Parisian Café

RÉSUMÉ Ronan Blackthorne prend le même café tous les matins. Noir, sans sucre. Servi par la même serveuse qui ignore tout de sa fortune colossale. Annabelle le prend pour un simple homme d'affaires, généreux en pourboires et doté d'un sourire ravageur. Elle est loin de se douter qu'il possède la moitié de Manhattan. Mais voilà, Ronan a un problème. Son père, décédé, vient de le ruiner. Il s'avère que son père avait une fille cachée, qui possède 35 % de tout ce que Ronan croyait lui appartenir. À présent, il traque cette mystérieuse jeune femme car sa mère, Victoria, une véritable hystérique, n'arrête pas de lui répéter qu'il faut la retrouver et faire disparaître ce secret. La barista dont il tombe amoureux est la femme qu'il recherche.

Sofia’s life isn’t easy. She’s been living alone almost all her life. She completely depends on herself. She’s twenty-four and still single. She’s working in a café for two years, but then suddenly, a small misunderstanding causes her to lose her job. After she lost her job, she received the most devastating news of her life. Her apartment caught on fire. Now that she’s jobless and now homeless. She doesn’t have any choice but to contact her last relative, which is her aunty. Sofia doesn’t want to stay with her because she’s abusive and has a bad temper. The same as her aunt’s only daughter. She can say she’s a bitch. Sofia once lived with them, but they kicked her out after all her sacrifices. She planned to live under the same roof with them for only two days until she could find her own place and job. They agreed; although she found it weird, she chose to ignore it. Little thing did she know, they would use her to pay their dept. One day after she moved out, a group of men went to their house and took her away

Nora’s tarot readings were never meant to matter. They were simple moments. A card flip. A quiet truth. Nothing that could ever disturb fate itself. Until the night the cards tremble in her hands. Until the air in the café sharpens and chills. Until something impossible steps out of the shadows. He does not belong to the world around him. His presence presses against it, ancient and heavy, unseen by everyone else. People walk past him without noticing a thing. But Nora sees him. And he is not pleased. He came to investigate the force that dared to bend fate. He expected danger. He expected power. He did not expect the girl sitting at the table with trembling cards. Every instinct tells Nora she should fear him. He is not human. Not mortal. He was never created to feel. Yet something in her pulls at him with a gravity he cannot escape. The more he watches her, the more impossible she becomes. And the more he realizes that whatever awakens inside him will not fade quietly. She may have changed someone’s fate. Now she has his attention. A forbidden attraction. A girl with a gift she barely understands. An immortal who was never meant to want. Until her. Once their paths cross, fate doesn’t just unravel. It begins to fight back.

Il est riche. Il est puissant. Il est impitoyable. Et maintenant… je lui appartiens. Je m'appelle Eléna Morel. Assistante stagiaire dans l'une des plus grandes entreprises de Paris, je menais une vie tranquille, jusqu'au jour où j’ai accidentellement renversé mon café sur Nolan Blake, le PDG milliardaire réputé pour ne jamais sourire… et pour détruire la carrière de ceux qui croisent son chemin. J’étais sûre que j’allais être virée. Mais au lieu de ça… il m’a fait une proposition. Un contrat. Un an à son service. Vingt-quatre heures sur vingt-quatre. Pas seulement comme son assistante. Comme sa compagne contractuelle. Je devais dire non. Mais j’ai besoin d’argent. De secrets à enterrer. D’un passé à fuir. Il pense pouvoir me contrôler. Il pense que je suis faible. Mais il ignore une chose : je suis bien plus dangereuse qu’il ne le croit. Et entre ses règles glaciales et nos nuits brûlantes, l’un de nous deux finira brisé. Et ce ne sera pas moi.

The first time I saw Daniel, I did not think he would become the man who would change everything. It was a quiet evening, the kind where the sky looked tired and the wind carried the scent of rain. I had gone to the café only to escape my thoughts. Love and I had never been on good terms, and I had long decided that my heart was safer when it belonged only to me. Then he walked in. He wasn’t loud or dramatic. In fact, if you weren’t paying attention, you might have missed him completely. But there was something about the way he moved—calm, steady, like a man who understood the rhythm of life. When his eyes met mine, he smiled. Not the kind of smile men give when they want something from you. No. This one was different. It was warm, patient… almost like he already knew my story. I looked away quickly, pretending to read my phone, but my heart betrayed me. It beat faster, louder, as if it was whispering a secret I was not ready to hear. That night, I didn’t know his name. I didn’t know his voice. But somehow, in the quiet space between strangers, something had already begun. And before long, Daniel would teach me something I had spent years running from: What it truly means to love… and to be loved to the full.

Alyssa Hart thought she was just another woman trying to stay invisible in a city that never sleeps. Haunted by a past she refuses to speak about, she’s learned to keep her head down and her circle small. But one rainy night in Los Angeles changes everything. Stalked through a dark alley by a man with a knife, she’s saved by a massive, golden-eyed wolf, only to watch it kill her attacker in a blur. What she doesn’t know is that the creature is Zodiak, who is the primal side of Cole Donovan, a powerful and reclusive billionaire with a secret. Cole is a centuries-old werewolf, and Alyssa is his fated mate. But when she looks at him in wolf form, all she sees is a monster. Torn between his instincts and the need to protect her, Cole decides to win her over the human way through patience, kindness, and trust. As they grow closer, Alyssa begins to feel the pull between them, even as her past begins to resurface in the form of Lucas Slater, a ruthless enemy with a vendetta and a weapon designed to destroy werewolves from the inside out. With Alyssa unknowingly caught in the crossfire and Cole hiding a truth that could destroy everything between them, fate is no longer just a distant whisper. It’s closing in on them both. Set against a backdrop of rain drenched streets, quiet cafés, and hidden danger, this is a story of two souls from different worlds, one human, one supernatural, drawn together by something neither fully understands. As secrets unravel and danger escalates, Alyssa and Cole must decide if love is worth the risk, or if fear will tear them apart before it ever has the chance to bloom.

LUNA ADELINE SOLACE has three goals in life: Avoid drama. Stay unnoticed. And never—under any circumstances—fall in love. So when a human boy kneels in front of her and proposes in the middle of a crowded café, Luna does what any sensible girl would do… She runs for her life. Unfortunately, she runs straight into the forbidden forest— and into the arms of ALPHA KAELEN VRYNN, the cold, terrifyingly gorgeous, and annoyingly bossy leader of the most powerful werewolf pack in the realm. The moment their eyes meet, Kaelen freezes. His wolf bows. His first words? “Please marry me.” Luna, confused and very much done with the universe, throws a rock at him. But fate doesn’t care about her resistance. Because Luna isn’t human. Kaelen, her fated mate, refuses to let that happen. What follows is chaos, comedy, and a war written in moon fire— a jealous Alpha trying (and failing) to act normal, a sarcastic heroine who would rather fight monsters than admit she’s falling in love, and a prophecy that whispers a terrifying truth: “Their union will awaken an ancient monster.” As Luna’s forgotten past resurfaces —her murdered parents, her stolen crown, and the night Kaelen found her as a child— the bond between them deepens into something powerful, dangerous… and irreversible. But when Luna must choose between her mate’s life and her kingdom’s survival, destiny demands a price neither of them are ready to pay. In a realm of magic, betrayal, and impossible love, one thing is certain— He will burn the world to protect her.

Zoé, 29 ans, est une illustratrice un peu maladroite mais brillante, qui noie ses insomnies dans des litres de café, des podcasts sur l’amour toxique… et les sextoys qu’elle teste pour son blog anonyme. Elle pense avoir tout compris de l'amour jusqu'à ce qu’elle tombe (littéralement) dans les bras de Jules, un photographe ténébreux qui lui donne envie d’effacer toutes ses règles. Mais il y a Raphaël, son meilleur ami depuis dix ans, confident de toutes ses crises existentielles, qui l’aime en silence… sauf que maintenant, il ne se tait plus. Alors que Jules l’entraîne dans un tourbillon de passion charnelle, entre jeux interdits et confessions à demi-nus, Raphaël, lui, lui offre une tendresse brûlante, pleine de regards qui savent déjà tout d’elle. Zoé, tiraillée entre la brûlure du désir et la douceur du cœur, se perd dans un triangle aussi torride que cruel. Entre scènes sulfureuses, maladresses hilarantes (et orgasmes imprévus), Zoé va devoir faire un choix. Mais l’amour n’a rien d’un scénario bien rangé. Et parfois, aimer, c’est aussi faire mal à soi, ou à l’autre. Un roman où on rit, on pleure, on soupire… et on fond.
