Paris, the city of love-yet for me, love has never come easily. My name is Sophie Marchand. I never imagined my path would lead me here-working side by side with Nicholas Deveraux, the powerful CEO of Vinci Group. All my life, I fought to rise above the loneliness of my orphaned childhood. I studied harder than anyone else, worked tirelessly, and built a career with one dream in my heart: to someday have a stable family of my own, a life where I was never alone. I never thought my beauty would open doors faster than my lawyer degree. With my professionalism and my looks, opportunities often came my way. That's how I found myself here-Nicholas's personal assistant. At first, he was my boss. Handsome. Poweful. Charismatic. I told myself I would keep things professional, that I would never blur the line between work and personal life. But the more time we spent together, the more his gorgeous blue eyes lingered on me, the more his charm wrapped around me, the weaker my resolve became. Finally, when Nicholas offered me a secret relationship-temporary, exclusive-I should have said no. I knew it could end in heartbreak. I knew there was someone else - his former girlfriend from a wealthy family, the woman his world expects him to marry - the woman he promised to wait for her to come back. And yet... I couldn't resist him. The temptation... Now, every stolen glance, every hidden touch, every whispered promise ties me closer to a man who may never truly be mine. When that woman returns, will he cast me aside? To him, am I only a lover in the shadows? I've survived being alone before, but this time... will I have the strength to protect my heart? Because the ache of belonging to someone... is sometimes stronger than the will to let go.

She never planned to fall in love with the man she was pretending to belong to. Richard saw something familiar in her smile, something comforting in her presence-without knowing that the woman in his arms was carrying a secret that could change everything. Caught between truth and feelings neither of them asked for, they must learn that love doesn't always begin perfectly... but it can still be real. #1 deceit 27/07/2018 #2 doppleganger 27/07/2018 #4 fate 27/07/2018 #1 tears 12/05/2022, 18/05/2022
