Beauty And The Beasts Chapter 1

Julian "Jules" Ashford was born to wear a suit, walk the shiny halls of power, and marry the perfect woman - even when he's lied his entire life to everyone, including himself. Closeted, bullied by father Stephen Ashford Sr., and stuck in a copycat marriage to political heiress Camille "Cam" Stratton, Jules has just one freedom: acting... until an ice-blue mess and a beat-up Dodge Challenger smash into his carefully built world. River Moreno is signed, shattered, and too occupied destroying Moreno Custom Garage with his sister Sierra and father Tomás to give a shit about billionaire dickheads in fancy suits - until one of them "accidentally" hits him from behind to get his attention. When Jules and River's worlds collide - quite literally - what begins as a calculated untruth sets something raw and magnetic in motion. One man's existence is constructed on silence and legacy; the other's on survival and truth. But when a brick comes through River's shop window and threats begin to escalate, Jules doesn't hesitate to defend him - even if it means putting himself at risk and exposing himself in ways he's never been brave enough to. As Jules utilizes his power to protect River from harm, something deeper takes root - deeper than lust, deeper than rebellion. It's real. It's risky. And it may cost them everything. In a city where Ashford & Co. Wealth and the Stratton political machine reign supreme, where love between two men puts more than reputation at risk - it puts power at risk - Jules must make a decision: Can the man who was trained to live behind a mask come to love - and live - in the open?

Quand Ava accepte un mariage arrangé avec Vincenzo De Luca, héritier d'une redoutable famille italienne, elle pense signer pour une cage dorée. Mais dès son arrivée au manoir, elle comprend que Vincenzo n'est pas l'homme distant qu'elle imaginait. Il est énigmatique, magnétique... et irrémédiablement attiré par elle. Entre jeux de pouvoir, attirance irrésistible et tensions à peine contenues, chacun tente de garder le contrôle. Mais dans cette guerre silencieuse où le désir se dispute au danger, Ava et Vincenzo pourraient bien perdre bien plus que leur liberté : leur cœur. Dans ce huis clos brûlant, les regards pèsent plus que les mots, les silences parlent plus fort que les promesses, et chaque geste devient un aveu. Jusqu'où ira ce jeu de séduction ?
