Tom Lake Discussion Questions

When Nadia Marlowe attends the annual writers’ conference in California, all she has in mind is a break from the regular activities back home, an autograph from her favourite author, and the desire to connect with writers from around the world. That is, until the air conditioner in her hotel room starts spitting hot air, and a technician is sent in to fix it. Suddenly, the conference no longer matters. The goals she arrived with disappear into thin air, replaced by an undeniable awareness of the extremely handsome technician standing across from her. One thing leads to another, and a simple repair session turns into an intense encounter that leaves Nadia shaken to her core. Disgusted with herself for crossing a line she never thought she would—married, with children—Nadia leaves California after the conference determined to bury the experience and pretend it never happened. But fate has a sense of humour, and Nadia Marlowe becomes its favourite recipient. Her husband’s longtime friend arrives for a business discussion, and to her horror, that friend turns out to be Fabian, the same technician she had mouth watering sex with back in California. Lost for words, Nadia struggles to survive his stay in her home. But fate isn’t finished yet. Fabian’s visit stretches longer than planned. To make matters worse, he is trapped in an on-and-off relationship, and also has a daughter. He knows the damage he’s causing. He knows that after everything Nadia’s husband has done for him, betraying him this way is unforgivable. Yet the pull toward Nadia is something he cannot control. What began as a single reckless moment spirals into a dangerous affair, one filled with desire, guilt, and secrets, threatening to destroy marriages, friendships, and the perfect life Nadia has built.

Pour sauver les trois hommes les plus importants de ma vie, j'ai conclu un pacte avec la Déesse Lune. Ma vie contre la leur. Si je parvenais à faire en sorte que l'un d'eux m'aime sincèrement dans les cinq ans, je pourrais survivre. Mais au dernier jour du compte à rebours, tous les trois éprouvaient encore de l'aversion envers moi. Selon les règles, j'avais échoué. Ma vie allait être effacée. « Déesse Lune, pourrais-je envoyer un dernier message ? Une ultime tentative ? » Peut-être par pitié, elle m'a accordé cette chance finale. Ce message était mon dernier espoir. J'ai appuyé sur le bouton vocal dans notre groupe de discussion, luttant pour garder ma voix stable. « Pourriez-vous m'aimer ne serait-ce qu'un peu ? Je vais vraiment mourir. » Après un instant de silence, leurs rires impitoyables ont retenti. « Tu ferais n'importe quoi pour rivaliser avec Lydia et attirer l'attention, c'est ça ? » « Arrête tes mensonges. Ça ne fait que nous dégoûter davantage. » « Si tu as si envie de mourir, alors vas-y, fais-le. » Mission échouée. Je leur ai donné exactement ce qu'ils voulaient. Mais au moment où j'allais mourir, ils ont tous paniqué.

Desde que me volví tontito, mi madrastra siempre me cuidó personalmente. No solo me daba masajes y me llevaba a hacer ejercicio, sino que tampoco rechazaba mis caricias. Mi padrastro, seguro de que era un idiota, nunca se molestaba en ocultar sus actos íntimos con mi madrastra delante de mí. Pero lo que ellos no sabían era que yo ya había vuelto a la normalidad. Mientras mi madrastra tenía una videollamada con mi padrastro y se consolaba con su juguete frente a la cámara, yo, en silencio, tomé mi hombría y la hundí en su cuerpo. Y mi padrastro no tenía ni idea.

Règle numéro un: on ne sort pas avec l'ex d'une amie. Mais est-ce que cette règle est appliquée par tout le monde? Est-ce que tout le monde tient à ce que cette règle soit respectée? Et est-ce que cette règle s'étend aussi aux crush? Si la réponse à ces questions est oui alors je suis mal.

In the fifth year of my mating to Alpha Tom, his childhood sweetheart, Becky Bell, was splashed across every tabloid in the territory. Pregnant. Unmated. And accused of shattering another couple’s bond. The rumors hit like a rogue’s ambush. But it was his reaction that truly gutted me. “Becky’s father once saved me, she has no pack, no family left. Everything she’s accomplished… she clawed her way to it. Alone.” My fingers clenched tighter around the pregnancy test tucked away in my purse. “And the only way to protect her now,” he continued, not even looking me in the eye, “is for me to marry her. To claim the pup as mine.” “And what about me?” I asked, barely more than a whisper. My voice cracked. The Sunfire Pack and the Golden Fang Pack—my pack—had been allies for over a century. “How do I explain this sudScott rejection to my parents? To my pack? To the elders? They know we're mate bond.” Alpha Tom inhaled sharply. “Just tell them it was always a business arrangement. That there was no real love between us.” My wolf bared her teeth at that. He had the audacity to look away. “Once the media frenzy dies down, I’ll come for you. I’ll bring you back to Sunfire Pack and give you the grand wedding you deserve.” I stared at him. This Alpha—was seriously telling me he was going to marry another she-wolf, claim her pup, let me get torn apart by pack gossip and speculation, and then what? he's offering me his marriage like it’s some kind of charity? My fingers twitched, aching to throw the pregnancy test at him. But I didn’t. I laughed. For three years, I had been the one he discarded—over and over. And now, even my marriage was to be sacrificed for her sake. It hit me then, sharp and cold: It's time for me to leave him
