Introduction
He was supposed to marry another woman…
But he fell in love with a small-town coffee girl instead.
And then he forgot her.
Ryan Callahan has everything—wealth, power, and a future already decided for him. When his ruthless father orders him into a strategic marriage, Ryan rebels… until a devastating car crash wipes his memory clean.
Stranded in a quiet town, he’s taken in by Lilia—a warm, stubborn coffee shop waitress who knows nothing about the empire he comes from. As she nurses him back to health, sparks ignite, walls fall, and Ryan finds something he’s never had before: real love.
But just as he chooses her… his memories return.
Torn between duty and desire, Ryan is dragged back into his gilded cage—forced to prepare for a loveless wedding while his heart remains with the girl he can’t forget. When his father forbids the match, Ryan must make a choice that will cost him everything.
On the day of his wedding, he stops the ceremony.
He chooses her.
But when he returns to find Lilia…
She’s gone.
No goodbye.
No trace.
Just the echo of a love he destroyed.
Now, with nothing left but regret and a promise he refuses to break, Ryan will cross every line, burn every bridge—just to find the woman who saved him… and the love he almost lost forever.

In Bed With My Ex's Brother-in-Law
40.5k Views · Completed · Ady Daniels
He left her on the streets. His brother-in-law picked her up… and made her his wife.
On the day her ex, Mark, married the wealthy socialite Bella, Elena was thrown out with nothing but the clothes on her back—humiliated, broken, and utterly alone.
Until Eric Thompson appeared.
Bella’s older brother. Mark’s powerful brother-in-law. And the most feared Alpha in the city.
He offered her a hand when no one else would. Then, he offered her a deal:
A marriage in name only. A shield against her past. A chance to rebuild.
Elena accepted, expecting a cold arrangement between strangers. But behind closed doors, Eric’s carefully guarded control unraveled—and so did hers. Their chemistry was explosive, their nights intense, and the lines between business and pleasure blurred beyond recognition.
He was the one man she could never have… and the only one she couldn’t resist.
But when Mark realizes what he truly lost, and Bella discovers the secret behind her brother’s bride, Elena must decide:
Is this just a contract?
Or is this the love she was always meant to fight for?

The Contract Wife: Marriage Of Malice

"Tell me to stop, and I will," he murmured against my ear. "But if you don't..."
He didn't finish. He didn't need to.
I didn't tell him to stop.
Instead, my fingers curled into his shirt, clutching the fabric as though it was my only anchor. Something in him snapped—something he had been holding back for too long. His mouth found mine in a kiss that wasn't tender, but hungry, desperate.
I gasped into him, his hand sliding up to cup my jaw, holding me as if afraid I might vanish.
"You drive me insane," he breathed against my mouth, his lips trailing to my throat. "I can't lose you, Ella. Not you."
My head fell back, a soft sound escaping me as his fingers memorized my waist. My anger melted beneath his desperation.
"James..." I whispered, more plea than protest.
His hand caught mine, fingers threading together tightly. "I'll bring him back. I swear it. Just... don't turn away from me. Please."
The word please—low, ragged, almost broken—undid me more than anything else could have.
Ella never imagined she would marry the man she had secretly loved for years in such a way.
When her brother Theo faced twenty-five years in prison for massive embezzlement, the ruthless business tycoon James Lancaster offered her a deal: marry him in exchange for her brother's freedom.
This wasn't a fairy tale proposal, but a carefully orchestrated revenge. Because in James's heart, Ella was the culprit who had killed his sister Cecilia. He wanted her to pay the price—to atone with a lifetime of suffering.

Even with the suspicion clinging to the proposal, Meadow let herself believe it. She stepped into the marriage blindly, hoping love would fill the quiet spaces of her mute, colourless life.
But the truth comes fast, and cruel.
The Alpha never asked for her. Never wanted her. Luna Amber arranged everything without his consent, driven by selfish motives Meadow couldn’t see until it was too late. What should have been tender and sacred becomes a cage, and Meadow is trapped in a nightmare she can’t wake from.
