He laid me on the sheets, climbed over me, caged me with his arms. "Last chance to run," he said, voice low. "I need the money," I whispered, feeling so tiny in his arms."You're soaking," he muttered. "Virgin or not, your pussy wants this. "I moaned, looking away, couldn’t help it, "Eyes on me, sweetheart," he pushed his tip in slowly. "Fuck," he groaned. "So tight." He fucked me like he was claiming something. "Come for me," he whispered in my ears, moving faster. "Damien," I cried out his name as I came. "That's it," he growled. After a long minute he pulled out slowly. "One night," he said again, almost like a reminder... Weeks later, I walked through the quiet hall of my school. A massive portrait stared back at me, Damien Blackwood the Principal Benefactor and Owner of Columbia University. Same man who’d just taken my virginity for money. My stomach dropped. "Oh fuck... what have I done?"

Zoé, 29 ans, est une illustratrice un peu maladroite mais brillante, qui noie ses insomnies dans des litres de café, des podcasts sur l’amour toxique… et les sextoys qu’elle teste pour son blog anonyme. Elle pense avoir tout compris de l'amour jusqu'à ce qu’elle tombe (littéralement) dans les bras de Jules, un photographe ténébreux qui lui donne envie d’effacer toutes ses règles. Mais il y a Raphaël, son meilleur ami depuis dix ans, confident de toutes ses crises existentielles, qui l’aime en silence… sauf que maintenant, il ne se tait plus. Alors que Jules l’entraîne dans un tourbillon de passion charnelle, entre jeux interdits et confessions à demi-nus, Raphaël, lui, lui offre une tendresse brûlante, pleine de regards qui savent déjà tout d’elle. Zoé, tiraillée entre la brûlure du désir et la douceur du cœur, se perd dans un triangle aussi torride que cruel. Entre scènes sulfureuses, maladresses hilarantes (et orgasmes imprévus), Zoé va devoir faire un choix. Mais l’amour n’a rien d’un scénario bien rangé. Et parfois, aimer, c’est aussi faire mal à soi, ou à l’autre. Un roman où on rit, on pleure, on soupire… et on fond.

When Natalie discovered that she was pregnant, she believed it was her last hope—that the child would soften Cristian’s heart. She was wrong.
