Forced into a Bratva marriage to settle a blood debt, Alina is delivered to the Reznikov estate like an offering - silent, soft-spoken, and smart enough to know that survival means obedience. Aleksei Reznikov is the coldest man she's ever met. He doesn't raise his voice. He doesn't touch her. He barely looks at her. But beneath his stillness lies a storm. He rules with silence, kills with precision, and makes promises in Russian that chill her to the bone. He tells her not to run. That she belongs to him now. That if she disobeys, he won't raise a hand - he'll break her with nothing but words. But as walls crumble and secrets unravel, the most dangerous thing of all isn't the violence outside their gates. It's the quiet pull between a girl who was never supposed to matter... And the man who swore he wouldn't feel. A slow-burn, dark arranged marriage romance. He's a Bratva heir. She's his obligation. So why is he starting to look at her like she's everything? 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝟏 𝐨𝐟 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐁𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 ༺༒︎༻ 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐝 ✓ 𝟔𝟒 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬

Eleanor De Costa. The Princess of the Italian Mafia kept far away from her empire for a decade, being thrown on a boarding school for the rich and elite since she was just an 8 year old little sweetheart. Separated from her older brothers, cousins, uncles, aunts, and grandparents with no contact. Now that she has graduated as valedictorian, she's ready to go back home. However as she steps back into her childhood walls, greets the faces of whom abandoned her at such a young age, Eleanor can't help but feel angry. Revenger starts becoming a craving as needed as air. But as she strives to hunt and harm, ignoring the battle wounds reopening, she starts to ask questions, questions that challenge the morals she built her mental wall around. When do the consequences outweigh the prizes? When does the heart finally speak against the mind? When is it enough? _____ "The hollow hole in your soul that just for some reason keeps on growing. The loneliness slowly overcoming you. Slow enough for lack of realization yet sure enough to surely over rule you're senses one day. The kind that only family would ever dare leave in their absence." "I have my friends to fill that hole." "You can't heal a bullet wound with a bandage."

Maggie Lane didn't plan to start over-especially not in a sleepy mountain town where the biggest excitement is the Friday night rodeo and gossip spreads faster than wildfire. But when her picture-perfect life in the city crumbled and her charming fiancé revealed a much darker side, Maggie packed her bags, changed her number, and ran. Now hiding behind a new last name and living in the guest house of a reclusive single dad, she's trying to rebuild her life in peace. Her new job as nanny to a spunky five-year-old girl seems like the fresh start she desperately needs-until quiet mornings and home-cooked dinners start to feel dangerously like home. And her brooding boss, Dawson Rhodes? He's the last man she should fall for. Stoic. Grumpy. Protective. And far too observant for Maggie's comfort. But Dawson has shadows of his own-raising his daughter alone after a devastating betrayal, he's sworn off relationships. Until Maggie crashes into his life with her stubborn streak, soft heart, and the kind of fire he thought he'd forgotten how to feel. Just as Maggie begins to let her guard down, strange things start happening: an unmarked package left on the porch, a familiar car spotted in town, and late-night calls from a blocked number. It's not just paranoia. Her ex is still out there. Watching. Waiting. Now, Maggie has to decide if she's ready to stop running-and whether this quiet little town and the cowboy who's captured her heart are worth fighting for.

WARNING: THIS BOOK CONTAINS MATURE THEMES! Kim Jenna is Korea's ultimate entertainment goddess: an S-tier actress, chart-topping soloist, and a flawless icon of sophistication, but behind closed doors, Jenna has the refined taste of a raccoon in a dumpster, regularly binge-reading the absolute trashiest webtoons available. While resting on the set of her new blockbuster, she discovers a newly released, aggressively explicit R-19 manhwa titled The Saintess' Wet Petal. The plot? Completely nonexistent. It's just a cursed, constantly horny saintess named Karina getting devoured like an all-you-can-eat buffet by a pack of feral, equally horny male leads. Then, a speedboat stunt goes hilariously, fatally wrong. Jenna takes a dive, bonks her head, and drowns. The Twist? Instead of a glamorous afterlife, Jenna wakes up inside the exact R-19 webtoon she was just mocking. Even worse? She became a nameless, faceless background extra: a temple maid whose entire job description is cleaning up the literal and metaphorical messes left behind by the main characters' nonstop bedroom antics. Armed with her award-winning acting skills, sharp sarcasm, and sheer refusal to be an unpaid extra in someone else's adult fantasy, Jenna vows to wreck the script, dodge the chaotic male leads, and find a way back to reality at all costs.

Synopsis She was one of the finest emergency doctors of her generation, dedicating her life to saving others. After sacrificing herself to rescue a child, she thought her story had come to an end. Instead, she opened her eyes in 1993. Now trapped in the body of Clara Bennett, a timid young woman from the Republic of Arden, she is forced into an arranged marriage with the most feared man in the military compound. Colonel Damian Ashford. Rumor has it that he is cold-blooded, ruthless, crippled by an old injury, and burdened with three children that no woman is willing to raise. Even Clara's beautiful elder sister refuses to marry him, leaving Clara to be sacrificed in her place. But rumors are not always the truth. Behind the colonel's icy expression is a lonely man carrying responsibilities no one else can bear. The three children everyone believes to be his are actually his missing sister's children-left in his care after she vanished while searching for her husband, a military scientist who disappeared during a classified mission. Armed with modern medical knowledge and memories of the original story, Clara easily overcomes every scheme her greedy family and jealous sister throw at her before the wedding. But once she steps into the military compound, everything changes. The story she remembers ends there. The future is no longer written. As Clara heals Damian's injured leg, earns the trust of three wounded children, and searches for the truth behind a family's disappearance, she unknowingly changes fate itself. Every decision creates a new path, every secret uncovered reveals an even greater mystery, and every day spent with the feared colonel draws them closer together. Can a doctor from the future rewrite a destiny filled with tragedy, reunite a broken family, and find the love and home she never expected? Or will the past she changed create a future no one could have foreseen??

Forced into marriage by duty and obligation, The Duke and Duchess of Rothbury parted ways a week after saying their vows under the explicit understanding that theirs was a marriage in name only. There would be no expectations of love, fidelity, or romance.

When an illness forces him to retire to the country, he makes sure to choose the property where his wife wouldn't be. Except that she is, and she is still as insufferable as ever. The Duchess resents the man who killed her youthful dreams of love and abandoned her to live his bachelor life unencumbered. When she is jilted by her lover, and faced with inevitable ridicule, she decides to retire to her beloved estate in Cornwall, where she runs an orphanage. Never once does she expect to run into her cold, selfish, insufferable arse of a husband! Forced into each other's company by circumstance, the couple begin to unravel their individual prejudices. Resentment turns into respect and friendship. Respect and friendship soon turn into attraction and affection. Was love closer than either one of them could ever have imagined? And that begged the question; can the Duke win his wife's favor, or is it far too late to make their marriage a love match? Cover by MuniWilliams.

But when that perfect life threw her a curveball with two pink lines and a suddenly bare ring finger, she's forced to face a new life she didn't know could belong to her. Now five months pregnant and still alone, she's left trying to prepare for a baby while untangling herself from years that have left her without an identity. She isn't looking for a savior, just wishing to be stable enough for her baby. Eric isn't good with words. He never has been. But in every small act of service, every quiet presence, every protective glance when life reminds Cora how vulnerable she still feels, he says everything he doesn't know how to speak aloud. He doesn't try to save her, but somewhere in that silently protective presence of his, Eric becomes something more dangerous than a savior. He quickly becomes someone she begins to trust.
