. Mais plus elle grimpe, plus elle s’enlise dans un monde de faux-semblants, de jalousies et de pièges. Entre les applaudissements et les nuits volées, entre les projecteurs et les chaînes invisibles, elle vacille. Jusqu’à ce que l’art devienne poison. Et que l’amour, le vrai, vienne tout bouleverser. Jusqu’où ira-t-elle pour danser au sommet ? Et à quel prix ?

Durante mucho tiempo, Inés del Valle creyó que Emiliano Cornejo era su única luz en este mundo. Hasta que, mirándola directamente a los ojos, él le dijo con cruel indiferencia: —Mi compromiso con Mariana Altamirano no se cancelará. Si quieres, puedes seguir siendo mi amante. En ese instante, Inés despertó. Esa luz que tanto amaba, hacía mucho se había convertido en la sombra que la asfixiaba. Esa misma noche, se marchó de la casa sin volver la vista atrás. Todos pensaron que una huérfana como ella, sin el respaldo de los Cornejo, no tardaría en arrastrarse de vuelta, rogando por perdón. Pero entonces ocurrió lo inesperado. En plena ceremonia de compromiso entre los Cornejo y los Altamirano, Inés apareció vestida de rojo, del brazo del patriarca de los Altamirano, Sebastián Altamirano. Ya no era la mujer abandonada: ahora era la cuñada del novio. El salón entero quedó en shock. Emiliano, furioso, pensó que todo era una provocación. Dio un paso hacia ella… Y entonces una voz helada, firme como el acero, se dejó oír por encima de todos: —Atrévete a dar un paso más… y verás lo que pasa.

« Mademoiselle Elara, ceci confirme l'accord concernant votre mort mise en scène. Dans deux semaines, lors de la cérémonie de couronnement de Luna, votre décès sera simulé. Vous tomberez dans les rapides, et la cause officielle sera un empoisonnement à l'aconit. » Lorsque mon compagnon Alpha, Aiden, m'a abandonnée une fois de plus pour des affaires urgentes de la meute, j'ai trouvé un renégat sur le marché noir et j'ai signé l'accord de mort simulée sans la moindre hésitation. Le monde entier des loups-garous croyait qu'Alpha Aiden était follement amoureux de moi. Il jouait parfaitement son rôle, n'oubliant jamais d'embrasser mon front chaque fois qu'il partait. Mais moi seule savais que, la trente-neuvième fois où il m'avait embrassée, il avait aussi passé la nuit, ivre et perdu dans une brume alcoolisée, avec ce mannequin oméga, Cassia. Mais tout cela n'avait plus aucune importance désormais. Alpha souillé, j'en avais fini avec lui. Lors du couronnement qu'il chérissait plus que tout, je m'assurerais qu'il reçoive le cadavre le plus parfait qui soit.

Tuvimos una relación de diez años. Salvador Ríos, finalmente, aceptó casarse conmigo. Pero el día en que debíamos tomarnos las fotos para la boda, cuando el fotógrafo nos pidió que nos besáramos, Salvador frunció el ceño con desagrado, murmuró que sufría de misofobia y, sin más, me empujó suavemente a un lado y se marchó solo. Yo, con la cara ardiendo de vergüenza, me vi obligada a disculparme con todo el equipo por su actitud. Afuera caía una nevada densa. Era imposible encontrar un taxi. Caminé sola, paso a paso sobre la nieve, con los pies empapados… y el corazón también. Y al llegar al departamento que sería nuestro hogar conyugal, lo encontré besando a Lucía Solís. Abrazándola como si el mundo estuviera a punto de acabarse. —Lucía… solo dime una palabra… y dejo esta boda y todo ahora mismo —susurró él. Diez años de amor ciego… de pronto se convirtieron en una broma cruel. Lloré como nunca. Y luego decidí que sería yo quien escapara primero de esa boda. Tiempo después, se corrió la voz en todo nuestro círculo social: El joven Ríos buscaba desesperadamente a su ex prometida por todo el mundo, solo para rogarle que lo mirara una vez más.

Après dix ans d'amour, mon fiancé Lucien Dubois a enfin accepté de m'épouser. Mais quand on prenait des photos de mariage, le photographe a demandé quelques clichés de baisers, il a froncé les sourcils, a parlé de sa prétendue obsession de propreté, m'a repoussée et est parti seul. J'ai présenté des excuses, gênée, aux membres de l'équipe. Par ce jour de forte neige, il était impossible de trouver un taxi. J'ai marché avec peine dans l'épaisse couche de neige, avançant pas à pas jusqu'à la maison. Mais par la fenêtre, j'ai surpris Lucien serrant son premier amour dans ses bras et l'embrassant avec une ardeur interminable. « Isabelle, il me suffirait d'un mot de toi pour que je fuie ce mariage ! » Mes années de fidélité et d'attente se sont effondrées, tournées en dérision. Après avoir pleuré toutes mes larmes, j'ai choisi de fuir avant lui. Plus tard, dans tout notre cercle, la rumeur a couru. On disait que le jeune maître de la famille des Dubois avait parcouru le monde à la recherche de son ancienne fiancée, implorant son retour.

“F**k me to death if you must, you asshole,” I sobbed. I felt defeated as I lay beneath the Alpha King’s hardened body. He was pressed heavily against me.

This book is authored by amy worcester. “I started boxing lessons with the boys when I was twelve, I had some issues to work through. I’ve been in the fight for the last eleven years.” Twenty-three, he thought. That was too young for his thirty-nine years. But he sure as hell planned to enjoy the view. She currently hid her body under baggy clothes, but he was willing to bet that she was all muscles underneath. He had dated the soft curvy women before, he liked the ones that he was certain that he would not break. “How old were you when you moved in with Brute?” “Seven. Right after my parents were killed.” She said softly and he froze just before the stairs. Sixteen years ago. Right around the time he reenlisted with the Army. When the club went straight. When the Ridgeview president, Sinner, his wife and sons had been shot to death. And his daughter barely survived. The only survivor from that day. “I'm sorry.” He murmured and she shrugged. “I’m trying to remember you.” He was so much like the men that she grew up around. The kind of man that she swore she would avoid. The same type that her father had been,there were even tattoos on the backs of his hands. Jasmine was born and raised in the Devil’s Saints Motorcycle Club. A rival club caused the deaths of her family. After an incident at the mother house, she stepped away to focus on her MMA career under the name Taz.

Seventeen years ago, the Hartwell family's little girl vanished into thin air, leaving her big brothers, Alexander and Julian, heartbroken and their parents wrecked until the end. Fast-forward to now: the billionaire brothers launch a worldwide hunt for their long-lost sister—the true heir to their massive empire. The big giveaway? A unique crescent-moon-and-star birthmark on her back. Plot twist: she's been right under their noses the whole time—as Elena, the overworked, underpaid maid getting bossed around by greedy widow Victoria and her bratty daughter Sophia. When the birthmark news hits, Victoria spots the real deal on Elena's back and smells money. Boom—they slap a fake tattoo on Sophia, coach her on sob stories, and march her straight to the Hartwells. The brothers, desperate for family, buy it hook, line, and sinker. Sophia morphs into "Isabella Hartwell," moves into the mansion, snags the CEO title, and starts living like royalty. Meanwhile, the actual heiress keeps scrubbing toilets. But power turns Sophia into a total monster—snobby, mean, and extra cruel to Elena. She even frames her for stealing a billion-dollar necklace and gets her kicked out. One brother (the sharp one) starts smelling something fishy. Then, at the huge CEO crowning gala, Sophia forgets to redraw the fake birthmark. Cameras flash, the mark's missing, and the internet explodes. Fake heiress busted! The brothers show up at Elena's tiny apartment begging forgiveness. She quietly shuts the door in their faces. Weeks later? Elena reclaims her empire—not as a sweet lost princess, but as a fierce boss lady who rebuilds it better, smarter, and kinder. She doesn't just inherit power—she owns it. And the brothers? They get front-row seats to the glow-up they never saw coming.

As I turn to march out of the room, my feet stop and my breath hitches. "Bryanna. Why…” I whip back around and glare at them. "You aren't to use that name in public. Only when we are in private and alone.” Jacob flashes me a crooked smile. His eyes sparkle as he waves his finger around in the air. “We are alone. It is only us three in here.” He rests his arm on the table and gives me a cheesy grin, almost daring me to slap it off him. His t-shirt stretches tight against his muscular chest and accents his well-defined muscles. He has a true alpha body. The sparkle in his light brown eyes shimmers as he leans forward. In a deep, husky voice, he adds, “We know all your secrets. Plus, we can see your true self. The one nobody else can see because of the magic spell. Should I go on?” My heartbeat echoes in my ears as I stumble forward. How could he act like this? Bryanna, the heir to her pack, is forced into a contract relationship right before her eighteenth birthday which her father claims to be the best for both her and the pack. However, as she gets older, she soon realizes the contract relationship may not be the best choice for her, but it was a great choice for her father. When Bryanna and the contract are on the verge of falling apart, she faces a choice only she can make. Does she fight for the mate she can't detect at the risk of her secret coming out? Or does she sacrifice her happiness for the pack and her father's wishes while also keeping her secret buried?
