saingan ethan

Book 2 of the 'In Love' Saga Five years. That’s how long Ethan Jackson and Demyan Chernyshevsky-Coleman have gone without touching, without talking, without breaking. Five years of dodging family dinners. Five years of stolen glances across the room. Five years of pretending they were over each other. For Demyan, living in the shadow of two legends — Edward and Vasili — was hard enough. Forgetting the boy who owned his heart for a decade? Impossible. For Ethan, fighting to prove he belongs in a name-brand family came with a price. The price was him. The boy he loved. The only one. Now fate has thrown them back into the same room. Old wounds. New temptations. And family expectations that could destroy them both. Will their love survive a second chance... Or will new conquests ruin what was never really over? Read Edward in Love and its side story first to understand the beginning of this legendary family saga.

Pernikahan yang ditempa dalam dendam, di mana cinta adalah satu-satunya risiko yang tidak pernah mereka rencanakan. "Mari kita menikah," kata Mia, suaranya gemetar meskipun ada api di matanya saat dia menatap pandangan Stefan yang waspada. Dia membutuhkan ini—membutuhkan dia—bahkan jika dia memandangnya seperti dia hanyalah komplikasi lain. Stefan menaikkan alisnya, tidak terkesan. "Dan mengapa aku harus melakukannya?" "Kita berdua tahu bagaimana rasanya dikhianati oleh pria yang membesarkan kita," jawabnya, menolak mundur. "Mereka mencuri hak kelahiran kita dan memberikannya kepada orang lain. Satu-satunya perbedaan adalah... kau adalah yang tidak sah. Aku bukan." Dia mempelajarinya—ahli waris ini dalam baju besi desainer, menyembunyikan amarah di balik keanggunan. "Jadi rencana besarmu adalah cincin pernikahan sebagai balas dendam?" "Tidak," katanya, melangkah lebih dekat, cukup dekat baginya untuk mencium aroma melati dan mesiu. "Ini adalah satu-satunya senjata yang tidak akan mereka lihat datang." Ayah mereka membangun kerajaan bisnis dengan manipulasi dan kendali. Sekarang, anak-anak mereka membuat sumpah—untuk membakar semuanya sampai habis. Dua pewaris yang hancur. Satu aliansi berbahaya. Pernikahan yang dibangun atas dendam. Mia Meyers dilahirkan untuk mewarisi kerajaan bisnis ayahnya—sampai dia menyerahkannya kepada anak haramnya sebagai gantinya. Stefan Sterling tahu penolakan terlalu baik, dibuang oleh ayah yang hanya menghargai kekuasaan. Sekarang, rival-yang-menjadi-sekongkol ini menyusun rencana: menikah demi balas dendam, menghancurkan warisan ayah mereka, dan mengambil apa yang seharusnya selalu menjadi milik mereka. Tanpa cinta. Tanpa perasaan. Tanpa perceraian. Tapi ketika batas antara strategi dan obsesi menjadi kabur, pertanyaan sebenarnya adalah: dapatkah dua musuh bertahan dalam pernikahan yang dibangun bukan atas dasar kepercayaan—tetapi atas dasar kebencian?

Misinya sederhana: bertahan hidup dan menang. Tetapi Max Greyson menghalangi jalannya. Tegas, posesif, dan dengan kemampuan menakutkan untuk melihat melalui kebohongan, Max adalah Alfa peringkat teratas di akademi. Dia melihat anak baru, "Evan", sebagai ancaman langsung, teka-teki yang dia ingin pecahkan. Ada sesuatu tentang dia yang tidak masuk akal, dan Max akan menghancurkan setiap dinding untuk mengungkap kebenaran.

Ethan Vance has everything the world covets, unfathomable wealth, absolute corporate dominance as the head of a tech empire, and striking looks that dominate the media. Yet, trapped inside his high-society "golden cage," he feels completely hollow. When his fiancée, Victoria, brutally betrays him for corporate gain, the illusion shatters. Realizing his life is surrounded by vultures who only love his bank account, Ethan decides to do the unthinkable: he orchestrates a temporary disappearance. ​Shaving his manicured stubble, trading his $5,000 bespoke Italian suits for a dirt-stained red flannel, and rubbing industrial grease into his smooth palms, Ethan Vance dies. In his place stands Lucas, a rugged, penniless, and imposing day laborer. He exiles himself to Oakhaven, a gritty, working-class urban district rampant with struggles but anchored by real humanity. ​Enter Clara Winters, a warm, fiercely independent young woman fighting to keep her family’s neighborhood bakery afloat. When she crosses paths with the mysterious, silent, and brooding "Lucas," she doesn't see a billionaire; she sees a man carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. Intrigued by his raw strength and quiet vulnerability, Clara offers him a job and a place in her community. ​As Lucas works the ovens and hauls bricks under the blistering sun, he experiences a profound transformation. Through Clara's fierce love, kindness, and unwavering spirit, he discovers a wealth that money could never buy. But as their passionate, slow-burn romance deepens, a dark twist strikes: a sudden accident causes Ethan to lose his memory, leaving him truly stranded in his alternate identity as Lucas. ​When the powerful vipers of the Vance empire finally track him down, the ultimate clash begins. To protect the woman who saved his soul, Ethan must reclaim his crown. Can a modern dynasty built on cold corporate greed survive a layout redesigned by honesty, sweat, and absolute, unconditional devotion? ​This is the ultimate blueprint for love, where two completely different worlds collide to build a foundation that is permanently, beautifully unbreakable.
