Tom Lake Summary

Cresci fora do país. Com medo de eu arrumar um genro estrangeiro, a minha mãe resolveu me arranjar um noivo bonito e talentoso em São Paulo, e me chamou de volta para o noivado. Quando fui à Boutique de Luxo escolher meu vestido de noivado, eu me encantei por um vestido longo tom creme, tomara que caia. Quando me preparei para experimentá-lo, uma mulher olhou de soslaio para o vestido em minhas mãos e disse à atendente: — Esse modelo é bem diferente, deixa eu experimentar. A atendente, com ação brusca, arrancou o vestido das minhas mãos. Eu, indignada, disse: — Cada coisa tem sua ordem! Eu vi esse vestido primeiro, vocês ainda têm noção de justiça? Mas ela me olhou com desprezo e respondeu: — Esse vestido custa 188 mil. Você, uma pobretona, consegue pagar isso? — Eu sou irmã de consideração de Eduardo Monteiro, presidente do Grupo Monteiro. Em São Paulo, quem decide o que é “justo” é só a Família Monteiro! Que coincidência! Eduardo Monteiro é meu noivo. Imediatamente liguei para Eduardo: — Sua irmã de consideração acabou de roubar meu vestido de noivado. Como você vai resolver isso?

Al renacer en esta segunda vida, tomé una decisión: mantendría la máxima distancia posible de Santiago Fernández. Cuando lo vi llegar como director a mi empresa, renuncié esa misma tarde. Cuando compró un apartamento en mi edificio, me mudé al otro extremo de la ciudad. Y cuando anunció que dirigiría el imperio familiar desde aquí, solicité mi traslado internacional. En mi vida anterior, lo había obligado a casarse conmigo usando mi embarazo como chantaje. Pero justo el día de la boda, su primer amor regresó. Al vernos juntos en el altar, corrió hacia la terraza y saltó al vacío. Santiago fingió que nada había pasado y se casó conmigo, sonriendo. El día de nuestro aniversario de bodas, nos llevó a mi hija y a mí a hacer puénting. Pero él cortó las cuerdas, y mi hija y yo caímos, muriendo destrozadas. Después de nuestra muerte, se inclinó sobre nuestros cuerpos y rio con crueldad: —¡Si no fuera por ti, Valentina no se habría suicidado! ¡Ahora ve y págale por tu culpa! Cuando volví a abrir los ojos, había regresado a esa noche en que usé mi embarazo para obligarlo a casarse.

Mateus Costa, o homem mais rico de Rio dos Cedros, passou três anos em coma. Durante todo esse tempo, Emilly Araújo, como sua esposa, cuidou dele com dedicação. No entanto, quando Mateus finalmente despertou, Emilly encontrou em seu celular uma mensagem comprometedora que sugeria traição: sua "deusa" havia retornado ao país. Seus amigos, que sempre a desprezaram, riam entre si: — O cisne branco voltou. Já está na hora de deixar o patinho feio para trás. Foi nesse momento que Emilly percebeu que Mateus nunca a havia amado. Ela não passava de uma piada patética. Algum tempo depois, tarde da noite, o poderoso Presidente Mateus recebeu os papéis do divórcio. Motivo: incapacidade do marido. Furioso, ele foi atrás dela, apenas para encontrar sua ex-esposa, antes um "patinho feio", trajando um elegante vestido longo, irradiando uma beleza serena sob as luzes brilhantes. A mulher que ele desprezara havia se transformado em uma renomada especialista médica. Ao vê-lo se aproximar, a Sra. Costa sorriu de leve e, em um tom brincalhão, disse: — Presidente Mateus, veio marcar uma consulta com um urologista?

"You need me." He told me. My eyes narrowed slightly at the way he was so sure. "I don't," I said. He arched a brow. "Jenny, you need me as much as I need you. I just want to help you and in return, you will be my wife for a year till I get my potential bride and by doing that, I will be able to get my mother off my neck." He said. I knew what he said was true and that I needed him. "Okay, for just a year?" "Yes, just a year." He replied. * * * * She needed him. He wanted her. Jenny Darlington knew she only had herself to blame when Jason Thorne, her unrelenting neighbor, made that request. She had accepted his help to claim custody of her kid and in return, she will be his wife for twelve months. She soon realized that Jason was not all the jovial and funny guy he showed. He was seductive and alluring. He was the guilty pleasure of ladies who wanted to be beneath him, writhing and moaning in pleasure. He hummed with whispers of temptation - the temptation to sin and surrender, to let him make you his. He was capable of awakening every dead need and desire. But he was not capable of one thing. That thing has been the secret he carried in his heart for years. Jenny thought she had accepted a minor thing, only for her to find out that what she had accepted was not ordinary. She accepted Sin In Tom Ford Suit. What happens when she resumes her new job and she figures out that her new boss was her... Contract husband?

My boyfriend, Tom, promised a grand mating ceremony for my twentieth birthday. But at my banquet, he publicly requested a mate link with my stepsister, Lily. While the whole pack roared and cheered, I just stood there like a fool. The betrayal hit hard. Before I could even breathe, Sam—the Obsidian Pack's Alpha heir—said he'd secretly loved me all along and asked to claim me. I said yes. For five years, he spoiled me. Memorized my favorite runs, my wolf's quirks. Then I overheard him with his Beta: "Sam, Lily's Luna of White Rose Pack now, just like she wanted. You still gonna fake it with Any?" "I can't have Lily. Doesn't even matter who my mate is anymore. As long as I'm with Any, Lily's safe and happy." Later that night, I found his safe in the study. Inside? Every single thing she ever gave him. Handmade wolf fang pendants. Letters sealed with her paw print. His prized chest armor, every single scale etched with her name: [Lily, my dearest love. I'd shred through every thorn for your smile.] [Lily, rip out my wolf heart if you needed it. ] [Lily! Hell, I'd steal the whole damn world if you asked.] Five years. Five years of lies, shattered in seconds. I filed my request to leave the pack. In two days, I'd be out of Sam's life for good.

“You left me! You made your choice and it wasn't me.” I spit the accusation at him, trying to hide the devastation in my tone. “Your loss. Now she's ours!

Tomé una bala por mi novio, Leo. Cuando desperté, decidí jugar un pequeño juego. Le dije que tenía amnesia. Quería ver qué haría. En lugar de preocuparse, vi un brillo de emoción en sus ojos. Acto seguido, introdujo a su primo, Dante, el líder de la familia. —Él es tu prometido, Dante. Llevan dos años comprometidos. Dante, el hombre que supuestamente me odiaba, ahora me miraba como si fuera su razón de vivir. —Sí —dijo—. Soy tu prometido. Bien. Seguiría el juego. Necesitaba saber qué tramaba Leo. Esa noche lo vi por las grabaciones de seguridad en la mansión de Dante. Leo, en la cama con otra mujer, la besaba como si se estuviera muriendo de hambre. Se movía dentro de ella. Y hablaba mal de mí. —Que mi primo cuide a Bella un tiempo. Es tan pesada. Tú eres lo que realmente necesito, Scarlett. Mi corazón se hizo pedazos. Me había pasado a otro hombre. Solo para poder follar con libertad. Bien. Si era un juego, dos podían jugar. Conseguiría un nuevo prometido. Me puse el vestido de novia. Besé a Dante... un beso profundo, devorador, justo delante de Leo. Y entonces, por fin, él estalló. Enloqueció. Me dijo que se había equivocado y me suplicó que volviera con él.
