Tainted Lovers

From the depths of a deep and blissful slumber, Chu Yu awoke to the vague sense of someone beside her. Among four of five men that she saw sleeping around her when she awoke, one in particular, caught her eye. 'Who is he?' With his unrivaled elegance and the air of supremacy around him, he gazed upon the princess and asked, "What's wrong, Princess? Did you have a nightmare?" And with that, an uncontrollable chill rose up her spine that made her shiver despite the warmth of the room. Is it a joke? Or is it destiny?

When fiery, ambitious Isabella Carter clashes with arrogant yet brilliant Alexander Blackwood, sparks fly—but not in a good way. As rivals in the corporate world, they stop at nothing to sabotage each other. But when fate forces them into an unexpected partnership, the line between hate and love begins to blur. Will their hatred burn into something deeper, or will their pride keep them apart forever?

The Desperate Lovers Isabella Carter has everything a woman could want—beauty, status, and a powerful fiancé, Nicholas Montgomery, heir to one of the wealthiest families in the country. But behind the perfect engagement lies a heart that belongs to another. Alexander King. The man she loved. The man she lost. Three years ago, Isabella walked away from Alexander, choosing duty over desire. Now, fate has thrown them together again, and the passion they buried refuses to stay hidden. Every glance, every touch, every stolen moment reminds her of what she left behind. But breaking free isn’t easy—not when Nicholas is willing to do whatever it takes to keep her by his side. Torn between loyalty and love, Isabella must make an impossible choice: risk everything for the man who owns her heart or surrender to a life without passion. But love this desperate never fades—it burns, it consumes, and it refuses to be forgotten. When the heart and duty collide, who will she choose? And will love be enough to overcome the forces determined to keep them apart? A breathtaking romance filled with longing, heartbreak, and a love that refuses to die.

A young woman focused on her career and her future, she has carefully steered clear of anything that could unravel the tight grip she has on her world. That is, until one fateful night when a chance encounter with the infamous Dominic “The Bull” Caruso throws everything she’s ever known into chaos.
