Right before my wedding, my fiancé, Benjamin Gray, holds another wedding at an old settlement with his true love, who has lung cancer. He holds Jennifer Robinson close and smiles tenderly at her underneath the starry sky. "According to the local customs here, the woman whose wedding is held first is considered a man's actual wife. I might have already registered my marriage with Samantha, but she's more like my mistress." Everyone cheers and blesses them as they toast each other and enter their room for the night. I witness all of this, but I don't cry or kick up a fuss. Instead, I make an appointment for an abortion. I've loved Benjamin for 15 years, but I still can't compare to Jennifer, who is my stepsister. If that's the case, I'll let him go. Later, I join a geological exploration and research team in the South Isles and am cut off from the world. All I leave behind is a divorce agreement and a divorce gift. Benjamin has never cared for me, so it's odd that he loses his mind overnight after my departure.

“Get out of my life, I do not need a woman like you” Thomas said as he threw the divorce papers at me after I had caught him with his ex-girlfriend a few times. My life was turned upside down when my husband rejected me and his unborn child in front of his ex-girlfriend, and I had to lose my child. When life crumbles, sometimes the only way is an unexpected offer. I found myself staring at a proposal from the last man I ever imagined, the youngest billionaire. Cold, calculating, he promises me everything I need to rebuild in exchange for a simple arrangement; Bear me a child within a year and leave after. A simple arrangement, or so it seemed. But as I step into his world, I quickly realize nothing is as it seems. The power, the desire, the dangerous game we’re playing… it all becomes far too real. Can I keep my heart intact and leave once the arrangement is fulfilled? Or will I find myself entangled in a way I never expected?

Léa menait une vie paisible auprès de Thomas, un homme doux et prévisible qu’elle s’apprêtait à épouser. Mais le retour inattendu de Nathan, son frère jumeau au charme ravageur et à l’âme libre, fait éclater son univers bien ordonné. Lors d’une fête organisée en son honneur, Nathan fait une entrée remarquée et dans le cœur de Léa, une faille s’ouvre. Son regard brûlant, ses mots empreints de passion, sa façon de vivre sans limites… tout en lui la déstabilise et l’attire irrésistiblement. Entre raison et désir, loyauté et tentation, Léa vacille. Et si le véritable amour ne se trouvait pas là où elle l’avait toujours cru ? Quand deux cœurs battent à contretemps… lequel faut-il écouter ?

Si Léa ay namumuhay ng mapayapa kasama si Thomas, isang mahinahon at predictable na lalaki na kanyang pakakasalan. Ngunit ang hindi inaasahang pagbabalik ni Nathan, ang kanyang kambal na kapatid na may nakakamanghang alindog at malayang kaluluwa, ay nagpapabagsak sa kanyang maayos na mundo. Sa isang salu-salo na inihanda para sa kanya, si Nathan ay pumasok nang may kapansin-pansin na presensya at sa puso ni Léa, isang bitak ang nagbukas. Ang kanyang nag-aapoy na tingin, ang kanyang mga salitang puno ng pagnanasa, ang kanyang paraan ng pamumuhay na walang hangganan… lahat sa kanya ay naguguluhan at hindi maiiwasang humahatak sa kanya. Sa pagitan ng rasyonalidad at pagnanasa, katapatan at tukso, si Léa ay naguguluhan. At kung ang tunay na pag-ibig ay hindi matatagpuan sa lugar na palagi niyang inisip? Kapag ang dalawang puso ay tumitibok sa hindi pagkakasabay… aling dapat pakinggan?

She loved him in silence. From the moment she could remember, Sophia Thomas had watched Daniel Harper — her older brother Nathan’s golden-boy best friend — from afar. He was everything: charming, confident, kind. And to him? She was just “Nathan’s little sister.” At fifteen, she tried not to care. Tried not to notice how his smile lit up a room or how his laughter made her heart race. But when Daniel comes home from college and agrees to tutor her in math, Sophia realizes something painful: She never stopped loving him. As they spend more time together, buried feelings begin to surface — on both sides. What starts as stolen glances and quiet longing turns into late-night talks, shared secrets, and moments neither of them expected. But there are rules: - Don’t fall for your brother’s best friend. - Don’t let him see you as anything more than family. - Don’t believe he’ll ever feel the same. Too late.

The day I married Santino Connor, he went from the infamous heir of a mafia fortune to a broke nobody. When he handed me a plastic ring in a shabby basement and asked if I would start from scratch with him, I looked at the man I had loved since I was a girl and nodded without a second thought. "Santino, as long as it was with you, I would do anything." For him, I worked more than ten hours a day until my stomach bled from the stress. Our son, from the moment he could walk, trailed me from one odd job to the next. I thought my love could eventually build us a life in the sun. Until, at a lavish banquet where I was serving the elite, he showered me with cash from his seat at the head of the table. "What's that thing crawling on the floor? It's blocking my view!" "Take the money and get out of my sight!" When I saw the woman by his side, her face an eerie copy of my own, I finally understood. To him, this was just a game, and I was the only one playing for keeps. If he was going to go to such lengths to deceive me, then it was time for his game to end. What he didn't know was that one month later, he would be tearing the world apart to find me.
