tmnt 4 2nd print

Wang Zi Rui, a CEO hardened by years of superficial encounters, has no interest in love. Song Meiqi, an idol worn down by betrayal and quiet tragedies, has long stopped believing in something as fragile as love. Pushed by family and circumstance, the two enter a contract relationship—one built on convenience, not affection. But in a romance built on obligation, can two guarded, wounded hearts discover something real in what was never meant to be… and endure the challenges that stand in their way?

In this new action packed reality, the teenage mutant ninja turtles stumble upon something, or rather someone that has been waiting for what seemed like an eternity. But how will they handle the truths that this accident will reveal? Will their new friend be able to help them on their adventures or will her presence just make everything more difficult? Only time will tell... ______________________________ **Disclaimer: I do not own the rights to TMNT or (most of) the cover art.** ______________________________

Olivia Chen has spent four years building a career at Hayes & Associates, sacrificing everything relationships, sleep, her mother's approval for a shot at junior partnership. When Declan Kane acquires her firm in a hostile takeover, she expects to be fired like everyone else. Instead, he offers her a position on his personal team. With one impossible condition: marry him for one year. Declan needs a wife to fulfill his grandfather's will and claim controlling shares of Kane Capital before his thirty-fifth birthday.

"That seems like a friendly boss," Night said and started walking toward the creature but a cold metallic hand suddenly stopped him. Eve looked up at him and begged with her cute blue mechanical eyes. "Please master. We have enough of us already." "Are we not enough for you Master?" Lilith chimed in while standing in the middle of a filthy dungeon still wearing a spotless maid outfit. Death loomed nearby and spoke ominously. "Only my skeleton army and I are enough. Let's just turn everyone else into a skeleton." Just then the massive boss was suddenly hurled into the air like a toy ball before falling down straight into the jaws of a shadow wolf. The beast swallowed the monster whole and turned back to look at Night cutely as thick saliva dripped from between her rows of razor-sharp teeth. "I am hungry." Night let out a long defeated sigh.
