Stepsis Vacation

On our third wedding anniversary, I went out of my way to host an anniversary party. But my husband and Alpha, Johnny, took his assistant Amy to the seaside for a vacation instead, leaving me alone at the party as the subject of everyone’s mockery. I called the resort and even thoughtfully booked out the entire area just for the two of them as I calmly faced the crowd. Then, I slipped the mate bond dissolution application in with the paperwork for Johnny to sign. In my previous life, I forced him to stay to save face for both Johnny and the pack. That led to Amy leaving alone and dying in a car accident. Johnny didn't blame me—until I carried his pup that he tied me in a car, telling me that he wanted me to feel the pain Amy went through. When the car exploded, I finally realized that Johnny had hated me all along. Now that I had been reborn, I would make sure he lost everything!

Quentin Quandt—Shane Fuchner's uncle—killed himself. After he died, someone found a drawer stuffed with unsent love letters. Every single one had my name on it. So when life hit rewind and Mom asked if I wanted to marry Shane, my childhood friend, I said no. I picked Quentin. Here's the thing—I got reborn. Last time, I chose Shane. Huge mistake. He was hardly ever home after we got married. And when I started bleeding from a miscarriage, he ditched me because Ceryn Schuck—his first love—texted, [The power's out and I'm scared.] He didn't even hesitate. I died that night. So did the baby. And Shane? He didn't cry. Just whined that my death ruined his vacation plans with her. Then I woke up—right back at the moment Mom asked who I wanted to marry...

On the very day I sold my company shares to raise money for my wife’s medical treatment, my phone flashed with a notification about a trending post. "My husband or my lover, which should I choose?" An anonymous reply shot to the top of the comments. "Why choose? I want both." What followed was a casual, shameless confession. A staged car accident right after the wedding, a fake overseas treatment plan, parents who helped maintain the lie, and millions siphoned off under the excuse of life-saving medical fees. The money was never for treatment. It funded luxury vacations, hotel suites, and a long-term affair. Someone asked if she was afraid her husband would find out. Her answer was chilling. "Why would I be afraid? He thinks he took my first time and swore to take responsibility for me forever. He doesn’t know it was just a repair surgery I did for his sake." The post ended with a vacation photo. A woman in a bikini, smiling under the sun. And on her waist, a tattoo with the letters 'NG.' The same tattoo worn by my wife.

As the right-hand person to the marketing manager, Rossa must deal with a director from a rival company who, ironically, happens to be someone she strongly dislikes. Rosamund Parks was on vacation with some friends on an exotic island when a group of thugs kidnapped her and sold her to a cheap brothel on the outskirts of town, which then sent her to an underground auction. When Francesco (Franco) Tenaglia, a CEO boss, won the auction, he was about to enjoy Rossa's body when an incident thwarted his intentions. Rossa woke up the next day and could still remember the mobster's handsome face, but never in her heart wished to see him again. When the company Rossa works for, faced a tricky situation with a long-established rival company, she was sent to negotiate with them to solve the problem. And when she discovered that the CEO of the rival company was Franco, she had to choose between her freedom and her job. Would she choose herself over her job? Or would she choose the latter and risk Franco's continued dominance?

A dangerous and strong Alpha, waited for his mate to come. He didn't expect his mate to be a mere human with no werewolf blood running through her veins, but Alpha Arther fell in love with her at first sight. Letitia was a daughter of the famous model and an actor. She is also Alpha Arther's mate. Her parents hired an assassin to kill her while she was on vacation in her grandparent's house, but Alpha Arther saved her and allowed her to stay in their territory. Letitia will face many challenges while living with the werewolves, but how will she deal with the fact that she will one day be the Luna of Alpha Arther's pack? Being a Luna of a pack is difficult, especially since she is only human and can only rely on the skills her grandfather taught her when she was a child. Also, the Alpha King wanted her! This could lead to war about the two strong wolves that wanted her! How could Letitia face the challenges living with the werewolves?

If turning 18 is a curse, Artemis Velasquez couldn't ask more. No debut celebration, being forced to have a vacation at her grandmother's, and remove all of her luxuries in life. Leaving her with no choice, she had to cope with simple living until she saw a wishing well where it was believed that any spoken wish would be granted. Accidentally falling into it, she discovers Salamanca where people live with power and magic, and encounters her grandmother's good-looking yet mysterious adoptee, Stalwart Augsburg, through whom she finds out about their family's origin and its tragic past. Learning everything builds her strong resolve, attends the most prestigious magical school, and promises to bring justice to their family. Yet, it is easier said than done. The new-found world is far different and too complicated. Old customs, an awakening war, wicked schemes, and formidable enemies are ahead. Can someone from the modern world rectify the past? Can someone who just accidentally fell into the wishing well make a difference?

We’d been together for seven years, but during that entire time, my fiancée rejected the idea of getting married ninety-nine times, all because of a male intern. The first time, she canceled our vacation at the last minute, saying the intern was stuck on a night shift and afraid of the dark. She got on a flight that very night and rushed back to the hospital. The second time, we were already halfway through the doors of the courthouse to get our marriage registered. But just then, she got word that the intern had collapsed from exhaustion. Without a second thought, she left me standing alone in the snow for the entire day. After that, it became a pattern. Every time we were together, the intern would find some excuse to pull her away. Eventually, I made up my mind to let go. I stopped dreaming about a happy marriage with her. However, just when I announced I was transferring to another city, she broke down, begging me, almost hysterically, not to leave.

Haria was rejected by an Alpha who was destined to be her mate, and after that, a series of bad events happened in her life and she always gets into trouble. What she didn't like the most was her father's decision to take her to the camp of the Blue Blood Pack. She was brought there, not to have a vacation, but to attend training like others who want to become a soldier of their pack. At first, she didn't get along well with the first two guys she met at the camp, Marky Parks, the only son of the general, and Jacob Cabarse, one of the best trainee to be a soldier of their pack. But as time went on, she gradually felt comfortable with Jacob. Her older brother, Jomer, noticed that something was going on between her and Jacob. He immediately made ways to stop their relationship as he didn't want her to end up with him. Will they be able to fight for their love, when the one who was against it was her family? Can Jacob bear the consequences of loving a high-profile female alpha, despite him being just a beta?

A wedding she never wanted. A man she never met. A love she never saw coming. When carefree heiress Elizabeth Knight is called back home from her lavish vacation, the last thing she expects is a forced marriage to Aaron Vanderbilt, the cold billionaire heir of her family’s greatest rival. The marriage is meant to save her father’s company from bankruptcy and end the feud between the two families. Instead, it throws her into a web of dangerous family secrets and betrayal. Her new husband, Aaron, makes it clear that the marriage is for business and not real, and he doesn't want to be around her except when necessary. But when her first love returns to town, she's torn between returning to the first man she had ever loved or exploring the growing spark between her and her arranged husband. Will she fall for the stranger she married? Or return to the love she lost? What happens when she finds out shocking family secrets surrounding her birth and a deadly plot that could ruin her life?

The night of my first shift at eighteen, my two older brothers brought home a twelve-year-old orphaned Omega. My alpha brother seized the rare healing herb I'd spent all my savings on—herbs meant to ease my first transformation—and gave them to her instead. "You're strong enough," he growled. "You don't need such precious herbs." My beta brother snarled with fury, pointing toward the door. "Get out! Don't come back!" I said nothing more, just grabbed my packed bag and left. They assumed I was merely throwing a tantrum, that I'd return in a few days. My brothers, finally free of my presence, took the orphan girl on an international vacation to the Caribbean islands I'd always dreamed of visiting. Many days later, when they returned to the pack, they were shocked to discover I'd accepted an offer from the neighboring pack's Head Healer. The position required fifteen years of isolated herbal research. I could never return home. That night, they fell apart.
