"I assure, all those who dared to mock me will soon regret it, especially you, my dear ex-husband!" Samantha Swan, a 24 years old young woman, orphaned and working as a waitress, found herself pregnant by Marcus Johnson, a billionaire known for his arrogance, ruthlessness, and icy heart. Her life turned into a living nightmare when she was coerced into marrying him for the sake of their unborn child. She never experienced love, only enduring abuse at the hands of Marcus and her mother in-law, until one fateful day when she could bear it no longer. She made the courageous decision to escape, even though she was pregnant. She had reached her breaking point. Realizing that she would rather be a single mother, raising her child alone, than endure the pain inflicted upon her by her husband and mother in-law under the same roof, Samantha took a leap of faith. One day, as fate would have it, she collapsed on the road, only to awaken in a grand and opulent mansion, standing before a bearded and elderly man seated in a wheelchair. "Glad you're awake, my daughter," he said with a smile. From that day forward, Samantha discovered that she was the long-lost daughter and the sole heir of the Trillionaire, Zeus Monte Verde.

Na cabine do banheiro da empresa, ouvi alguém falando mal de mim. A estagiária que eu treinei pessoalmente por três meses reclamava: — Ela é uma bruxa velha e insensível, como um robô que não sabe pensar. Quando eu estava prestes a abrir a porta para interromper, outra pessoa concordou rindo. — Os documentos estão incompletos. — Os recibos não estão em conformidade. — O chefe não assinou, não posso pagar. — As frases de sempre dela, já sabemos todas de cor! Depois que todas foram embora, voltei silenciosamente para o meu escritório. A estagiária jogou uma pilha grossa de pedidos de reembolso na minha mesa: — Não venha com um monte de desculpas de novo para não reembolsar o pessoal de propósito. Dei uma olhada na nota fiscal falsificada, mas não a desmascarei como costumava fazer. Desta vez, eu sorri levemente: — Estou com dor de cabeça, não consigo enxergar as letras direito.

Blurb: She signed the divorce papers. He never signed away his obsession. Veronica Stanford was the perfect wife—devoted, patient, and hopelessly in love. But when her billionaire husband, Jason Harper, trades her in for her treacherous best friend, Rhea, Veronica’s world shatters. Broken and betrayed, she drowns her sorrows in a bar, only to be saved by a dangerously alluring stranger with emerald-green eyes and a lethal reputation: Monte "Four" Zagcanni, the ruthless heir to a mafia empire. Four is everything Jason isn’t—dark, dangerous, and devastatingly protective. When Veronica discovers she’s pregnant with Jason’s child, she strikes a deal with Four: a fake marriage to shield her from scandal. But what starts as a cold arrangement ignites into a passion neither can resist. Jason, realizing his mistake too late, wants Veronica back—along with the son he never knew existed. But Four isn’t a man who surrenders what’s his. And Veronica? She’s done being the meek wife. Betrayal runs deep. Revenge burns hotter. As secrets unravel—her father’s bloody past, Rhea’s twisted obsession, and Jason’s deadly lies—Veronica must decide: trust the man who destroyed her once, or surrender to the devil who might destroy her forever. One wants her back. The other wants her forever. And neither plays nice.

Carla, restauratrice perfectionniste et célibataire endurcie, organise un dîner test crucial pour obtenir une étoile au guide gastronomique. Le seul critique disponible à la dernière minute est Mathis, célèbre pour ses papiers mordants… et son excentricité légendaire. Le dîner vire au fiasco burlesque : le sommelier se prend pour un danseur de tango, le soufflé s’effondre dramatiquement et Mathis semble plus intéressé par la coupe de cheveux du commis que par le homard. Furieuse et désespérée, Carla décide de le prendre à part dans l’office pour le… convaincre autrement. S’ensuit une joute verbale électrique, un baiser qui les surprend autant qu’un soufflé qui monte, et des ébats aussi passionnés qu’improbables parmi les sacs de farine et les casseroles, sous l’œil scandalisé d’un portrait de grand-mère. Le lendemain, la critique paraît : « Un restaurant où l’on mange avec les doigts… et le reste. Une expérience sensorielle inoubliable. » Et en PS : « La chef est libre samedi soir ? »

Ako si Daniel Montenegro isang kilalang Nerd na cute sa school na pinapasukan ko ngayon. Palagi ako ang target ng mga bully na sikat sa school na pinapangunahan ni Kathryn Monte Falco. Isa siyang Queen bee daw kuno at walang pwede na sumalungat sa mga gusto nito dahil para sa kanya siya ang Reyna ng mga bubuyog este ng Campus kaya kung gusto mo na maging matiwasay ang iyong buhay habang nag aaral ka pa lang ay huwag na huwag mong naisin pa na kalabanin ito. Samantala, ang aking mga papansin na magulang ay bigla na lang nalagyan ng tubig sa utak kaya naisipan nilang ipagkasundo ako na ipakasal sa she devil na ito na wala ng ginawang mabuti sa buhay ko. Makakaya ko bang makisama sa katulad nito o hihilingin ko na lang sa aking mga magulang na tanggalan na lang nila ako ng mana at ipamigay na lang sa charity ang mamanahin ko na multi billion worth of companies mula sa kanila. Kaysa ang makasama ang isang katulad nito.
