This is a work in progress, currently available only on my Patreon. The chapters shared here are just teasers. https://www.patreon.com/c/JonaLeighBooks This story follows a man named West Steinberg, who betrays his wife, Bianca, with a woman named Faith. But this isn't a moment of weakness or regret. His betrayal runs deep, absolute, and intentional. There's no remorse, no hesitation, no turning back. It's a choice he fully commits to and believes in. At its core, this is a story about obsession, betrayal, and rage, and where those emotions can lead. In the end, it results in the murder of one of the women. The story is told entirely from West's perspective, capturing how he lived through those moments. There is no HEA. In fact, you'll know the ending from the very beginning. But there will be a twist. Please consider yourself warned. 😊

The stability wasn't real. And starting over with two kids in her mother's one-bedroom apartment is a lot harder than leaving was. As Emi rebuilds from nothing, turning a quiet passion for ikebana into something more, she begins to understand that just like the flowers, she needs space, support, and patience to come into her own. Her husband thinks she'll come back because there's no way she can do it all alone. But, he's wrong, about more than one thing.

The name "Paldoma" struck fear into the hearts of everyone. In the city of San Cordova, the Paldoma conglomerate HQ loomed over the bustling skyline. Onlookers would gaze up at the towering glass structure, the Paldoma symbol shimmering with status and power. At face value? Alfonso Paldoma. The handsome face and charismatic talker. He handled appearances and faced the press. He presented the carefully curated image of Paldoma. But the one behind the powerful backbone of the Paldoma Group was, Giselle Paldoma. A devoted wife. The true leader, reigning over the Paldoma Group next to her husband. Alfonso presented clean to the world while she handled all the dirty work-the not-so-legal side of keeping their company afloat. Giselle saw Alfonso as her ride or die. She swore to him the day they married that they were bound together forever......until the end of time and even after death. Others even swooned knowing that Alfonso, originally born Alfonso Venturi, took Giselle's last name-Paldoma. Their love story crafted them into the ultimate power couple... until Alfonso betrayed Giselle in what could be considered the worst betrayal of the century. Now Giselle has become the definition of a woman scorned. She craves retribution for all she has lost, and a man by the name of Justinian Venturi, the estranged brother of Alfonso is far too eager to bring a smile back to her face. warnings betrayal mentions of violence power struggle infidelity (emotional and physical) revenge strong FMC NEW H groveling and regretful Old H.

Clara My heart has belonged to Spencer Fisher since that day in high school, when he winked at me during Mrs. Doyle's chemistry class. For twelve years we've been together through the good, the bad, and everything in between. For twelve years I've stood by him and supported him and watched him as he realized every single one of his dreams. But when Spencer's father is diagnosed with terminal lung cancer and he starts pulling away right when I need him most, we might have finally found the one thing that will tear us apart. Spencer I thought I had it made. But now I'm feeling it all slip away as the pressures of work and bills and hard decisions mount. And above all else, I have to watch my old man slowly wither away. I'm not used to feeling helpless, and now all I can do is watch the man who has always been larger than life to me die. I know Clara's doing her best to support me, but lately it feels like all I do is let her down. When my colleague introduces me to his sister Laney, it feels harmless at first. Laney listens without making demands. She's sympathetic. She reminds me to take care of myself. If she flirts occasionally and I find myself enjoying it? Well, that's probably harmless too. It's not like I'd ever act on anything. I'd never betray Clara. But the road to hell is paved with bad decisions, and by the time I realize what a fool I'm being, I might be too late to stop myself from losing the woman I love.

The girl who trailed after them in summer with scraped knees, bookish eyes, and a heart too soft for the kind of world he came from.
