For Isobel, love was supposed to be safe, steady, and secure-until it wasn't. What began as a perfect marriage with Ben unraveled into betrayal, manipulation, and danger when a mysterious stranger named Caleb entered their lives.

Caleb is ruthless, powerful, and everything Ben isn't. Drawn into his dangerous world, Isobel discovers not only the lengths she's willing to go to protect herself, but the parts of herself she never knew existed. As passion and peril collide, Isobel is forced to confront a chilling truth: the man who once vowed to protect her is now her greatest threat.

But Caleb isn't what he seems either. Beneath his cold, calculated exterior lies a man who has spent his life building walls no one could tear down-until Isobel. Their connection is as fierce as it is forbidden, and together, they navigate a web of lies, vengeance, and love that could either destroy them or set them free.

When the stakes rise and the shadows close in, Isobel must decide: can she trust a man who thrives in the dark, or will his world consume her completely?

Full of gripping twists, raw emotion, and sizzling tension, "Beneath the Shadows" is a story of love born from chaos and two people daring to fight for each other in a world determined to tear them apart.Tutti i diritti riservati

Beneath His Wedding Ring (18+) di danielle_binkley

Beneath His Wedding Ring He was never hers to love. But hearts don't care about boundaries. Dani never planned to fall for her boss. She certainly never planned to fall for a married one. But between the quiet glances, the shared coffees, and the whispered laughs in late-night meetings, something dangerous bloomed. Liam is everything Dani shouldn't want-married, older, drowning in a loveless relationship he won't walk away from. But behind his perfect smile and polished wedding ring is a man unraveling, and Dani can't stop herself from being the one who sees him. Their stolen moments grow longer. The silences between them grow louder. And when one stormy afternoon breaks their restraint, Dani crosses a line she can never uncross. What begins as comfort spirals into obsession. Secrets. Longing. A love that was never meant to happen-but now refuses to die quietly. Because sometimes the heart doesn't wait for permission. And sometimes love lives... beneath his wedding ring.

Forbidden Love di Maxtheonetheinly

Forbidden Love is a contemporary young adult romance that delves into the tumultuous world of teenage relationships, exploring themes of class conflict, societal prejudice, and the unwavering power of love in the face of adversity. Isabelle, a privileged Catholic schoolgirl from a wealthy family, lives a structured life governed by tradition and expectation. Her world is meticulously ordered, predictable, and devoid of any real risk or excitement-until she meets Caleb. Caleb is everything Isabelle is not: rebellious, charismatic, and burdened by a troubled past that haunts his present. Their meeting is a chance encounter, a spark of defiance that ignites an immediate and undeniable attraction. Their love story is forbidden from the outset; a stark clash between two vastly different worlds, marked by class divisions and societal expectations. Isabelle's family, firmly rooted in tradition and social standing, vehemently disapproves of Caleb, viewing him as a dangerous influence on their daughter. Meanwhile, Caleb's own history and lingering ties to his past create further barriers to their relationship. Despite the disapproval of those around them and the inherent risks involved, Isabelle and Caleb find themselves falling deeply in love. The story follows their journey, highlighting their struggles against societal pressures, the lingering threats from Caleb's past, and the internal battles they must face as their relationship unfolds. It explores themes of self-discovery, redemption, resilience, and the strength it takes to fight for love, regardless of the odds. Forbidden Love offers a poignant exploration of young love, showcasing the power of human connection and reminding readers of the transformative capabilities of love and acceptance. It's a story of overcoming obstacles, defying expectations, and ultimately, finding your place in the world.

Echoes of Shadows di KatherineLvd

Beneath the Shadows - Part 3 Some people say that marriage changes everything-that it tames a man, softens a woman, turns fire into quiet embers. But they didn't know us. Caleb and I had been through too much to let anything turn to ash. If anything, marriage made us stronger, sharper, more dangerous. We weren't just lovers. We were a team. A force of nature. Together, we rebuilt Caleb's empire piece by piece until it became something no one could touch. More powerful than ever. Untouchable. Unshakable. At least, that's what I thought. It had been nearly a year since Caleb slid that emerald ring onto my finger, a promise that felt like a declaration of war against the rest of the world. And even now, with everything we'd achieved, I still carried shadows inside me. The trauma of the past-the betrayal, the pain, Ben-had left scars I couldn't erase. But I'd learned to use them. To let those shadows make me stronger instead of weaker. If there was one thing Caleb taught me, it was how to survive in a world built on blood and lies. And I was thriving. The woman I used to be-the one who doubted herself, who let others decide her worth-was gone. In her place stood someone new. Someone who could stand next to Caleb and not just survive, but rule. But life has a funny way of testing you just when you think you've won. I didn't know it yet, but the peace we'd fought so hard to build was about to crack. And this time, the betrayal wouldn't come from the outside. This time, it was hiding in plain sight.
