Mariage surprise avec un milliardaire

La vie de Rain Clayton prend un tournant inattendu lorsqu'elle détruit la voiture de son petit ami infidèle, seulement pour découvrir qu'elle n'appartient pas à lui—elle est celle d'un inconnu. Pis encore, elle découvre par accident qu'elle est mariée à cet inconnu, nul autre qu'Alexandre Lancaster, le Vice-Président reclus et PDG du puissant Groupe Lancaster. Élevée dans une famille qui la maltraitait et maintenant sous la pression de son père pour épouser le fils psychopathe du maire, Rain voit ce mariage surprise comme une bénédiction déguisée. Après des années de souffrance, il semble que les cieux aient enfin pris pitié d'elle, lui offrant un mari milliardaire séduisant—un homme impitoyable envers ses ennemis et exactement ce dont elle a besoin pour échapper aux griffes de sa famille. Mais il y a un gros problème : Alexandre veut un divorce immédiat. Déterminée à le garder, Rain conclut un marché pour prolonger leur mariage, selon ses conditions. Maintenant, tout ce qu'elle a à faire, c'est le convaincre de la garder pour toujours... Quelques semaines ont passé depuis leur mariage surprise… « Que fais-tu ? » s'exclama Rain, les yeux écarquillés alors qu'elle observait Alexandre ramper sur son lit. « J'accomplis mes devoirs de mari, » répondit-il avec un sourire narquois. « Tu ne peux pas dormir ici ! C'est contraire à notre contrat ! » « Je ne le viole pas, » dit Alexandre en haussant les épaules. « Le contrat spécifie que tu rempliras tous les devoirs d'épouse, sauf partager mon lit. Il ne dit rien concernant le fait que je ne puisse pas accomplir les devoirs de mari, y compris partager ton lit. » La situation avait basculé, et on dirait qu'elle n'était plus la seule à avoir le contrôle...

Operation Phoenix : A Zombie Apocalypse Novel

'From the ashes we shall rise.' Summary : Compound-Z. The bioweapon developed by China, using an ancient virus strain discovered beneath the Ice Sheets in Tibet’s Guliya Glacier. An outbreak in the bioweapons facility infected the whole city. The City could not be taken back but thankfully the PLA destroyed the whole city before the zombie virus could spread. The problem; after a year, the samples of Compound-Z was found being auctioned in the Bioweapon black market. Before Clayton Nord shut the whole thing down the moment he first discovered it, an unknown number of global players had already gotten hold of the sample, Russia among them. Now all of them are working to find the cure to the Compound-Z, because anyone who has the cure will have huge power and influence over the world, using the cure as leverage. Now Russia is threatening to release Compound-Z into major population centers in the world as they are losing the war with Ukraine. After a thorough analysis of the consequences of the Compound-Z being released into the world, Clayton Nord forms Operation Phoenix to prepare the US for the possibility of a world wide zombie apocalypse. He does everything he can to make sure that some of human civilization survives through the crisis without losing all of humanity's progress over the years. MILESTONES: OPERATION PHOENIX must hit certain milestones to encourage me to continue after the first month. The milestones are to be passed by the end of the month. And they are: Gain 30 readers following/collections by the end of November . Gain a 50 favorites/power stones by the end of November. Gain 20 reviews and ratings by the end of November. For the First Month these are the Milestones that must be passed to encourage me to continue the story. There is no requirement to support me by sponsoring the work with money for the first month but it would help greatly, for me to focus on writing the Novel. What to expect: Crazy action scenes with zombies. People like to read more about the first outbreaks through an ordinary person’s POV the moment the outbreak occurs. So in Phase One you can read the outbreak stories through multiple viewpoints in various places. Phase One would have the largest word count because of that. And some characters may not live through Phase One. Zombies are the antagonists but there will be other fleshed out human antagonists that pose a serious threat to Operation Phoenix further into the story. You will get to see the moment at start when the outbreak happens till the Zombie apocalypse ends. The struggle Clayton Nord, as commander of Operation Phoenix, faces to ensure that most of the population of the USA survives through the apocalypse, a task that is almost impossible. Rich world building and lore with unique characters. Plan for the Novel: New chapters are released every Monday. I will try to keep the timing consistent. At the end of the series I want to convert it into an ebook to sell on Amazon. The end product might be different than the chapters I have published as I try to improve upon them. Thank You so much for spending your time reading my work. You can support me via https://ko-fi.com/hughstarling
