At 3:00 p.m., Rose Jenkins, the new hire who had barely been here a few days, suddenly tagged me in the company group chat with a few hundred people in it. [Hi, can you stop hammering your keyboard? The noise is making my stomach hurt! The baby I'm carrying is sleeping. If you shake it into a concussion, I swear I'll make your whole family pay for it!] I rushed to explain. I was racing to finish a proposal that was due soon, and I was using a silent keyboard. But she wouldn't believe me, no matter what I said. I kept my patience and explained it over and over. To avoid any more trouble, I even asked if I could move out to the hallway to work. What I didn't expect was that a week later, she would storm into the break room with a kettle of freshly boiled water and dump it straight over my head. I collapsed in a pool of scalding water, my skin blistering and tearing open. She kept screaming as if she had lost her mind and smashed my head with her high heels, over and over. "It's all your fault! I lost the baby! Your keyboard noise shook my son to death!!" My vision blurred. By the time everything went black, I still couldn't understand how a silent keyboard could possibly kill someone. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day she first went off on me in the group chat. This time, faced with the same insults, I didn't back down. I went straight into the chat and fired back. [Stop pretending you're pregnant. You've got more going on down there than your dad does!]

Iris never imagined that love could feel so intoxicating… or so dangerous. From the moment she met Adrian, his charming smile and irresistible presence drew her in, making her forget caution and reason. On the surface, he seemed perfect — attentive, flirtatious, and seemingly devoted. But behind that captivating exterior lurked secrets she could never have predicted. What began as stolen glances and playful conversations soon escalated into something far more intense — a forbidden affair neither of them could resist. Every kiss came with a hidden truth, every touch with a lie waiting to be uncovered. As Iris is pulled deeper into Adrian’s world, she discovers that his intentions are far from pure, and that their passionate connection masks a darker, more controlling side. When the truth of his deceptions surfaces, Iris is forced to confront a harsh reality: love can be manipulative, suffocating, and even dangerous. Their entanglement spirals into a toxic dance of desire and betrayal, challenging everything she believed about loyalty, trust, and the boundaries of the heart. Caught between temptation and self-preservation, Iris must decide whether surrendering to Adrian’s magnetic pull is worth the heartbreak it could bring — or if walking away from the man who has consumed her thoughts, her body, and her emotions is the only way to survive. The Lies He Kissed Me With is a gripping, 18+ dark romance about toxic love, hidden agendas, and the fine line between passion and destruction. It is a story of obsession, betrayal, and the dangerous allure of a love built on lies — a story readers will not be able to put down until the very last chapter.

A love worth defying everything for. — When nerdy, bookish Elizabeth “Lizzie” Foster sets her eyes on Reese Blackwood at a wedding, she makes a wildly uncharacteristic decision. He’s going to be her first. Reese is charming, sexy, reckless, and far too attractive for his own good—the notorious son of a billionaire who’s never had to chase anyone in his life.

Fate, however, has other plans.

With security closing in and her future slipping away, she does the only thing that comes to mind. She grabs Reese Blackwood after seeing him in the crowd, kisses him senseless, and announces to her mother and the world: “Meet my boyfriend. We’re getting married… and I’m pregnant.” Stunned—but spotting the perfect opportunity to defy his ruthless father and an arranged marriage with an unbearable woman he never wanted—Reese plays along. Now bound by a scandalous lie, a fake relationship, and a very public fake “pregnancy,” Lizzie and Reese are forced into a dangerous game of pretence. He’s hiding secrets that could destroy them both. She’s fighting for freedom she’s never had. And neither of them expected the biggest complication of all— Falling for each other might be the one lie they can’t survive. What could possibly go right?

Victoria et Kate sont deux sœurs que tout oppose. L'une, un cœur pur, a toujours été attirée par la lumière. L'autre, plus cynique, a toujours marché dans l'ombre. Enfants, elles pensaient que leurs dons de médiums n'étaient que des bizarreries, des murmures d'esprits curieux. Mais une séance de ouija, qui tourne mal, déchire le voile entre les mondes. Une vérité oubliée depuis des millénaires leur est révélée : Victoria et Kate sont les gardiennes d'un lien ancien, sacré, entre deux forces cosmiques autrefois unies, aujourd'hui divisées. Pour l'une, cette connexion est avec l'esprit protecteur de la lumière, un être qui a tant donné qu'il en a oublié sa propre existence. Pour l'autre, c'est l'appel de l'ombre, d'une entité qui a été bannie pour une vérité qu'elle seule détient. Guidées par leurs grimoires, des livres aux pouvoirs immenses, les sœurs vont devoir apprendre à maîtriser leurs dons. Mais leur voyage n'est pas qu'une simple quête mystique. C'est un retour aux sources pour comprendre leurs propres peurs et leurs propres forces. C'est l'histoire d'un destin qui ne peut s'accomplir qu'ensemble, dans un monde où la lumière ne peut briller sans que l'ombre ne lui offre une toile.

Als ich erfuhr, dass Felix Behrens seiner kleinen Assistentin Erkältungsmedizin geben wollte, sich aber nicht um mich kümmerte, die mit Klaustrophobie im Aufzug feststeckte, reichte ich die Scheidung ein. Felix unterschrieb sofort und sagte lächelnd zu seinen Freunden: „Nur ein kleiner Wutanfall. Ihre Eltern sind tot, sie wird sich sicherlich nicht von mir scheiden lassen. Außerdem gibt es doch eine Bedenkzeit von dreißig Tagen bei der Scheidung. Wenn sie es bereut, werde ich großzügig sein und nachsehen, und sie wird zurückkommen.“ Am nächsten Tag postete er ein Paarfoto von sich und seiner Assistentin mit der Bildunterschrift: „Jeden zärtlichen Moment mit dir festhalten.“ Ich zählte die Tage herunter. Still räumte ich meine Sachen zusammen und wählte eine Telefonnummer. „Onkel, kauf mir ein Ticket nach New York.“

His hand clamped around my chin, rough and unrelenting, sending a sharp ache through my jaw. His eyes bored into mine, dark and merciless, as if he could strip away my very soul. “You belong to me now,” he snarled, his voice low and venomous. My heart hammered in my chest, each beat a desperate plea to escape. --- Nyx Caprienne was feared by all, known as “The Queen of Death.” A mercenary without equal, she moved like a shadow, silent and lethal, leaving destruction in her wake.
