Deception Stories

Et si l'amour pouvait survivre à tout... sauf aux choix que nous faisons ? Jean et le narrateur sont amis depuis l'enfance. Ils ont grandi ensemble, partagé leurs rêves et appris à affronter les difficultés de la vie. Mais en grandissant, leurs chemins prennent des directions différentes. Puis vient Anne. Entre sentiments naissants, espoirs et non-dits, une histoire commence à se construire. Pourtant, aimer ne suffit pas toujours. Les difficultés financières, le chômage, les blessures du passé et les ambitions personnelles vont mettre à l'épreuve des relations que l'on croyait solides. Lorsque la recherche de réussite devient une obsession et que certains choix éloignent ceux qui comptent le plus, il faut parfois perdre ses repères pour comprendre ce que l'on possède réellement. Laure porte elle aussi ses propres blessures. Derrière son sourire se cachent des histoires qu'elle n'a pas toujours su raconter. Et lorsque le passé revient frapper à la porte, l'amour devra faire face à des épreuves inattendues. Entre Bukavu, les souvenirs d'enfance, les rêves de réussite et les blessures du cœur, Au Sommet de l'amour est une histoire de sentiments, de choix, de pertes et de secondes chances. Parce qu'au sommet de l'amour, on découvre parfois que le véritable défi n'est pas d'aimer... mais de savoir ce que l'on est prêt à sacrifier pour ne pas perdre celui ou celle que l'on aime.

Love makes people do crazy things, sometimes even murder. Larkin Elliot never imagined her relationship with the much older and eccentric Augustine Sidlow would literally end with blood on her hands.

When pieces of their summer together begin to surface in newspaper clippings and photographs left for her to find, Larkin realizes how far Augustine will go to prove his point. She really isn't so innocent. What he wants is simple, be with him or he'll tell all for the accolades alone. They'd be infamous. After all, nothing brings two people together like homicide. It's his word against hers and with an uncertain future; Larkin does the one thing she does best-lie. Every lie pushes her dreams of attending Oxford University and her friends to the wayside. If she tells, she'll lose everything. If she doesn't, her past will haunt her forever. Copyright © 2026 T.A. Joseph All rights reserved

SEVEN CHECKPOINTS. ONE WINNER. $500,000. DONT ENTER IF YOU'LL NEED TO BE RESCUED. The invitation spreads through Los Angeles's private thrill-seeking circles like a dare no one can trace. For a half-million dollars, contestants must survive seven illegal challenges hidden across the city-rooftop crossings, high-speed pursuits, restricted parties, sabotaged machinery, and buildings designed to trap anyone who makes the wrong decision. I enter because fear has never been a good enough reason for me to stay on the ground. I've climbed towers, bridges, cranes, and the exposed skeletons of unfinished and forgotten buildings. I know how to reach places nobody thinks to secure, and I'm willing to go farther than most would consider sane. That makes me exactly what they're looking for. But the checkpoints aren't deciding who deserves the prize. They're testing us for something else. Climber. Driver. Observer. Social engineer. Mechanic. Saboteur. Coordinator. Seven specialties. One carefully assembled crew. By the time we uncover the truth, we've already surveyed the exits, studied the employees, tested the security systems, and mapped the escape routes of the Aurelia-one of the most exclusive hotels overlooking Downtown LA. During a private three-night event, its vault will hold millions in stolen artwork, unregistered diamonds, bearer bonds, cash, and secrets belonging to people powerful enough to bury anyone who touches them. The competition was never the job. It was the audition. And refusing now won't save us. Every challenge was recorded. Every piece of evidence has been arranged to make it look as though we planned the heist ourselves. Someone among the seven of us created the checkpoints. Someone has been controlling us from inside the competition. And whoever they are, they didn't choose me because I follow plans. They chose me because when there's no safe way in, I make one. And everyone here has a quality they needed to peruse what they couldn't do alone.
