Jean Noél has always believed in a love that could feel as boundless as the Paris sky. But her reality is the warmth of her family's bakery and the quiet comfort of a life she's eager to escape. When she falls for Lucien Dubois, a charismatic singer with a world-weary charm, she feels she's finally found her destiny. He sees her not as a baker's daughter, but as his muse, his one true love. Yet as his affection grows more possessive and his promises turn into demands, the lines between devotion and delusion begin to blur.
Swept from the streets of Paris to a life lived in the shadow of a famous man, Jean's coming-of-age becomes a twisted dance between the girl she was and the woman she is being shaped to become. As her love for Lucien deepens, she must confront the dangerous truth: is she a lover, a muse, or just a girl lost in the echo of his song?

The Devil in Your Sheets
She thought the devil in her sheets was a curse-until one man made her beg for more, and showed her that her deepest desires weren't flaws... they were exactly what he'd been waiting for. Eileen is no stranger to heartbreak. After her longest relationship yet ends post-sex like all the others, she's convinced the problem must be her. Maybe there's a devil in her sheets, some curse that drives men away once they see her fully. Her confidence? Just an act. Her sex life? A string of Almost Lovers who leave her feeling more alone than ever. Then comes Lucien-quiet, steady, and intense. A furniture maker with a commanding presence and a past shaped by loss and resilience. From the moment he first saw Eileen-sad-eyed but fire-hearted in a cafe-he knew she deserved more than half-love and shallow intimacy. And he wants to give her everything. Their connection sparks fast, but Lucien doesn't rush. He listens. He watches. He sees her. And when he finally touches her, it isn't just pleasure-it's revelation. For the first time, Eileen begins to understand her desires: her sass, her softness, her hunger to surrender to someone strong enough to hold her. What if the "devil" she feared was never a curse-but a craving? A tender and teasing romance of self-discovery, sensual trust, and emotional healing, The Devil in Her Sheets is for readers who love slow seduction, bratty subs, dominant patience, and love that rebuilds you.

Rotten Roses
Zikora Somadina is a twenty-five-year-old author whose words captivate readers across the world, but behind her quiet brilliance lies a heart far more dangerous than most could ever imagine. Lucien Moon, at twenty-nine, is the enigmatic CEO of a powerful biotech and defense empire. To the world, he is untouchable, a man of precision and power. But to Zikora, he is something else entirely, an obsession, a possession, a secret she has no intention of ever letting go. Their paths first crossed eleven years ago, and fate bound them together again three years ago. Through what began as a business partnership. But business quickly gave way to something darker, something personal. Love, if it could be called that, blossomed into something obsessive, intoxicating, and deadly. What looked like a perfect pairing to outsiders was, in truth, a dangerous entanglement between two lovers who mirrored each other's madness. Because not everyone who laughs with you celebrates you. Not every hand extended toward you comes without a knife hidden behind it. In their world, betrayal is inevitable, secrets fester in the shadows, and death is never too far away. Lucien fell first, hard and irrevocably. Zikora followed, but not as the gentle muse people assumed her to be. She was his, fiercely, entirely, and dangerously. Just as he was hers. What they share is not ordinary love, it is possession, a twisted bond where obsession thrives and nothing else matters. But as their empire of passion and power grows, the walls around them begin to crack, revealing truths that will test their devotion in ways neither imagined. In this world, everything is not what it seems. Behind the glamour lies darkness, and behind the smiles lurks betrayal. A story of passion, obsession, secrets, and ruin, where love itself becomes the sharpest weapon of all.
