Discounted Ebooks Novels & Stories

Half a year after our divorce, my ex-husband became a trending topic online. His current wife, who had just given birth, jumped off a building. When she jumped, she was clutching a printed, 98-page copy of the "Cloves Family Code of Conduct." The reason for her suicide? She couldn’t buy discounted groceries online. A reporter came to interview me and asked, "Excuse me, were you also given the same family rules?"

Elyra is stuck in a loveless marriage to Nick Radriel where she experiences abuse, betrayal and humiliation particularly from Nick's cunning mistress Stàr. When her pregnancy announcement is made fun of and her career accomplishments are discounted, her entire world falls apart. Elyra finally breaks free, slams divorce papers down and leaves only to get caught in another trap. In an attempt to save her bankrupt family she is coerced into signing a marriage contract with Nick's rival Radial who later admits that he planned her family's demise as a form of revenge. Radiel however did not expect that Elyra would emotionally test him or rekindle his love. Radiel and Elyra develop a tenuous alliance as she plans to exact revenge on Nick and Stàr. Elyra transforms from broken woman to unstoppable CEO through slow-burning chemistry, strategic maneuvers and the discovery of secrets. Elyra must choose between defending her heart and completing what she started when Nick and Stàr strike back; she had to choose between love and revenge.

As I grit my teeth and buy the last box of discounted shrimp, a young woman dressed head to toe in designer brands is picking out imported seafood beside me. She glances at me and casually drops a king crab into my cart. "It's the holidays. Treat yourself better," she says with a carefree smile. "I'll pay for everything you buy today." I am shocked when I see the five-figure price tag. I quickly try to decline her by waving my hands frantically. She pulls out a black card and shrugs. "It's fine. My sugar daddy gives me more money than I can spend. If I don't use it, he'll get mad." I force a laugh. "Sounds like he's really generous to you." "He's alright, I guess. I can't spend money as fast as he earns it," she says nonchalantly. After a slight pause, she goes on, "Speaking of which, his girlfriend is pretty dumb. She works nonstop for years just to help him pay off a debt that doesn't even exist. When I say I want him to cook on New Year's Eve, he immediately ditches his girlfriend to come be with me." I freeze for a moment. My boyfriend, Eric Sterling, is in debt. Just as I am thinking it can't be that much of a coincidence, my phone buzzes with a message from Eric. He texts, "Anne, the company assigned me to an extra shift tonight. I get triple the pay. Buy yourself something nice to eat. I'll be home tomorrow."
