"Shut down for rectification, fined $500,000, plus $300 compensation per customer. That’s the penalty from the Food Safety Bureau. Let’s see if you dare serve us gutter oil again!” Yves Larson, a part-timer at a construction site, sends me a provocative text purposefully, as though he's worried that I don't know what's going on. I just stare at the sign that says "closed for renovation", which is hung on the front door of my eatery. Never would I expect that the budget eatery that I've opened for the sake of the workers will be transformed into a blade that's aimed at me, thanks to the very same workers. That night, I sit in the apartment that my dad has left to me before his death. There, I spend the whole night smoking. Early the next morning, I head over to the bank and withdraw the money left behind by my dad, which is 260 million dollars. Half a month later, my eatery is open for business again. Work resumes at the construction site as well. Yves leads the construction workers to the restaurant at lunch. "I've taught him a good lesson last time. This time, I'm very sure that he won't have the guts to serve us cheap food made of shitty ingredients!" What he doesn't know is that the original eatery is already demolished. In its place stands a luxurious five-star restaurant. I stand in front of the main entrance as I perform a welcoming gesture to the workers. "This is a five-star restaurant that offers a private dining experience to you. The minimum bill for each table is 4000 dollars. You're welcome to dine here."

My mom treated me like the dirt beneath her shoes but worshiped my cousin like a queen. Since I could walk, I had scrubbed clothes and cooked meals, but I would still be yelled at or smacked if I messed up. On the contrary, my cousin twirled in princess dresses and played the piano. She was cherished by my aunt and uncle like she was the center of their world. Then came the day everything changed. At my cousin's birthday party, my mom got drunk and spilled the secret—she switched me and my cousin at birth. It turned out that I wasn't her daughter; I was my aunt's daughter. I was over the moon. Finally, I thought I'd found my real family, people who might actually care about me. But when I told my aunt, she just smirked. "You think I didn't know? I don't want you. You'll never be my daughter." Her words hit me like a bucket of ice water. I couldn't understand. Why didn't anyone want me? But that day, I made a vow—I'd never beg for anyone's love again. Years later, when I got into Mayward University—the best educational institution in the country—I threw two DNA test reports on the table in front of them. For the first time, they both looked terrified.

Ethan Cole is a billionaire tech heir who needs a relationship as soon as possible. Not for love, but to secure a powerful merger and win control of his family's empire. Desperate, he turns to the most unexpected person: Jamie Rivera, his charming, openly gay best friend with dreams of owning an art gallery. What begins as a harmless fake romance soon turns into real emotions, with stolen glances, strange desires and forbidden kisses. But with jealous exes, ruthless family rivals, and the media watching their every move, pretending to be in love might destroy everything, unless they’re brave enough to make it real. A swoon-worthy, slow-burn romance where fake love turns dangerously real and one kiss was all it took.

You shouldn’t be here, Fiona,” his deep voice rasped against her ear, his hand still pressed against the wall behind her. “Then tell me to leave,” she whispered, her lips trembling inches from his.

Fiona Harry has lived her whole life in a golden cage of wealth, reputation, and suffocating rules. University was supposed to be her escape, her first taste of freedom.

Between Jude, her possessive friend who knows too much, Marian, Jalen’s wicked wife, and the dangerous power of desire, Fiona is about to risk not only hers and her family’s reputation but her entire future. And what happens when the truth comes out especially to Marian?

“Next time I see you, I’m not letting you walk away.” The stranger said as Nova wiped his cum off her lips. Nova was a quiet, shy, and bookish girl… also very innocent. At least, that’s what everyone thought. Until one filthy game of truth or dare in an exclusive club stripped away her innocence and left her kneeling in the dark… mouth full of a stranger’s thick cock, swallowing every drop of his release without ever knowing his name. She fled after he finished. But he didn’t forget and neither did she. And the next day, when she followed her best friend to her father’s luxurious estate for his 45th birthday dinner, she locked eyes with the last man she expected to see— The man she gave head to the night before. Her best friend’s dad. Now he knows. Now he wants her. And Nova’s filthy little secret? She wants him too.

Tres días antes de nuestra boda, mi prometido, Raphael Russo, fue asesinado en un tiroteo entre bandas. Ni siquiera encontraron su cuerpo. Mientras me ahogaba en el dolor, unos comentarios aparecieron frente a mis ojos: [¡Despierta, niña! ¡El ataúd está vacío! ¡Fingió su muerte! El infeliz huyó para estar con esa perra manipuladora de Chloe, la que finge estar enferma]. [Mientras tú te desmoronas llorando en el funeral, Raphael se está revolcando con Chloe en la cama de un hotel]. [Cuando regrese, dirá que tiene amnesia. No sabrás nada y lo perdonarás. Pobrecita...]. Un mes después, la noticia de mi matrimonio con el Don de la mafia, Marcello Falcone, se extendió por toda Nueva York. La mano derecha de Raphael me acorraló, furioso. —¿Cómo pudiste traicionar al Jefe? Sujeté con más fuerza el brazo de Marcello y sonreí. —Una mujer no puede guardar luto para siempre, ¿verdad? Estoy segura de que Raphael, en espíritu, se sentiría feliz por mí.

Quando meu pai me pediu para escolher um dos irmãos da Família Martins, amigos de longa data da nossa família, para casar, eu escolhi Renan Martins. Apenas porque ele era o homem por quem eu fui apaixonada em segredo por treze anos. Mas, no dia do nosso casamento, sua meia-irmã se jogou do terraço do hotel. Ela deixou uma carta escrita com sangue, desejando a mim e a Renan um casamento feliz e que envelhecêssemos juntos. Só então eu soube que os dois haviam tido um amor secreto por muitos anos. Na cerimônia, Renan perdeu a compostura e anunciou que renunciaria à vida secular, me deixando sozinha e desamparada no altar. Desde então, ele passou a vida rezando por sua meia-irmã. Eu o odiei por ter me enganado, me apeguei àquele casamento e nos torturamos mutuamente. Até que fomos sequestrados e, para me salvar, ele se matou junto com os sequestradores. Antes de morrer, ele olhou para mim e disse: — Pérola, a culpa foi minha por ter escondido isso de você. — Mas a minha vida e a da minha irmã já são suficientes para quitar essa dívida, não são? — Na próxima vida, lembre-se de não me escolher. Quando abri os olhos novamente, eu havia voltado ao dia em que meu pai me pediu para escolher um noivo. Desta vez, eu, Pérola Lima, escolheria firmemente seu irmão mais velho, Davi Martins.
