« Tu ne m’as jamais aimée. Je n’étais que ta couverture. » « Et tu étais parfaite pour ça. » Léa pensait s’être mariée par amour, jusqu’au jour où elle surprend son mari au lit avec sa demi-sœur, avouant que leur mariage entier n’était qu’un mensonge destiné à dissimuler leur liaison interdite. Trahie, menacée et enceinte de six mois, elle fuit directement vers l’homme capable de détruire son ex : Stéphane Montenegro, le père puissant et brouillé d’Éthan. Froid, autoritaire et deux fois plus âgé qu’elle, Stéphane lui offre bien plus qu’une échappatoire : il lui propose la vengeance, la protection, une nouvelle vie et bientôt, quelque chose de dangereusement addictif : son contact, sa protection, son lit. Mais quand la vengeance se transforme en passion et que les papiers de divorce deviennent des vœux de mariage, Léa se retrouve non seulement sa femme… mais aussi la belle-mère de son fils. Dans ce jeu tordu de représailles, le véritable prix n’est pas seulement la destruction : c’est de conquérir l’homme qui était destiné à lui appartenir depuis toujours.

This is the sequel to "Trio of Mates" (can be found on here) and is NOT a stand-alone book. I felt as if I had just fallen asleep when flashes and fragments of dreams began to play through my mind. They are disjointed, speeding through my mind almost too fast to catch. There is Charlie holding two pups in her arms, the pack being attacked on the western front, Arya fallen to her knees sobbing in the middle of a battlefield, funeral pyres, me looking down at my pregnant stomach with Gael and Hakeem smiling down at me, whoops of victory, and wails of defeat. As the images flit through my mind, a voice enters the chaos. “A war of threes. Three deaths. Three victories. Three trios. Three losses. Betrayal. Birth. Death. Sorrow. Joy. Warn them, Meredith. Be prepared!”

When our marriage contract expired, I found out I was pregnant. Charlie Newman’s voice was icy. "If it’s a boy, we’re even." I asked quietly, "And if it’s a girl?" He paused–then said coldly, "Then we keep trying until you give me a son." I sighed. Three years of marriage couldn’t compete with the need for an heir. However, one night, when I went downstairs for water, I saw him kneeling in the attic, eyes devout, voice trembling. "Merciful God, please grant me a daughter. If you hear my prayer and make my wish come true, I will give generously to your church and serve you faithfully all my life."

My husband had a severe addiction for physical intimacy. However, in the seven years of our marriage, he never touched me, not even once. To suppress his urges, he soaked himself in bone-chilling ice water every night. His arms were covered in needle marks from constant injections. It broke my heart to see him like that. I offered myself to him many times, but he insisted on simply giving me a restrained kiss on the forehead before saying, “Don’t be silly, Summer. I’m not like those animals. How could I ever bear to hurt you? For you, I’d gladly live the rest of my life in a platonic marriage.” This strange, almost obsessive restraint of his lasted seven years. Despite the numerous times he pushed himself far enough to end up hospitalized, he still refused to cross that line. Then, on our wedding anniversary, a young woman named Anna Brandt came in for her ninth hymen restoration surgery. After the anesthetic was administered, her cheeks flushed red. As her mind grew hazy, she started crying weakly like a lost kitten. Looking at the love bites scattered across her body, I shook my head and assumed she was just another girl who had gone astray. That was until I heard her last tearful whisper. “John Shaw, you jerk.” My hand trembled and I nearly dropped the scalpel. Because my husband’s name also was John Shaw.
