Temptation Under The Sun

Nia, after losing the man she loved—Ares—to a sacrifice she didn’t deserve, Nia’s life ended in guilt and heartbreak. But death isn’t her escape. Instead, the Moon Goddess Selene offers her a deal: live again in the bodies of women who met tragic ends, rewrite their stories, and fill a glowing necklace with enough energy to bring Ares’s soul back. There’s just one catch: Ares’s soul, it’s shattered, scattered across the worlds she’ll enter, hidden in the men who make her heart race and her pulse pound. From forbidden kisses with a nobleman who knows too much, to heated nights in a warrior’s tent, and the tender touch of an artist who paints her like he’s worshiping her body, every life brings her closer to completing her mission—and losing herself to desire. But as the necklace glows brighter, the truth becomes harder to ignore: these men aren’t just strangers. They’re pieces of Ares, tempting her to fall in love all over again. Will Nia bring back the man she lost, or will the fragments of him in every lover leave her longing for more than one lifetime can handle?

Extract The thought of Louis stalking me send cold shivers down my spine. Cold sweats formed on my forehead and I could feel my make-up washing off by my sweats. " Who are you?" Austin roared, but the wicked smile on Louis's face never left my mind. Why was he smiling that way? I couldn't help but wonder with my body trembling. " Louis Rusev" Louis answered and the audience gasped. At this moment, the priest had disappeared and everyone was holding their breath. " The alpha of lake pack?" Austin asked with squinted eyes to be sure the person standing before him wasn't an imposter. I didn't tell Austin the identity of my ex-mate, I only told him what happened between us. " Bravo, you know me well" Louis applauded and approached us on the stage. " What do you want?" Austin asked and I felt his grip tightened around my wrist in a protective manner. " I want my mate back" Louis answered calmly with a domineering voice. My heart dropped to my stomach at his response and I felt tears brimming in my eyes. Didn't he reject me? Didn't he send me away? why did he appear suddenly? In a world where people go over the moon when they find their mate, Nora's life crumbled after finding hers. Happy that her long-time crush, Alpha Louis Rusev was now her mate, she offered herself to him willingly not knowing Fate was Tempting her.

Stefan Salvatore, the youngest grandson of the largest and most well-known conglomerate—Divina Salvatore of the Salvatore Group of Companies—was the only survivor of the family's car accident ten years ago. Divina devotes her entire attention to his grandson, Stefan, to ensure that he is capable of running the company and carrying on Salvatore's bloodline. Stefan, on the other hand, is opposed to the idea of marriage and prefers to live his life as a bachelor. However, an unexpected turn of events occurred when he awoke in his bed completely naked and with a girl on his arms, which was witnessed by her grandmother. With that, his single life came to an end, and he was forced to marry that girl.

If Clarice Morgan's past isn't haunting her, she probably wouldn't be pleading with Tristan Penn to stay with her. Her biggest fear is losing someone she cares about. She's already lost one forever, leaving behind a mountain of memories. So, when she meets and falls in love with Tristan, she wants him to stay with her because he gives her the ability to see into the future. Unfortunately, Clarice's wishes do not always match her current circumstances. In the middle of the time, she meets Joel Archer's older brother, Joshua Rich Archer, the Billionaire who has everything in his hands. He shows up with a confession he has kept to himself for years; he admits to Clarice, much to her surprise, that he likes her and would like to propose marriage to her. It's an offer she can't refuse; she must accept it even though she doesn't love Joshua, which means she must leave Tristan.

The Moon Goddess made a mistake. At least, that’s what Lycan king Asher tells himself the moment he lays eyes on her—his mate. Dirty. Chained. Barely a wolf. A girl with haunted green eyes and a silence that screams louder than any cry. He's king of the moon realm, part Lycan, part vampire, forged from power and fury. She? She’s a broken, powerless, damaged, anomaly with a scent that tempts his darkness and a bloodline that shouldn’t exist. To him, she’s not a blessing. She’s a threat. A flaw. A test he never asked for. But fate doesn’t care. Dragged into his world of cruel politics, ancient wars, and monsters dressed as royals, she’s meant to stand beside him as Queen. Yet all she can do is survive—and somehow, still defy him with every breath. His Lycan wants to protect her. His vampire wants to devour her. He wants to reject her. And somewhere between blood and betrayal, hate and heat, they start to burn. This isn't a love story. This is a war between fated souls that tries to resist the pull—where dominance tangles with desire, and salvation might just come in the form of a girl who was never meant to survive.
