Ashley Black glaubte, sie hätte alles: die perfekte Ehe und den perfekten Ehemann. Bis zu jener Nacht, als er nach Hause kam und ihr Herz in tausend Stücke zerbrach. „Du wirst aus dieser Ehe gehen, wie du hineingekommen bist, nur mit deiner Kleidung. Du wirst keinen Cent bekommen, weder ein Haus noch ein Auto. Unterschreib und verschwinde.“ Ich kämpfte gegen die Tränen an, während ich die Papiere unterschrieb, und als ich ihn ansah, hätte ich fast nach Luft geschnappt, so viel Hass lag in seinem Blick. „An dem Tag, an dem du deinen Fehler erkennst, wird es zu spät sein“, sagte ich emotionslos. Als ich zur Tür ging und gerade hinaustreten wollte, packte mich jemand fest am Arm, sodass ich aufwimmerte. „Warum sollte ich jemanden wie dich, so widerwärtig und hässlich, jemals wieder wollen? Ich bin froh, dass ich dich endlich los bin. Warum sollte ich zu dir zurückkommen, Ash?“ Ich spürte, wie mein Herz in tausend Stücke zersprang, als ich diese verletzenden Worte hörte. Ashley verließ das Haus mit gebrochenem Herzen und schwanger, nachdem er sie vertrieben hatte. Fünf Jahre später erkannte Adrian den Fehler, den er damals begangen hatte, doch die Frage ist: Wird Ashley ihm verzeihen können? Erfahren Sie, was zwischen Ashley und Adrian in diesem Liebesroman geschehen wird.

Olivia Jamerson spent years stewing in hidden rage for the person behind all her high-school ridicule and embarrassment. That person was none other than Joshua Taylor, son of the football coach and the famed bully of Westminster High. Students feared him, his friends revered him and teachers were sick of him. Two years after graduation and leaving town, Olivia had changed her whole appearance and character so much that no one could recognize her. Drowning in the sea of New Yorkers, Olivia finally felt that she had left her past behind and become a whole new person. At least that was the case until she bumped into the unlikeliest person she expected to meet in the big city—her old bully. Despite being annoyingly hotter than she remembered, the only thing that bothered her was that he was disturbingly nice, but worst of all, he did not remember her. Things turn a whole lot crazier when she finds out that Joshua has amnesia and when he starts flirting with her as if they did not have a complicated past. A big city, sparks and tension, and two people—one with bitter memories of their relationship and one with a blank canvas eager to fill it with potential memories. Will their tragic past catch up to them and will their horns lock once again? Will Olivia hold on to her grudges and lock him out of her life once again, or will she open her heart to the new and improved Joshua?

Le jour du troisième anniversaire de mon union avec Kévin Rogier, Alpha de la tribu l'Ombre, je lui ai préparé un cadeau. C'était un test de grossesse marqué de deux lignes rouges. Son cadeau pour moi, en revanche, était un contrat visant à dissoudre notre union. En voyant le document, j'avais les yeux qui sortaient des orbites, oubliant momentanément de tendre la main pour le prendre. Kévin s'est éclairci la gorge avec embarras et a expliqué : « Susie a été trompée par un scélérat et est tombée enceinte. Son futur enfant, né hors mariage, ne pourra pas prétendre aux droits de résidence de la tribu », a-t-il poursuivi, « Je propose de rompre temporairement notre union afin que je puisse en établir une provisoire avec elle, lui accordant ainsi un statut légal à son enfant. Une fois qu'elle aura accouché, nous nous remettrons ensemble. D'accord ? » Il m'a tendu le papier de nouveau, qui avait manifestement été préparé depuis un bon moment. Remarquant mon hésitation, il a continué avec une voix tendre : « C'est toi que j'aime. Ce n'est que par amitié que je l'aide. Même si nous nous séparons, je ne te laisserai subir aucune injustice. » J'ai levé les yeux vers lui, souriante et sans dire un mot, caressant le test de grossesse dans ma poche. Les deux lignes rouges étaient visibles depuis longtemps.

A particularly dark tale. Not for the faint of heart. He was the all-powerful Magistrate Mathis. The man that accused the witches and then found them guilty in the dungeons of WitchFall Fortress. I had feared ever being one of them, but not enough to be dissuaded from figuring out why he didn't seem to be what he was. So I followed him into the woods one day and discovered the one secret he was willing to wreak havoc to keep. The secret he'd make me pay for ever knowing. And if he couldn't have me on my terms, well he was certainly powerful enough to find a way, wasn't he? The most horrible kind of way... Barely understanding what was happening, I soon found myself in the worst place I could possibly be. Under his complete control...

MANAGING MAGES: Hawk had been tormenting me as long as I could remember. I was a young mage and my power was still growing. But they thrust me under his watch in the service to our Warlord. And damn him for enjoying every moment he can torment me. Every time I think my power strong enough to challenge him, he finds new ways to torture me. He's told me that I'm his little prey and he'll be kinder when I succumb to him but I've vowed to never let the overbearing, insufferable cad put a hand on my bare skin. It's a battle of wills and wits. He may be more clever but I'm certainly more stubborn! But one thing I've learned about Hawk, never underestimate his conniving...I should've known better than to challenge him. After all, he's made a name for himself by his skill in Managing Mages. But beyond him there is an even bigger problem. Warlord: The Commander of the Mage's Guild. A ruthless killer who leaves a dark mist in his wake. Escaping the Mage's Guild would mean challenging Warlord himself. A dangerous endeavor. WARLORD'S WARD He came into our village like a shadow. A Dark Mage with the most powerful magic in all the realm. King Detry merely calls him Warlord. And he owns that title. Leaving wreckage in his wake. But for me, he had other plans. His cutting blue eyes seeing straight through my disguise. As his slave, his mere plaything, I'll learn the true darkness of magic without conscience. Anything he wants of me, he takes. Anything he wants me to do. I am willed to do with the flick of his hand. His power is an all consuming whirlwind. And I'm just the pretty butterfly caught in it.

The Asara Pack - Related to The Pack's Girl There is turbulence in the Asara Pack this Mating Moon. The males and females are at war. The Mating Moon sends all wolf's blood pumping. But the females have been taught to fear the animal aggression of the males as they claim their mates under the pink moon. But the males know that to continue their assembled pack they must obey the Alpha's decree that mates will be taken under this moon and lines continued.

"I'm being forced to marry the Cruel Mafia Boss." Joanna Smith's idyllic existence was abruptly turned upside down when the Cruel Mafia Boss demanded she marry him. "Do you wish to know why I married a fragile woman like you?" He asked her, his voice icy. Joanna nodded, curious about why she married such a dangerous man. "You're repaying a debt, honey! A loan your father refused to repay before he died!" He laughed metaphorically, as if he'd said something amusing. "You're mine now, Joanna. I'm going to do insane things to your body, making you crave me, want more, and beg me to F**k you.

My wife's gym is celebrating its grand opening, and I drag my buddy along to check the place out with a 9.90-dollar trial class I bought through an e-commerce platform. For the entire time, I never once let it slip that I'm the owner. Right after we finish training, a male coach tosses a price sheet at us. His eyes sweep over us with contempt as he says, "You two look like freeloaders. Our private sessions cost a few hundred each, and we don't offer freebies to people like you." I let out a disbelieving laugh. "We paid for this trial class. How is that freeloading? Go get your manager." He rolls his eyes and makes it seem like he's enforcing a very important rule. "Don't bother looking for the manager. My girlfriend owns this place, and she hates broke losers who try to get free classes." He dials her number right in front of us. His voice sounds both arrogant and pitiful. "Babe, two guys showed up and tried to con us into giving them a free class. They even told me to call the manager. Come over here and show them what's what!"

Attending the ten-year high school reunion for the cheerleading squad and football team, I arrived in an old domestic Ford, while the parking lot was filled with Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Maybachs, and even a gold Bugatti. It was as if I were the only relic from another era. The moment I stepped out of my car, a former classmate, whose name I could no longer remember, looked at me with a sneer. “Well, if it isn’t the coach’s pet. How is it that after all these years, you’re still driving this beat-up old Ford?” “This thing looks like it belongs in a scrapyard from the last century!” During dinner, everyone gathered around the Bugatti owner, raising their glasses in celebration, while I was left ignored at the side. Only the cheerleading assistant sat next to me, raising a glass in my direction with a comforting smile. “Don’t let it get to you. Your car may be old, but I believe you’ll be driving a luxury car one day.” I let a small smirk curl at the corner of my lips and lowered my voice. “This car may look unimpressive, but it’s been fully upgraded with a carbon fiber body. It’s already worth over half a million dollars. Too bad, none of you even recognized its true value.”

Kane Porter was as boring as his name implied. Of all the financial coordinators under me, he was the one least likely to be interesting on an intoxicated evening. Kane was quiet, well-mannered and nobody was friends with him. I was his boss and I got along well with everyone until I came across a problem. The account I'd been skimming from had a good hunk of change missing now. Not good. How could I have it investigated without flagging myself for the ten thousand dollars I'd 'borrowed'? There was only one thing I could do. Porter was a nice guy. He'd help me out. No one could be safer to ask...
