"My life was ash. Burned to the ground. Razed with no chance of rebuilding.Empty.Alone.Just as I had to be.No one else was going to get hurt because of me. No more deaths.For years I’ve secluded myself, stayed in the darkness, and tried to melt into the background. Hiding in plain sight.Taking a new job, working in close confines with a new partner, is risky, and I thought I was up to the task. So I hide behind a mask of my own making, a façade for the world.The problem is, I can’t stop thinking about my new partner. I hate her, but I crave her like she’s the most intoxicating thing I’ve ever encountered.It’s maddening, but I need to stay away. I have to stay away.I can’t love anyone ever again."

We don't choose the parents we are born to, neither do we choose our mate. Moonstone city is home to multiple werewolf clans cohabitating in an odd mixture of traditional werewolf beliefs and modern lifestyle. Ada King is the daughter of one of the most powerful Alphas and has been educated in manners, politics and cold-blooded decision making fit for the "princess" of the city. Everyone expects a typical life of being mated to another Alpha and becoming an influential Luna; however, what is not typical is that Ada not only searches for her mate for months but also rejects him in a conference room full of witnesses, and with a signed contract. Damien Sevach, furious of losing his mate in such a way, requests an ultimatum of "Mates with Benefits". He wants to learn what motivated Ada and what hides behind her perfect façade.

Rosalia Nuñes is wrongfully kidnapped by the notorious Leonardo Sal. A ridiculously hot but despicable man who cares for no one else but himself. With all attempts to escape him, she must learn how to survive and stay true to herself and prevent the hatred for him from consuming her. Will she ever see the man behind the façade, or will she kill him at the first chance she gets? Moreover, two worlds collide, when betrayal, secrets, violence, passion, and power surface. ----------   “I will be the second person you send to a mental institution.”  Ruining her life purposefully. And all for what?  Because he has the power to.  Who gave him the right to play GOD?  “I swear, if I make it out of this alive, I am going to kill you, imbecile.”

Mae Cooper me acusa de forçar acônito goela abaixo dela, alegando que não consegue respirar e que sua loba está gravemente ferida, mal conseguindo se manter viva. Meu companheiro, Alfa Cole Grimaldi, e nossos dois filhotes decidem me dar uma lição, trancando minha irmã Ômega em uma enorme gaiola de prata e ameaçando banhá-la com acônito. Eu me debato violentamente e imploro para que a libertem, mas nada do que eu faça muda a decisão deles. Infelizmente, minha irmã morre e, com ela, o amor que um dia senti por eles também morre.

By day, he’s just another broke guy with worn-out shoes and a charming smile. But behind the façade, Alec Blackwell is a billionaire tycoon—owner of a global empire and a ruthless legal mastermind. Tired of gold diggers and fake affections, Alec disguises himself as an average man, swiping through dating apps in search of something real. No private jets. No designer suits. Just raw chemistry and brutal honesty. Then he meets Zara Lane—a fiercely independent hustler juggling three jobs, a sharp tongue, and zero patience for games. She doesn’t care for his sob stories or smooth talk. She wants respect, not romance. But Alec’s world is built on secrets. And Zara’s life is about to crash straight into a truth more shocking than either of them expected. Because in a game of lies, power, and attraction… Who really holds the upper hand?

Playing with fire! Addison Bryant has been Andrey Romanoff’s perfect Executive Assistant for five years, accommodating him to the extent of hiding her real personality behind a façade of calm efficiency. Her job from hell will soon be over. Ready to claim her life back and walk away from Lucifer itself, currently disguised as her boss, Addison plucks up the courage to say “Damn you! I quit!” Nothing has ever taken Andrey Romanoff by surprise… up until now. And the word ‘NO’ just isn’t part of his vocabulary. So, a resignation from his extraordinary Executive Assistant is absolutely unacceptable. Her place is with him, by his side… end of discussion! Addison heard all about his legendary charm, but now that it’s turned on her, she understands exactly why it’s so hard to say no to a man like Andrey Romanoff.

Restaurateur and self-exiled heir Lucien Lenault's first look at the breathtaking young chef trainee for his trendy Chicago restaurant is a shock. She’s Elise Martin, daughter of a wealthy French fashion designer. She’s also the holder of a secret that could explode his carefully laid plans. Notorious for her flagrant exhibitionism, and for flouting the respectable façade of her aristocratic background, the coquine’s wild streak shocked most people. Not Lucien. He was tempted by it. It was a deliriously punishable offense as far as Lucien was concerned. But taking on Elise is more than a game. She’s a catastrophe waiting to happen, an inferno that’s burned many a lover. Lucien isn’t most men, however, and he won’t allow her to manipulate him. In order to control the defiant beauty—in order to see her submit—he’s going to have to willingly walk in the flames…

Mon frère était à une soirée, je suis allée le chercher. J'ai entendu mon frère demander à Lucas Bernard : « Tu as une petite amie, non ? Ça fait longtemps et je ne l'ai jamais vue. » J'ai soudain été prise de panique. Cela faisait trois ans que Lucas et moi étions ensemble, mais dans le secret. Personne ne le savait. Lucas a répondu d'une voix traînante : « Ce n'est pas une petite amie, juste un passe-temps. De toute façon, je ne compte pas me marier avec elle. » J'ai serré les poings et j'ai directement poussé la porte de la pièce.

Nora et Théo Castel pensaient fuir la ville pour une nouvelle vie. Ils n'imaginaient pas tomber sur ça. Dans la petite ville balnéaire de Sainte-Luce-sur-Mer, tout le monde se connaît, tout le monde sourit et tout le monde cache quelque chose. Dès leur première semaine, les invitations pleuvent : apéros, dîners, soirées entre voisins. La communauté est chaleureuse, séduisante, presque trop parfaite. Puis les nuits commencent à déborder. Ce qui semblait n'être que des dîners entre adultes libérés se révèle être bien plus : Vous ne regarderez plus jamais vos voisins de la même façon.

Trois jours après ma mort, mon fiancé a reçu un coup de fil pour identifier mon cadavre. « Si elle est morte, enterrez-la avant de me prévenir. » Il a répondu avec impatience. Le policier n'avait pas d'autres choix que d'appeler mon deuxième contact d'urgence, mon ami intime d'enfance. Ce dernier a laissé échapper un rire froid : « Est-elle vraiment morte ? Ce n'est pas à de récupérer le cadavre de toute façon. Brûlez-la directement et débarrassez-vous de la cendre comme vous voulez. » Au moment où mon corps a été exposé sur Internet, mon fiancé et mon ami d'enfance étaient totalement bouleversés...
