Proud Yourself

HIS TOUCH, HER FIRE 🔥 --- Synopsis: She was the fire he never saw coming. He was the storm she was never meant to survive. Evelyn Grace Carter lives in a world of dirt roads, stubborn horses, and southern skies. She’s proud of her simple roots and fierce independence—until a twist of fate drags her into the ruthless world of the Romanos, New York’s most powerful and scandalous family. Damien Romano is one of the infamous triplets—wealthy, cold, and devastatingly magnetic. He lives in a glass empire of power plays, designer suits, and forbidden pleasures. But when he crosses paths with a wild, sharp-tongued country girl who wants nothing to do with his empire, his world ignites in ways he never expected. They begin as enemies—clashing over business, pride, and the sparks neither of them can control. But in the shadows of city towers and under moonlit skies, desire turns to obsession, and hate melts into hunger. Their love is a dangerous rebellion—threatened by secrets, family wars, and the world that says they should never be. But some flames aren’t meant to be tamed. Some touches are forever. His Touch, Her Fire is a steamy, enemies-to-lovers romance about two hearts colliding in a world that burns too hot to survive. --

After the 100th failed fertility treatment, my husband, who had been previously diagnosed with a low sperm count, spoke coldly. “Lucy is very fertile. She gets pregnant after our first time, unlike you. You just can’t conceive.” Lucy was my adoptive sister. While holding her hand, he laid out three options for me. I could either ignore their affair and retain my title as the CEO’s wife, take the ten million dollars and disappear, or walk away with nothing at all. The whole town knew how proud I was. They also knew how deeply I loved him. They surely expected me to be mad with jealousy and choose honor over compromise. But I neither cried nor made a scene. I calmly slid the check back across the table. “The child will call me Mom. I’ll stay and be Mrs. Carter.” After all, this was my third time to live such a life. The first time, I chose to leave with nothing but my dignity. The second time, I took the money, but had to live in shame. Both decisions ended in tragedy. For the third time, perhaps three of us could just... make it work.

Gustav grinned like the psycho he was, finding excitement to see his own daughter quivering in fear. “Almost the same honey. Now choose. Will you save the man you love, or yourself?” Shutting her eyes, Agatha lifted the gun up, and the next time her eyes opened, they were burning with rage. “Fuck love.” _______________________________ The Mafia world is filled with all kinds of crime and sin, committed by their very own Lords.

He looked genuinely surprised, then let out a mocking laugh. "Are you sure about this? You raised the girls yourself, and you're just giving them up?
