Ambitious journalist Renee takes on her riskiest assignment yet: going undercover to expose the criminal empire of billionaire mafia boss Luca Delvecchio. Her mission is to seduce him, gather evidence, and bring his world crashing down. But as she gets closer to Luca, the line between deception and desire begins to blur. Now Renee must choose between the story of her career and a man who's as alluring as he is dangerous.

She was his secret. Until he proposed to another woman — live on Inst*gr*m. Now Alaya Moore has nothing… until the day he dies and leaves her everything: The mansion. The money. The company. And every enemy he ever made. They called her the side chick. But she’s about to show the world she was the real queen all along.

Warning... or Invitation? That choice is yours. This isn’t a fairytale. This isn’t about sweet kisses beneath cherry blossoms or soft smiles under the stars. No. This is raw, This is reckless, This is “Burning Embers: Scorching Tales of Desire” A collection of BL short stories carved from lust, laced with obsession, and kissed by chaos. Each chapter stands on its own, a world where strangers become addictions, roommates cross lines, enemies blur into lovers, and the line between want and need snaps without warning. These men don’t fall in love. They fall into temptation. They crash into each other like lightning against the sea, loud, unforgiving, and beautiful in their destruction. You’ll find no gentle romance here. Only the ache of fingertips brushing where they shouldn't, the weight of glances held too long, the gasp before the plunge. This is for the ones who know love isn’t always tender. That sometimes, the most unforgettable stories are the ones written in bruises and longing. This is for those who crave stories that leave a mark, who don’t flinch when desire gets messy, when hearts bleed a little before they beat as one. Not for the faint-hearted. Not for the clean-handed. This is for the bold, the brave, the ones who dare to touch the flame even if it burns. So turn the page. Step into the fire. But don’t say I didn’t warn you--- Because once the embers catch, they never go out.

Mon compagnon, ainsi que mon frère, m'ont détestée pendant douze ans. Ils croyaient toujours que j'avais volé les recherches sur les herbes médicinales de leur précieuse Sarah, et que je l'avais harcelée pendant douze ans pour la réduire au silence. Lors de ma cérémonie de marquage, ils ont dévoilé mes « crimes » au monde entier. « C'est une brute qui maltraite les membres de sa meute, et une voleuse, qui a volé les formules d'herbes de Sarah ! » Mais Sarah a souri à travers ses larmes : « La formule n'a plus d'importance. » « Du moment qu'elles peuvent sauver notre meute du poison d'argent, peu importe qui les a créées. » « Je lui ai déjà pardonné. » Elle est devenue l'ange miséricordieux de la meute. J'ai été condamnée par tous, jusqu'au jour où le loup-garou que j'avais sauvé grâce à mes remèdes a versé de l'eau argentée sur ma tête. Et dans mon désespoir, j'ai entraîné Sarah dans la mort avec moi. Quand j'ai rouvert les yeux, j'étais de retour en deuxième année de lycée. Sarah tenait une petite lame en argent et se tailladait le bras tout en me demandant avec un sourire : « T'as réfléchi à comment t'allais t'excuser ? » Quelque chose en moi a soudain craqué. Ma puissance d'Alpha a jailli, la forçant à se mettre à genoux. J'ai arraché la lame : « Laisse-moi te montrer ce qu'est une vraie coupure. »
