Marriage

Una chica tan joven no debería lidiar con tantos problemas familiares, económicos y mucho menos tener que tomar una de las más importantes decisiones con respecto a su futuro. Poco a poco su horrible mundo va tomando serenidad al encontrar empleo, lo cual le permite encontrar el apartamento perfecto para rentar, con un lindo balcón como el que soñó desde pequeña. Pero su vecino, un coqueto joven con una banda de rock la envuelve en conflictos ahora del tipo amorosos.

En un antiguo convento de Nueva Orleans, el silencio es ley, y el pecado no entra… hasta que llama a la puerta. Elena, una joven novicia con el alma dividida entre la fe y la duda, encuentra una noche a un hombre herido en los límites del claustro. Su nombre es Dante Ruggieri, un mafioso italiano en fuga. Para protegerlo, lo esconde. Para salvarse, él se disfraza: ahora es el Padre Lorenzo, un sacerdote con pasado de sangre y mirada de fuego. A medida que Dante predica falsas palabras ante las hermanas, Elena guarda el secreto más peligroso de todos. La mentira se vuelve hábito. El deseo, oración. Y entre ellos nace un vínculo tan prohibido como inevitable. Pero en el corazón de la Iglesia, ningún pecado se oculta para siempre. Y cuando la verdad salga a la luz, ya será demasiado tarde para volver atrás.

Valeria tiene diecinueve años y una forma urgente de vivir. Actúa antes de pensar, ama con el cuerpo y no se protege de sentir. Nadie lo sabe, pero su cuerpo guarda un diagnóstico irreversible: una enfermedad degenerativa que avanza sin avisar. Mientras puede, Valeria decide vivir como si hoy fuera garantía. Una noche cualquiera conoce a Daniel, un hombre seguro de sí mismo, silencioso y magnético, cuya sola presencia desarma su aparente invencibilidad. Él no la persigue ni intenta salvarla; simplemente observa, y esa distancia la descoloca más que cualquier promesa. Entre una normalidad engañosa, relaciones que evitan mirar de frente y un padre que ama desde la ausencia emocional, Valeria continúa negando el límite hasta que el cuerpo comienza a cobrar lo suyo. Cuando la verdad emerge, ya es tarde para corregir lo que no se quiso ver. Una historia de amor, negación y deseo, donde el cuerpo habla antes que la mente y el tiempo nunca concede treguas.

Cinco años atrás, María Elena huyó del único lugar que conocía, dejando atrás su inocencia… y a Leonel del Monte, el hombre que marcó su alma con una pasión prohibida. Él era el hijo rebelde de sus patrones; ella, la humilde trabajadora que jamás debió enamorarse. Sus mundos eran distintos. Sus caminos, imposibles. Ahora, con el corazón endurecido y una nueva determinación, regresa al pueblo dispuesta a enfrentar su pasado. Pero nada es como antes: Leonel ya no es solo el chico indomable que rompía reglas, sino el heredero oficial de la poderosa familia Del Monte. Aun así, sigue siendo tan arrogante, provocador y peligrosamente encantador como lo recuerda… quizá más. Cuando sus miradas se encuentran de nuevo, el deseo renace con una intensidad que ni los años ni el orgullo han logrado apagar. Pero las heridas del pasado no han sanado, y los secretos que ambos guardan podrían ser más destructivos que cualquier pasión. ¿Puede un amor marcado por el dolor y la diferencia sobrevivir a las cicatrices del tiempo… o terminará consumiéndolos de nuevo?

She dreamed of a fairy tale. He turned that dream into a ruthless contract. Olivia Bailey was an executive at her father’s engineering company. Romantic and devoted, she had always dreamed of building a family, and believed she had found that future beside her boyfriend. On the night she decided to give herself to him, she was drugged by her own boyfriend who planned to “sell” her virginity to his boss in exchange for a promotion. But a mix-up of hotel suites changed everything. Olivia ended up in the arms of a cold, womanizing CEO who didn't believe in love or happily-ever-afters. From that forbidden night, an unexpected pregnancy was born. Desperate to save her brother from ruthless loan sharks and protect her father with heart disease, Olivia used the card left behind that night to pay the debt… and ended up in the hands of Liam Holt. He needed to marry and produce a legitimate heir to inherit his grandfather’s fortune and keep his empire. She had no way out. Under pressure, she agreed to a one-year contract marriage, pretending to be the perfect wife of a billionaire. Between hatred, desire, and secrets, Olivia discovered that pretending forever was impossible… and that this contract could be her prison, or the path to a once-in-a-lifetime love.

After he learns how cruelly she was treated by her family, the cold rejections and all of the hidden pain, his obsession turns lethal. “I own you,” he said in a raspy voice one night, his fist in my hair, yanking my head back to meet his burning eyes. “Every breath and every cry, if anyone should as much think of Hurting you again, I’ll make you watch while I tear them apart, piece by piece. Any man who gets close to you, dies screaming.” She then later uncovers his darkest secret, the bloody truth he buried deep underneath. Will it shatter them… or chain her to him forever?
