Penny a trois frères : l'un est un PDG milliardaire, le second est le plus jeune lieutenant de l'armée, et le dernier est un acteur à succès. Ces trois hommes à succès n'avaient qu'un point commun : harceler Penny, leur petite sœur qu'ils considéraient comme un fardeau. La sœur qu'ils n'avaient jamais souhaitée avoir, et celle qui prétendait être leur vraie sœur, alors que la sœur qu'ils chérissaient depuis tout ce temps était une imposture. Après avoir vécu une vie de mauvais traitements chez sa tante, des personnes de haut rang sont venues annoncer à Penny ses vraies origines. Elle pensait enfin être sauvée des griffes de sa tante, sans savoir que ce qui l'attendait était pire. À 13 ans, Penny ne souhaitait qu'une chose : que ses frères l'aiment et la traitent comme une famille, tout autant qu'ils aimaient leur fausse sœur. Elle travaillait et étudiait dix fois plus que quiconque juste pour être acceptée par eux. Dans son désespoir, elle tomba naïvement dans un piège tendu par une personne malveillante, sans savoir que ses actions entraîneraient la chute de ses frères et qu’elle finirait en prison avec une peine de mort. Le jour de son exécution, Penny n'avait qu'une pensée en tête : Si jamais elle pouvait retourner dans le passé, ses frères pourraient choyer leur fausse sœur autant qu'ils le voulaient ! Elle ne voulait plus rien avoir à faire avec eux ! Et à sa grande surprise, Penny se retrouva le jour où tout avait commencé : le jour de sa naissance. Comme promis, cette fois, elle n'essaierait pas bêtement de gagner l'amour et l'affection de ses frères. Peu importe la famille ! Elle ferait juste beaucoup d'argent, vivrait dans le luxe, et créerait sa propre famille ! Mais attendez, pourquoi maintenant qu'elle ne voulait plus rien avoir à faire avec ses frères, continuaient-ils à se mêler de ses affaires ? N'étaient-ils pas censés choyer leur fausse sœur ? Pourquoi ne la laissent-ils pas tranquille ?! Et comment se fait-il qu'elle soit mariée dans cette vie ? Pour aggraver les choses, ce mari qu'elle n'avait jamais eu dans sa première vie se portait soudainement volontaire pour être le père de ses enfants ?!
``` Penny tem três irmãos: um é um bilionário CEO, o segundo é o tenente militar mais jovem e o último é um ator de sucesso. Esses três homens de sucesso tinham apenas uma coisa em comum: intimidar Penny, a pequena irmã que era um verdadeiro incômodo. A irmã que eles nunca quiseram ter e a que alegava ser a verdadeira irmã deles, enquanto a irmã que tanto valorizaram todo esse tempo era uma farsa. Após viver uma vida de maus-tratos na casa de sua tia, algumas pessoas de alto escalão vieram até Penny com notícias sobre sua verdadeira origem. Ela pensou que finalmente estava salva do domínio de sua tia, sem saber que o que a aguardava era pior. Aos 13 anos, Penny só desejava uma coisa: que seus irmãos a amassem e a tratassem como família, tanto quanto amavam a irmã falsa. Ela trabalhou e estudou dez vezes mais do que qualquer outro apenas para ser aceita por eles. Em seu desespero, ela caiu tola em uma armadilha armada por uma pessoa mal-intencionada, sem saber que suas ações resultariam na queda de seus irmãos e nela acabando na cadeia com uma sentença de morte. No dia de sua execução, Penny tinha apenas um pensamento em mente: Se ela pudesse voltar no tempo, que seus irmãos mimassem a irmã falsa o quanto quisessem! Ela não queria mais nada com eles! E para sua surpresa, Penny se viu de volta ao dia em que tudo começou: o dia em que nasceu. Como prometido, desta vez, ela não tentaria de forma tola ganhar o amor e afeto de seus irmãos. Que se dane a família! Ela simplesmente faria muito dinheiro, viveria no luxo e faria sua própria família! Mas espere, por que agora que ela não queria mais nada com os irmãos, eles insistiam em se meter em seus assuntos? Eles não deveriam estar mimando a irmã falsa? Por que não a deixam em paz?! E como diabos ela estava casada nesta vida? Para piorar as coisas, este marido que ela nunca teve em sua primeira vida estava de repente se oferecendo para ser o pai de seus filhos?! ```

To save her family from dying unjustly like they did in her previous life she has to marry a Prince rumored to be a demon. A marriage that was only a deal on paper turns to something they both can't resist. ** Two people who transverse through a lifetime of difficulty and hardship only to find each other again in another lifetime. Will their love transcend over the forces of time and the evil that lurks behind the power of a wish? Or will fate tear them apart to regain the world's stability. *************** Excerpt "How ridiculous, just because you saved my life, now I have to pay you back by marrying you?" Hamon looked strangely terrifying as he gave her a mocking laugh. If he wasn't already wounded Ara might've beat that laugh off his face, for her own peace of mind. "Your Highness if you keep laughing like that, your wound will open." Her voice sounded muffled behind the armor making it quite gruff. "Shut your disgusting mouth, even your voice is disgusting." "Your Highness, listen to what I ha-" "I'm going to say this one last time. I'm not going to marry you....so You can take your sorry self and leave this place right now while am being nice!" Ara wanted to fume At him when he kept on interrupting her again and again. 'He thinks I'm disgusting, after I risked my life to save him? What an arrogant pompous Prince!' Despite her anger boiling beneath the surface, she said in a calm voice. "Can you please just listen to me first?" __ Excerpt 'Without Arabella...Hamon is nothing.' 'Die? How will you die when I'll be here to bring you back? Not even death can take you away from me, wife.' 'If anything happens to you...I will ruin the entire world!' Memories of his words to his wife began to echo in his head, then images of her smiling face. And what she said earlier. 'If you tell me to split up with you again, I'll get very mad at you. And I won't allow you hold me to sleep tonight!' 'Hamon, I'll be dead before I leave your side, I am your wife and once your soldier, I am not a coward. I am staying by your side!' Hamon sat frozen on the cold forest ground as he held Ara's dead body in his arms. There was no longer any signs of tears in his eyes, all that was left was a pair of soulless eyes. He slowly glanced down at her pale lifeless face, the reality began to sink to his mind. His wife was dead, Ara was dead... She died saving him, taking the arrows meant for him. As those thoughts went through his mind, his face slowly began to darken, like cloudy storms of an incoming typhoon that could tear the skies and the earth apart, gradually his forearms veins started to turn purple and it spread to his neck veins and forehead. He pulled away from Ara's body and stood to his feet. Eyes as red as blood, claws long and sharp pierced through his fingers cutting his skin, but he didn't so much as flinch as the blood dripped from them. Purple dark veins appeared on his face as his sharp fangs peeked out of his clenched lips. There the Demon stood with flames blazing in his hands, it looked nothing like Hamon. Just his soulless eyes were enough to make one crawl away in fright. __ Note: this book is a slow burn romance, and there's no major tragedy. You can also check out my other book.

He decided to marry the widow of his late younger brother so that he could take over the Beromont territory which his brother possessed. But was this the only reason he wanted to marry Charlotte? ~~~~~~~~ "What are you doing?" Terrified Charlotte asked as she saw Édouard unbuttoning his shirt. "I am hot, so I am taking off the shirt," Édouard said and reached for the last button. "But it's cold weather," Charlotte said and knitted her brows. "Not here, Charlotte. Your mere presence around me makes me hot," Édouard said and took off the shirt. "Ahhh!" Charlotte quickly brought her hands in front of her eyes and covered them. From the gaps between her fingers, she peeked out of curiosity. A lump formed in her throat as she saw his perfectly carved body with a few scars on the chest and near the abdomen. Charlotte saw him approaching her and she tightly shut her eyes. A few seconds later, when she realized everything was so quiet, she opened her eyes again and found him before her. She promptly moved back and hit the wall behind her. She thought to leave the room when Édouard caged her petite body between his arms. "Are you going to—" "Yes. I want to be wild with you tonight, Little Cherry," Édouard said with a smirk, and the next second, he lifted her in his arms. ~~~~~ *Cover art is mine.
