Romance Love, Rewritten – Prologue
The ink had barely dried on our divorce papers when I left town, vowing never to look back.
Lucas Montgomery had been my first love, my greatest mistake, and the one man I swore I'd never fall for again. We had built a life together, one that should have lasted forever. But forever had an expiration date, and ours came with broken promises, late-night fights, and the painful realization that love wasn't always enough.
I spent years convincing myself I was over him. That I had moved on. That what we had was a closed chapter in a book I had no desire to reread. And I believed it-until the phone call came.
"You might want to sit down for this," my sister, Emma, had said, amusement laced in her voice. "I'm getting married."
I was happy for her. Truly. But then she dropped the second bombshell.
"To Andrew."
Andrew. Lucas's best friend. The same best friend who had been the best man at our wedding.
Now, I had no choice but to return to the town I left behind. To stand in the same room as the man who once promised me forever-only to break every vow.
I told myself I could handle it. That I could face him without falling apart. That time had erased what we once were.
But when I saw Lucas again, standing across the room with those familiar stormy blue eyes and the same smirk that once made my heart race, I knew the truth.
Some love stories never truly end. They just wait to be rewritten. Craving The Forbidden Touch
Billionaires Prologue
Isla knew this was a mistake.
She had spent years resisting Damian Sinclair, keeping her distance, pretending the attraction between them wasn't suffocating. But now, standing in his penthouse with the city lights glowing behind them, she knew there was no turning back.
His gaze burned into her, dark and unreadable. He leaned against the bar, his tailored suit still pristine despite the chaos she felt inside.
"You shouldn't be here," he murmured, his voice a slow, deliberate temptation.
"I know," she whispered.
Yet she didn't move. Neither did he.
Instead, he pushed off the bar and stalked toward her, each step unraveling what little control she had left. He stopped just inches away, his heat wrapping around her, his scent-dark spice and something purely him-making her dizzy.
"Tell me to stop." His fingers brushed against her wrist, tracing a path of fire. "Tell me this is wrong."
Isla opened her mouth, but no words came. Because they both knew the truth.
It was wrong. It was reckless.
And it was inevitable.
Damian tilted her chin up, his breath ghosting over her lips, waiting for her to push him away. But she didn't.
Because tonight, she wasn't going to fight it.

Juggling two jobs to support her younger sister, she has no time for romance-until a mysterious, brooding stranger becomes a regular at the upscale restaurant where she works. He watches her with an intensity that makes her pulse race, tipping generously but never speaking more than a few words.
What she doesn't know is that the stranger is none other than Damian Wolfe, a reclusive billionaire known for his ruthlessness in business and his ability to stay out of the public eye.

But she's innocent, untouched by the corruption of his world, and he knows he should stay away.

Then, an irresistible job offer lands in her lap: a personal assistant role at Wolfe Industries, one that pays far more than she's ever dreamed. Against her better judgment, she accepts... only to find herself working directly under Damian.
As their undeniable chemistry ignites, Emma struggles to understand why someone like Damian would be so interested in her. But just as she starts to trust him, she discovers the shocking truth-she was never meant to work for him by accident. She was chosen.
And when she uncovers the real reason behind Damian's obsession, she realizes she may not be able to escape him... or her own heart.
