Après le décès du frère aîné de Leo Carter, sa mère a proposé qu'il épouse Ariel Sullivan, la femme enceinte de son défunt frère. Leo a refusé. « Fawn est ma vie », a-t-il dit froidement. « Je préfère renoncer à hériter de la position de mon frère en tant que parrain plutôt que de trahir ma femme. » J'ai été profondément touchée par sa dévotion. Jusqu'au moment où j'ai accidentellement entendu une conversation entre Leo et sa mère. « L'enfant qu'Ariel porte dans son ventre est clairement le tien », a déclaré sa mère d'un ton sec. « Alors pourquoi refuses-tu de l'épouser ? » Leo a expiré une bouffée de fumée. Son regard s'est perdu au loin, indéchiffrable. « J'ai promis à Ariel que je laisserais un héritier à mon frère », a-t-il dit calmement. « Mais ça reste entre nous. Si Fawn l'apprend un jour, je suis mort. » Le visage de sa mère s'est assombri. « Et alors si elle l'apprend ? Elle ne peut même pas avoir d'enfants elle-même. Vas-tu laisser s'éteindre la lignée familiale à cause d'elle ? » Leo l'a interrompue, sa voix soudainement froide et dangereuse. « Si elle l'apprend, elle me quittera. Et je ne survivrai pas à sa perte. Si tu veux un petit-fils, alors tais-toi. » Je me suis éloignée en titubant, hébétée, et le sang dans mes veines s'est lentement glacé. Leo me comprenait mieux que personne. Il savait que dans mon monde, l'amour ne pouvait tolérer une trahison. Alors, au moment où il m'a trahie, j'ai pris ma décision. J'allais partir.

Clara n'est pas venue au lac par hasard. Elle fuit. À trente ans, elle a tout perdu : son père trop tôt, sa mère hier, et jusqu'à sa capacité d'aimer, assassinée par un homme qui l'a trahie. Photographe de l'éphémère, elle ne croit plus qu'aux images figées, à la beauté morte, à la solitude choisie. Le chalet de sa mère, au bord du lac de Noirceval, doit être sa dernière étape avant l'effacement. Mais le lac a d'autres plans. Car sous ses eaux noires, depuis cent vingt-six ans, un homme attend. Gabriel. Noyé la veille de ses noces en 1898, condamné par une malédiction ancienne à errer entre deux mondes, visible seulement de ceux qui portent en eux une blessure assez profonde pour voir l'invisible. Chaque pleine lune, il émerge et marche sur l'eau, cherchant désespérément un regard qui le reconnaisse. Depuis cent vingt-six ans, personne ne l'a vu. Personne ne lui a parlé. Personne ne lui a souri. Jusqu'à Clara. La première nuit où elle le voit, Clara croit devenir folle. Un homme sur l'eau ? Des vêtements d'un autre siècle ? Elle veut fuir, mais ses jambes refusent. Lui s'approche, et quand il parle, sa voix est celle d'un homme qui a désappris l'usage des mots. "Tu me vois ?" demande-t-il. "Je te vois", répond-elle. Et ce simple aveu change tout. Ils parlent jusqu'à l'aube. Il raconte 1898, Élodie, la barque, la noyade, la malédiction. Elle raconte Paris, les reportages, la trahison de Simon, la mort de sa mère. Deux solitudes qui se rencontrent à la frontière du réel. Quand le soleil se lève, il doit plonger. Mais il reviendra. La prochaine pleine lune. Et l'autre après. Et l'autre encore.

My mother was tied up in an abandoned warehouse rigged with explosives by a rival gang. The kidnappers sent a video, and the countdown showed only 30 minutes remaining. I called Vincent Porter, my fiance and a mafia Don, for help. He was the uncontested king of this district. If he appeared, no one would dare touch her. Vincent answered and said he would bring his men right away. However, halfway there, he suddenly claimed there was an emergency and ordered the convoy to turn around. Desperate, I drove toward the warehouse myself, watching the seconds tick down on the video as I called Vincent again and again. On the 99th call, Vincent finally picked up. Soft violin music played in the background. His voice was ice-cold. "Alice, don't use such childish stunts to get attention." "My mom is about to die…" "Then let her." The call ended. As the countdown hit zero, the explosion went off. Seconds later, Vincent's childhood sweetheart, Jenny Thorne, posted on Instagram. The photo showed the same hands that usually held guns now carefully trimming her nails. [Woke up from a nightmare. So grateful he's here. A Don's protection really does make you feel safe.] It turned out this was his so-called emergency. He had gone to comfort a woman frightened by a bad dream. Shattered beyond repair, I ended everything with a carefully staged death. Later, when I returned in glory as a queen, he stood before me, completely broken. He had been stripped of everything. He begged, "Alice, please don't leave me."

"Good morning, Greg. What would you like for breakfast?" "What? Did you just call me Greg? Are we mates? What gives you the right to call me that? Just because you're my wife? Listen, don't you ever call me Greg." "But... we're... married..." "So what? I only married you because of my grandmother. And let's face it, we're not on the same level, whether it's age, class, or status. You're just an eighteen-year-old country girl." "I'm 26, and you're only 18. An eight-year age gap isn't a joke. Just because we're married doesn't mean you can call me by my name. Didn't your parents teach you to respect your elders?" "How should I address you then?" "Just call me sir. I don't ever want to hear 'Greg' from your mouth again," I said sternly "The Billionaire's Country Girl Bride" is an engaging novel about the marriage between Greg, a rich businessman, and Sophie, a young country girl. Greg insists on being called "sir" by Sophie due to their age gap, and sets strict rules that keep them apart. As Greg brings other women home and ignores Sophie's feelings, she finds support in her university roommate, Diana. The story follows Sophie's journey as she learns to stand up for herself and find her own strength. With Diana's help, Sophie discovers the power of love and resilience.

On Benedict Bradford’s birthday, he posted a link on social media with a taunting offer: [$1.99 buys you a prank—target: Sansa Stormcloud.] So when I arrived at his party, the guests drenched me in water, hurled glasses, smashed cake in my face, and shoved me down the stairs. Benedict sneered as he stood over me, arm slung around Lina Kipling. “You think you’re fit to marry into the Bradfords? Pathetic. “You’re not even in Lina’s league. You’re worth nothing more than a couple of dollars!” I picked myself up, dusted off my dress, and handed him an invitation. “You know, Benedict, the Bradfords have another heir. “And shortly afterwards, you’ll address me respectfully as your sister-in-law.”
