Príncipe

Com vinte e cinco semanas de gravidez, Tatiane foi sozinha à consulta pré-natal. Foi ali que descobriu a traição do próprio marido. Mais pesada, com os traços apagados e mal conseguindo sustentar a barriga, acabou sendo tratada como uma mulher muito mais velha pela amante - jovem e bonita - e ignorada pelo marido diante de todos. Henrique não a defendeu. Não explicou. Não negou nada. Limitou-se a olhá-la com desprezo, como se ela fosse um peso do qual queria se livrar. Poucos sabiam que, anos antes, no primeiro encontro entre Tatiane e Henrique, ela também fora o centro das atenções, admirada por todos. Convencido de que Tatiane havia se aproveitado dele para ascender socialmente, foi Henrique quem tomou a iniciativa de pedir o divórcio. Naquele instante, o coração dela morreu. Oito anos. Da universidade ao mercado de trabalho. Um amor silencioso, dedicação absoluta, incontáveis sacrifícios. Nada daquilo tinha valido a pena. Tatiane deu à luz, assinou o acordo do divórcio e foi embora sem olhar para trás. Cinco anos depois, ela já não era a mulher apagada de antes. Agora, era uma empresária poderosa, dona de um império avaliado em centenas de milhões. Linda. Confiante. Radiante. Cercada por admiração, poder e possibilidades. O homem que pedira o divórcio, porém, jamais o oficializara. Quando Tatiane entrou com uma ação judicial, Henrique voltou a se aproximar, afastando, um a um, todos os homens que tentavam chegar perto dela. Até o dia em que Tatiane surgiu em público, de mãos dadas com outro homem, anunciando o noivado. Henrique a encurralou contra a parede. Fora de si, rosnou: — Tatiane, casar com outro homem? Nem pense nisso.

Prologue La nuit tombait sur la vieille demeure des Smith, drapant ses murs austères d’une ombre épaisse. Le vent murmurait entre les branches des arbres centenaires, comme s’il portait les échos d’un passé que tous avaient préféré oublier. Il y a bien des années, alors que la fortune des Smith était encore fragile, un pacte avait été scellé dans le plus grand secret. Deux patriarches, liés par une dette de sang et d’honneur, avaient échangé une promesse : un jour, leurs lignées s’uniraient par le mariage. Mais avec le temps, la prospérité des Smith avait grandi, tandis que celle des Anthony s’était effritée. Et lorsque Levy Anthony, le dernier héritier d’un nom autrefois puissant, avait hérité de ruines, les Smith avaient feint d’ignorer l’existence de cet accord. Pourtant, les mots tracés sur ce vieux parchemin n’avaient jamais perdu leur pouvoir. Dans l’ombre, une jeune femme aux yeux froids observait. Sandra, la méprisée, l’invisible. Celle qu’on avait reléguée aux marges de la famille, comme si son sang était moins noble. Elle savait ce qu’ils ignoraient : un pacte ne meurt jamais. Il sommeille, attendant son heure. Et cette heure venait de sonner. Lorsque les Anthony franchirent le seuil de la maison Smith, ce ne fut pas en suppliants, mais en créanciers. Leur présence réveilla une vérité que les Smith avaient enfouie : on ne rompt pas impunément une promesse faite aux morts. Et alors que les voix s’élevaient, que les accusations fusaient, Sandra se tenait immobile, un sourire glacé aux lèvres. Car elle, l’oubliée, allait devenir leur seul salut.

Ava St. James has walked down the aisle four times—and buried every “forever” along the way. At seventy, she’s traded vows for vintage champagne and decided love looks best from a distance. Then along comes Marcus du Prée—handsome, grounded, and far too young to be interested. A gardener, he says. Except the roses he tends belong to his estate, and the dirt under his nails hides a fortune he’d rather forget. When Ava’s flamboyant New Orleans clan crashes into Marcus’s refined Pasadena world, sparks fly, secrets bloom, and one improbable romance dares to take root. For the Fifth Vow is a sparkling romantic comedy about late love, Southern pride, and the kind of courage it takes to say “I do” when everyone else says you shouldn’t. Witty, wise, and full of heart, it reminds us that some vows aren’t meant to end—they’re just waiting for the right season to begin.
