notti osama

"Mio fratello ti ucciderebbe, Roman. Diavolo, non dovrei nemmeno essere qui!" Si avvicina, bloccandomi l'uscita. "Lui non è qui, e tu non mi stai dicendo di fermarmi, Nikki. Quindi, perché non smettiamo di mentirci e ammettiamo la verità?" Lo fulmino con lo sguardo. Il cuore mi martella nel petto. "E quale sarebbe, di preciso?" Un sorriso malizioso increspa le sue labbra. "Che ci desideriamo. Da sempre. Non importa quanto sia sbagliato." *** Dieci anni fa, ho quasi baciato l'unico ragazzo da cui avrei dovuto stare alla larga, il migliore amico di mio fratello, Roman Hayes. Ma poi è sparito dalle nostre vite ed è diventato in qualche modo la persona che mio fratello odia di più. Non lo vedo da anni. L'ultimo posto in cui mi aspetto di trovarlo è a un gala di lusso dove sto incontrando potenziali sponsor per la mia associazione di beneficenza, vestito con un abito assurdamente costoso e che puzza di peccato... e in qualche modo, potrebbe essere la risposta a tutte le mie preghiere. Ma c'è una fregatura: Non dovrei assolutamente avvicinarmi a lui, e nel momento in cui i nostri sguardi si incrociano, so di aver commesso l'errore più grande di tutta la mia vita. Dopotutto, è l'ex migliore amico di mio fratello, e tra noi c'è una scintilla che non si è mai spenta, e una verità che nessuno dei due vuole ammettere. Ma alcune verità sono più oscure di quanto avrei mai potuto immaginare, e alcuni giochi sono troppo maliziosi e selvaggi per essere assecondati. Quest'uomo potrebbe distruggere la mia vita in modi che non avevo previsto… E la parte peggiore? Mi godrò ogni secondo.

Tradita dal suo stesso sangue, Nina Storm è costretta a prendere il posto di sua sorella—data in sposa a un Alpha maledetto le cui spose non sopravvivono mai oltre l'undicesimo giorno. Tutti aspettano il suo funerale. Ma quando arriva la dodicesima alba… Nina ne esce viva. Peggio ancora—si risveglia ed è la strega stessa che li ha maledetti tutti. C'è solo un problema: il suo potere è svanito. Per reclamarlo, ha solo una scelta—tradire l'uomo a cui è legata. Sedurre l'Alpha. Prendere ciò di cui ha bisogno. Abbandonarlo al suo destino. Questo era il piano. Fino a lui. Rodrigo non si innamora—si ossessiona. Completamente. Pericolosamente. Irrevocabilmente. E Nina, che era venuta per distruggerlo, si ritrova invece a volerlo salvare. Ma amare l'Alpha ha un prezzo. E questa volta… il prezzo potrebbe essere troppo alto da pagare.

Sera has always been the strong one—independent, ambitious, and always on guard. She doesn’t need a man, but if she ever falls for one, he better be everything. A real man. Someone who makes her feel safe enough to finally be soft. Cass, on the other hand, is the youngest in his family but somehow still more put together than half the men she’s ever met. Charming, reliable, gym-fit, and effortlessly cool, he’s got everyone wrapped around his finger. Except her. Sera doesn’t fall for sweet words or easy smiles. But when time pushes them into each other’s lives, sparks fly, tensions rise, and suddenly, the line between “not now” and “not ever” starts to blur. Maybe love isn’t about timing. Maybe it’s about choosing someone, again and again.

A guy getting reincarnated to the character who everyone disliked.

Noted! is a humorous, slice-of-life comedy that follows a 16-year-old high schooler who hasn’t spoken in years due to a traumatic past. Communicating only through a beat-up notebook, the main character navigates the chaos of high school life with a quirky group of friends who are anything but ordinary. From the overly dramatic Julian, the walking encyclopedia Milo, the mischievous Luca, to the kind and patient Lila, the group’s adventures are filled with hilarious moments and unpredictable antics. Each chapter brings a new, random, and funny scenario—whether it’s a disastrous talent show performance, a museum field trip gone wrong, or a group project that turns into an absurd disaster. Despite the comedic chaos, the novel also explores themes of friendship, self-expression, and the quiet, yet powerful, bond that forms between the MC and their friends. In a world full of noise, this group learns that even silence can be a form of communication—and sometimes, the most memorable moments come from the most unexpected places.

Life was certainly going to prove interesting...

[Irresistible MC + Farming & Entrepreneurship + Strong Female Lead + Cute Baby + Love Rivalry + Farming System + Male Competition] Deng Yuyuan wakes up to find she has transmigrated into a period novel about a "pampered group darling" — as the biological mother of the vicious female villain. The female villain has a biased grandmother, a mooching uncle and his family, a blindly filial father, and a spineless mother. She was a small-time thief as a child. As an adult, she committed every kind of evil — constantly framing the female lead — and ultimately met a miserable end. The female lead is the only daughter in another family, doted on by her older brothers. The villain targeted her out of pure jealousy. And now, Deng Yuyuan has become that villain's cowardly mother — and the villain herself is currently just an ugly, wrinkly-faced infant. The blindly filial father loves his wife, but gives all the good things to his own mother. He says to his starving wife and daughter: "Xiao Yuan, come drink some water. I specially heated it for you." Deng Yuyuan looks at her own bony frame and her tiny child — and decides to get a divorce. Goodbye, useless husband. She's going to raise this little cub with an abundance of money and love. No way she'll go astray this time. Lost one husband, gained a crowd of suitors. A beautiful sent-down youth coveted by many — she knows some self-defense and burns the midnight oil studying. With the reinstatement of the college entrance exams, she takes her child toward a much wider world. Riding the wave of the times, Deng Yuyuan works her way up to become a gaming tycoon and a cutting-edge scientist... Except — why are so many men fighting to be her cub's stepfather?
