Bitter And Sweet

Raised in her father's gang, the young gypsy Emma Ferguson was persecuted all her life by the puritanical society of the 19th century, yet she never felt completely part of the Romani group. Vivacious and intelligent, the beautiful Emma only wished to find her true self and live the experiences she had been denied over the 20 years of her life, when an unsuccessful performance made her worst nightmares come true in that cursed Scottish town. Emma only survives all this with the help of the handsome British gentleman, Henry Dashwood, whom she met during the fateful performance, and when he rescues her from the roadside, she begins a new and dangerous journey. In a society where gypsy origin is considered worthy of capital punishment, Henry has decided to help Emma get back on her feet, and hatches a plan that could be the salvation or ruin of them both.

“When I pictured what today would look like, it never involved me standing here, alone at the alter, humiliated, as the prying eyes of guests etched at me like daggers and hushed whispers rose amongst them, with the collective gasps of disbelief. And worse, the whole world was watching this LIVE on every local news channel”. *********************** Hi my name is Clarissa, and my perfect fairytale just turned into a public nightmare. One night before my wedding, I was drugged and woke up in a strange place. Confused, late, and barely holding myself together, I still showed up in my gown, ready to marry the man I loved. Only to be left standing at the altar. Alone. Humiliated and Live on every local news channel. But that's not even the cherry on top. The real heartbreak? Is that not only did he ditch me, but I caught him later…..in bed, sexually tangled in my sister's arms. My blood. So I did what any broken, furious woman would do. I turned to the one man who could ruin him, His powerful, dangerously sexy billionaire father, Victor Gonzales. It was supposed to be a game. A scandalous way to burn them both. But Victor isn’t a man you use and walk away from. He’s older. Smarter. Wickedly dominant. And he’s made it clear, if I play with fire, I will get burned. Now, I’m caught in a forbidden game of lust, lies, and revenge. And the more I fall for him, the harder it becomes to remember who’s using who. He was meant to be a pawn. But he just might become my greatest temptation….and my deepest downfall.

Pagkalipas ng tatlong taon ay nagbalik siya, at narinig ko siyang pinag-uusapan ang tungkol sa dovorce. Wala siyang sinabi kahit na matapos niyang makuha ang aking pagkabirhen bago siya umalis. Sobrang sakit ng naramdaman ko. Hindi niya ako binigyan ng pagkakataong maging mabuting asawa para sa kanya, pero gusto niya pa rin akong hiwalayan. Hindi dahil mahal ko siya, kundi dahil inakala kong naging tapat ako sa kanya habang siya naman ay nagpakasaya kasama ang kanyang kalaguyo. Ngunit nagawa pa niyang magreklamo na parang ako ang sumakal sa kanya. Galit na galit ako. Sisiguraduhin kong mahihirapan sila ng kanyang kalaguyo na makumbinsi ako sa diborsyo. Pero bakit parang iba ang ikinikilos niya? Bakit nakakaramdam ako ng pagkasabik sa tuwing magkakadikit kami?
