Nothing hurts more than discovering the man you're about to marry has been lying to your face for months-hours before you walk down the aisle. One minute, I'm laughing with my bridesmaids, trying on the white dress that cost more than my first car, dreaming about forever. The next minute, my phone lights up with screenshots I was never meant to see. Naked. Moaning someone else's name. The same man who whispered, "You're my everything" just last night. He swears it was a mistake. He drops to his knees, tears in his eyes, begging me to believe him. But how do you forgive a betrayal that shatters your entire future in one brutal second? I'm supposed to be the blushing bride. Instead, I'm the girl holding proof that the love of my life sold our forever for a few nights of pleasure. And the worst part? He's not the only one keeping secrets. My best friend knows more than she's letting on. My family is hiding something darker. And the mysterious groomsman who's been watching me all week... he looks at me like he already knows exactly how this story ends. They think I'll still say, "I do." They have no idea I'm about to burn this wedding to the ground. But what if the biggest lie... isn't his?

Eve: I walked in on a scene no woman (no one?) should ever have to walk in on after being away from my happy home at a work conference. My husband just blew our entire marriage out the window. Where do I go from here? Adam: My neighbor called me drunk while I was away for work, and confessed to witnessing the most shocking scene in her home. Now I have a divorce to execute and no other plans in mind. But what about that neighbor?

Gabriella showed up for him when it mattered most, believing she knew exactly where her life was going, until everything unraveled in a single moment she couldn't unsee. Walking away wasn't something she had planned, but it became the only choice she could live with. With nowhere else to turn, she leaves behind everything familiar and starts over in a quiet town that doesn't quite feel like home, trying to hold on to the part of herself that still feels like her. She tells herself it was the right decision, that some things can't be undone and are better left behind. But distance doesn't always bring clarity, and no matter how far she goes, the past has a way of following. Because some choices don't stay in the past, and some stories don't end just because you walk away. Updates weekly ✦

I was never a woman who believed in promises. They always felt like wishes, soft things people made when they didn't know how else to hold on. Judas Mercer made them anyway. And somehow, he kept every single one. He waited for me when the world didn't. Built a life while I was still learning how to belong to one. Loved me in a way that I could finally trust. What I didn't realize was how much of our life already existed beyond me. How some bonds didn't begin with us but were already settled and familiar. She was a presence that had always been there. The woman from our past and our present woven into the spaces I thought were ours alone, standing there with us all along. Because Judas kept his promises. He just kept his secrets too. ~S~S~R~A~Y~N~E 🦋Perceived cheating 🦋Possessive MMC 🦋Dark romance themes 🦋high spice content

Blake Devereaux thought she was done with Jack Whitaker. Done with the history, the expectations, the version of herself that existed when he was still part of her life. She was wrong. Now living in the same city, pulled together by mutual friends and a wedding they can't avoid, Blake and Jack are forced back into each other's world. What starts as polite distance quickly turns into something sharper, old wounds resurfacing, old habits returning, and a connection neither of them fully understands anymore. But Jack isn't the boy she grew up with. He's built himself into something else-something controlled, calculated, and dangerously good at pretending. And Blake? She's the only one who refuses to believe it.

"Let me take a look at the bullet wound." "No tesoro. I can do this myself," Vittore grumbled and I gave him incredulous look. "Don't start that bullshit with me Vittore. Remove your arm and let me help you or..." I trailed off, not able to say more. I was still in shock but I could do this. "Just... just let me help." "No." I glared at Vittore. "Why are you being so damn egotistic?! Let me help you! Do you know what it was like to find you like... and to..." I couldn't even get all the words out. "Let me help you. Please." Begging wasn't something I'd ever do but I just needed him to let me help him. "No-" "Why?!" I suddenly exploded. "Why won't you just let me help you?!" "Because I don't know how to handle it ok?!" Vittore suddenly exploded, his dark eyes glaring at me. "I don't know how to handle these... feelings. Fuck tesoro you drive me crazy! Don't you see that? You make me question everything I've ever known and... I can't..." I watched Vittore as his expression turned determined. "Fuck it." He leaned forward and pressed his lips on mine. * * * WARNING! Mentions of death, torture, gore, abuse and other things related to the mafia.
