DARK ROMANCE ! Cheating, very twisted, obsessive ML, a lot of trauma... Lizzy's lips tilted up into a self deprecating smile. The divorce papers were filled, his part already darkened by his informations and his signature long dry on the paper. Her own was still fresh. Only twelve hours old. "How long has it been waiting ?" She dared to ask. There was a lot she wouldn't, but this, this she felt like she should know. How long had he been planning on divorcing her ? --- Elizabeth Clark loved her husband. She had found peace in their arranged marriage and as dysfunctional as it seemed, she had cherished her new home with all she had. Dante Giovanni had merely been biding his time, bearing through this hell of a marriage by counting down the seconds until he could get out of it. But when his wife sets him free, he finds out freedom has a bitter taste and that he might have passed by the love of his life. And Lizzy discovers she is more than just a man's daughter or wife, that she deserves more than what she had been given until then and is ready to fight for it.

I thought I knew the cost of ambition. I built my husband's company from the ground up, coding through exhaustion and pregnancy while he charmed investors and claimed the spotlight. I told myself we were a team. Until I lose my baby, alone, and see him laughing on a rooftop party with another woman. That night, I log back into the system I designed and make a small adjustment. Not enough to destroy it. Just enough to make it tremble. _______________________________________ Levi Thorne, the billionaire CEO preparing to merge with Eli's company, recognises the precision immediately. And when he reaches out to the mysterious "Ghost" behind the architecture, he finds something far more dangerous than sabotage: a woman who has been underestimated for far too long. As corporate tension escalates and betrayal turns public, Mira must choose between the safety of invisibility and the risk of being seen by a man who understands exactly what she's capable of. Because the most powerful revenge isn't destruction. It's a revelation.

She came home early. She shouldn't have. Noa Reevse is a therapist. She spends her days sitting across from people in the worst moments of their lives, holding their pain with both hands, and sending them home better. She is very good at it. She is also, it turns out, very good at not looking too closely at her own. Until the afternoon, she opens a door she was never supposed to open. Fifteen seconds. That's all she records. That's all she needs. And then, a week later, she puts on a burgundy dress, walks into her husband's televised political forum, and raises her hand. She has the video. She never has to play it. His silence does the work for her. "Hurricane Season" is about what happens after the worst imaginable betrayal, after the divorce papers are filed, after the woman who taught everyone else how to survive the unsurvivable has to figure out how to do it herself. For readers who need their protagonist to be the storm.
