Synopsis - Isabelle Ellwood, a plain, fuller-figured 19-year-old, hides her poetic soul and dreams of teaching behind dry wit, overshadowed by her beautiful sister who is counted as a family jewel for her grace and beauty and an ambitious father dreaming of snagging a royal title. When Prince Sebastian Nathaniel Winthorne, a bold, dark, and formidable warrior-king at 30, announces a bride-selection season at Cresthaven Palace, Isabelle dares to hope—not for love, but to glimpse the scarred-handed savior of her childhood. Unbeknownst to her, and him, he’s Sebastian, whose commanding presence and passionate heart blind him to her worth, fixated instead on the angelic Amelia Everhart, Isabelle's dearest friend. A secret library meeting shatters Isabelle’s illusions: Sebastian seeks her help to woo Amelia, praising her mind yet oblivious to her love. Their friendship deepens—his admiration grows, her longing festers—culminating in a rain-soaked confrontation where the lavender and breeze ignites his primal desire, clashing with her insecurities. Public scorn and familial cruelty drive Isabelle to flee, forcing Sebastian to confront the void she leaves. As time apart unravels his obsession with Amelia, he pursues Isabelle, his awakening raw and relentless. Their reunion at a glittering ball sparks a dance of resentment and longing, leading to a climactic confession where love triumphs over doubt. Isabelle’s journey from invisible dreamer to empowered princess, and Sebastian’s shift from idealized obsession to soul-deep love, crafts a tale of unseen hearts finding their place—a fiercely unique love story for readers craving wit, angst, and romance. In the opulent yet unforgiving world of Regency-inspired Eldoria, The Crown's Wrong Kiss weaves a slow-burn romance of unrequited love, repressed desire, and transformative self-worth.

16 year old Scarlet Paine struggles to understand what’s happening to her, as she wakes and realizes she’s becoming a vampire. Alienated from her parents and her friends, the only person she has left to turn to is Sage, the mysterious boy who has quickly become the love of her life.

As the book culminates in an action-packed, shocking twist, Scarlet will be left with a monumental choice—one that will change the world forever. Will Scarlet make the ultimate sacrifice to save Sage’s life? Will she risk everything she has for love?

I took a shortcut through the alley and watched Dante Marchetti put a bullet in a man like it was nothing. He saw my face. That was the end of my normal life. Within an hour I was in the back of his car being driven to an estate I had never seen before with gates that locked from the outside and a wardrobe full of clothes in my exact size waiting like someone had known I was coming before I did. He told me I wasn't a prisoner but a guest. He said people who wanted to find me were considerably worse than him and that his walls were the only thing standing between me and a conversation I wouldn't survive. Maybe he was right. The problem is the longer I stayed the harder it became to remember which one was true. Because the man who caught me in that alley wasn't the only version of him. There was another one that nobody else seemed to get to see. The one who stood alone in his dead mother's library looking tired in a way that had nothing to do with sleep. The one who had my cat brought to the estate because he heard me crying through a closed door and didn't know what else to do about it. The one who almost smiled when I threw a glass at his head. That version of him was the one I couldn't stop thinking about. I came here as a witness. I stayed as something else entirely. Somewhere between the locked doors, the candlelit dinners and the secrets we started sharing in the dark I stopped wanting to leave. The question was whether a woman like me could survive loving a man like him. I was about to find out.

Minha irmã e eu éramos gêmeas. Nascemos do mesmo ventre… E fomos marcadas pela mesma sentença: uma grave doença nos rins. Depois de anos esperando por um milagre, dois rins compatíveis finalmente surgiram. A chance de salvar duas vidas. Mas, diante do meu noivo, ela chorou, implorou e pediu os dois só pra ela. Eu me recusei. Como resposta, ele me trancou em casa. E ela recebeu ambos os rins. Ele segurou meu queixo, os olhos frios como navalha: — Você não fica doente há tanto tempo quanto sua irmã. Ela só quer viver como uma pessoa normal. Por que está sendo tão egoísta? Espera o próximo rim, não pode? Mas o que ele não sabia… É que eu não teria tempo. Porque eu… Já estava morrendo.

Fünf Jahre lang waren wir ein Paar, doch mein Freund, ein Anwalt, sagte ganze 52 Mal unsere Hochzeit ab. Beim ersten Mal machte seine Praktikantin, die er betreute, einen Fehler mit einem Formular in der Kanzlei. Daraufhin eilte er sofort zurück und ließ mich den ganzen Tag allein am Strand zurück. Beim zweiten Mal erfuhr er mitten in der Zeremonie, dass ein anderer Anwalt die Praktikantin schikanierte. Also ging er, um ihr zu helfen, und ließ mich zum Gespött der Gäste zurück. Danach, egal für welchen Termin ich die Hochzeit ansetzte, die Praktikantin hatte immer irgendein Problem, das seine Hilfe erforderte. Schließlich war ich völlig entmutigt und frustriert. Ich beschloss, Schluss zu machen. Doch an dem Tag, an dem ich aus Stadt A wegzog, suchte er mich wie verrückt.

« Moi, Derrick Brown, je n'accepterai jamais une personne aussi méprisable alors que j'ai à mes côtés une femme aussi belle et élégante que celle-ci. » dit-il en s'approchant lentement, son regard perçant me transperçant le cœur. « Pandora Miller, je te refuse comme compagne. » conclut-il, provoquant un éclat de rire général.

Que se passera-t-il lorsque Derrick, son premier compagnon, refusera de la laisser partir ? Que se passera-t-il lorsque des forces s'allieront pour lui ravir sa seconde chance de connaître le véritable amour et un dénouement heureux ?

„Ich, Riccardo Saviano, zukünftiger Alpha des Grauen Schattenmond-Rudels, weise dich, Artemisia Guerrieri, Tochter von Alpha Franco des Blutmond-Rudels, als meine Gefährtin und zukünftige Luna zurück.“ Ein einziger Satz. Ein einziger dummer Satz genügte, um mein Leben zu zerstören. Und am Tag meines Geburtstags, an dem mir dieser Satz dreist entgegengeschleudert wurde, verlor ich die Liebe meines Lebens, meinen zukünftigen Gefährten und meine Wölfin auf einen Schlag. Als ich noch Jahre später versuche die Scherben meines zerbrochenen Herzens zusammenzusetzen, erscheinen sie. Wie ein Blitz aus einem kristallklar-blauen Himmel. Meine Gefährten. Doch Moment mal... Wenn ich mit doch von der Götting für Drillinge bestimmt bin, wie kommt es dann, dass ich gleich mit fünf atemberaubenden Männern gepaart werde?

"What are you doing, Ms. Samantha?" Jack angrily said after seeing the employee chit-chatting with some random guys while the other girls are waiting for her service.  The surprised look was evident to the librarian when she sees her boss in front of them. She also stood up in her seat, and she gave a quick bow to her boss. But Jack ignored it. He walks in the direction of a librarian. "This is not an hour of flirting. I'm not paying you a lot of money only to flirt. But, if you like to seduce some guys. So, why don’t we make it intense for the men you’re flirting with? Hmm?" He smirks at his librarian, whose name is Samantha. "S-Sir…I-I'm sorry…I-I will never do…i-it…a-again…j-just please…s-spare my life." "Oh, sweetie, I'm not going to kill you. But, I'll help you to seduce a guy, you want?"The woman quickly shook her head many times because of fear. "N-no…no… si-sir please…no!" But she can't stop her boss from ripping her uniform. When Jack finished tearing off her upper and lower uniform, he even grinned demonically. "You're welcome, sweetie, don't cry. I'm just helping."
