[BIENTÔT EN RÉÉCRITURE]
À la fin de la tournée mondiale de son frère en Angleterre, Myla, bassiste au talent reconnu et au passé marqué, croise la route d'Isaiah Walton, un chanteur brillant... mais brisé, prisonnier de ses propres démons.
De retour à Los Angeles, elle est déterminée à avancer, à créer, à se réinventer. Mais le destin en décide autrement : Isaiah réapparait et cette fois, il est impossible de l'éviter. Contraints de travailler ensemble sur son nouvel album, ils se retrouvent enfermés dans une collaboration aussi intense que fragile.
Mais très vite, tout bascule. Ce qui ne devait être qu'un projet musical se transforme en un véritable cauchemar, les entraînant dans un univers bien plus sombre que la musique elle-même. L'album d'Isaiah devient alors un simple détail face à ce qu'ils sont en train de vivre.
Parviendront-ils à se reconstruire... ou sont-ils destinés à sombrer ensemble?

The Caretaker He Bought
"You're not here to fall in love." "Trust me, sir... I don't even know what that means." She was sold like a possession-traded away by the very people who were supposed to protect her. At just seventeen, she finds herself in a cold, unfamiliar mansion owned by a powerful man known for his silence, strict rules, and a heartbreak he never talks about. His only condition? Take care of his one-year-old daughter. Don't speak unless spoken to. Don't enter his study. Never touch him. For her, following orders is nothing new. Obedience has kept her alive this long. But the baby's soft cries break something inside her, and her tender touch begins to warm a house that forgot what love felt like. He tells himself she's just a caretaker. Just a temporary solution. But night after night, she shatters rule after rule... And soon, his heart becomes the final one to break. 🎯 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐫𝐞 Genre: Romance / Drama / Slow Burn / Hurt-Comfort Age rating: 16+ (emotional abuse themes, mature emotional content)

These Vengeful vows
They were promised to each other before they could even speak. Heir to an empire. Daughter of a legacy. Bound by a deal neither of them asked for. She's learned to live with the panic that shadows her nights, the anxiety that claws at her chest when the world becomes too much. He's learned to bury the ghosts of his past under power, wealth, and a name that opens every door. But the marriage contract changes everything. One bed. One future. No escape. And just when they begin to see beyond the walls they've built around themselves, a message arrives: I know who killed your mother. The sender? A man the groom once called brother. Someone who lost eight years of his life while he walked free. Someone who wants revenge, not just on him, but on the family that destroyed everything. Lies will surface. Loyalties will shatter. And in the middle of it all, two broken souls will have to decide if they can trust each other... or if love is just another trap waiting to break them.
The Alpha's Softest Sin
"If she dares to run, she'll learn that mercy from me is sharper than cruelty." Tristan's POV She is the fire in my veins, the only ache I cannot kill. One breath from her and I am undone-beast and man both caged by her nearness. "Her nearness poisons me, yet I would drink her a thousand times over." "You don't see it yet, little flame... but your heart is already mine. If love does not bind you to me, chains will. If tenderness fails, I will wield obsession like a blade until you bleed only for me. The world may kneel or burn, I don't care- because you are the only sin I'll never repent, the only war I was born to win." "I would tear out my own soul, if she asked-yet cage hers if she runs."

Emma Grace Brown a singer that can make anyone speechless with her voice of gold. She lights up every room she enters. Sweet, stubborn, loyal, not afraid to speak her mind and a little to soft for her own good, she's the kind of girl who believes in love - or at least, she used to. Then came heartbreak. And walls so high, she swore no one would get past again. Malachi barton: her older brother's best friend. He's cold, off limits, and has a reputation for breaking hearts and never looking back. They don't get along. At all. He's trouble. She's too much. At least that's what they tell themselves. But everything changes when they're forced into each other's lives - and the tension between them stops feeling like hate... and starts feeling like something else entirely. Late nights. Stolen glances. Almosts. He sees the songs no one gets to see. She sees the version of him that is hidden away. He was never supposed to mean anything. She was never supposed to matter. She promised she'd never fall again. He never planned to care. But what if the one person you were never supposed to want..... Is the only one who really sees you?

caged by him
He was the man of power and money. A ruthless 32-year-old billionaire who once believed in love-until betrayal turned his heart to stone. The day he lost the one person he truly cared for, every emotion in him died. Since then, he's convinced that only power and money make the world bend. Even marriage. Even hearts. She was a simple, middle-class girl. A kind soul who believed in humanity, empathy, and emotion. The light in her parents' lives. Someone who couldn't bear to see others in pain-and always chose to help. Until her own life turned into a living hell... the day his eyes fell on her. He dragged her into his world. A devil who made her the angel of his darkness. A man who touched her body... but never her heart. A silence screamed within her-but he never cared to hear it. Until one day... he did. --- What happens when the devil hears the silence of the angel he broke? What will he do when he falls for the woman he once ruined? Can she ever accept him? Can love bloom in the ruins of hatred and forced submission? --- > "You're mine. My fucking butterfly," he growled, thrusting deep inside her. She stared at the ceiling, face blank-emotionless. Because she knew this was never love. From the day she said yes to that marriage, she knew exactly what it meant- To be his possession, not his partner. --- tropes: ^age gap ^forced marriage ^obsessed ML ^innocent FL ^ he fell first and harder. book started: November 2024 ended:
