Camille, dix-neuf ans, servante de cuisine dans un château isolé, vit avec sa mère malade dans une pauvreté digne mais précaire. Quand on lui ordonne de monter préparer le bain du Seigneur Alistair, elle pénètre dans l'univers clos d'un homme brisé. Lord Alistair, trente-huit ans, vit reclus depuis cinq ans, hanté par la mort de son épouse Rosalind , une femme belle et cruelle qui le trompait ouvertement avant de mourir dans un accident de chasse dont il fut accusé.

Enfermée dans une vie bien rangée, Sanaa, directrice financière au cœur blindé, ne s’attendait pas à ce que trois jours à Rome bouleversent son monde. Dans un hôtel de luxe, elle croise Raphaël, un intervenant mystérieux au regard qui déshabille, au silence chargé de promesses. Une nuit, sans un mot. Juste des corps qui se cherchent, se défient, se dévorent. Il la fait vibrer, exploser, exister. Puis disparaît au matin, ne laissant qu’un mot sur l’oreiller… et un feu nouveau dans ses veines. Ce qu’elle croyait perdu depuis longtemps renaît dans l’abandon le plus brut : le goût du risque… et du désir. La première de plusieurs histoires érotiques où l'envie se mélange à l'obsession puis devient un volcan de passion .

My father-in-law tossed a credit card across the table and looked down at me, demanding that I divorce his daughter. In my past life, I had refused with everything I had. But this time, I picked up the pen and signed the divorce papers without a second thought. Because right then, I remembered what had happened last time. In that life, I found my wife after she had lost her memory. To support her, I worked myself to the bone, delivering 200 food orders a day. But when her memories came back, she realized she was actually the daughter of the wealthy Harretts. She saw our marriage as a stain on her perfect life. To get rid of me, she pretended to have amnesia again. She said, "Since you saved me once, I'll give you some money. But after this, don't ever show up in front of me again." I refused. I stayed by her side, enduring her insults and beatings. But in the end, she ordered our son to set the fire that killed me, just so she could marry her first love. Now that I had been given another chance, I wasn't about to make the same mistake twice.

My fiancé's older brother was into girls with tiny waists. He wanted to marry my foster sister—the one with the twenty-one-inch waist. Their wedding? Same day Eric and I were supposed to get hitched. When he found out, Eric begged me to swap with Briana. "Lena, it's always been Briana. If your family hadn't found you, she wouldn't have had to play fake heiress, and I wouldn't be stuck with you." I stayed quiet. He kept digging. "Chill. My brother won't even touch you. Once the dust settles, I'll bring you back—as my side piece." Staring at that fake, slimy smile, I felt a little out of it. Last time, I told him no—and still ended up married to him, beaten until I died. Then I woke up. Same day. Same plea from Eric. This time, I handed them exactly what they wanted. "Fine. I'll marry him." Eric lit up like he'd won. Didn't last long. Next thing I knew, he was out in the rain, on his knees, clutching his head, sobbing, begging me to leave his brother and come back.
