      Le grand début de la dark romance en France. Personne n'explore aussi bien la frontière entre la destruction et l'amour que Penelope Douglas. Leur amour peut les sauver… ou les détruire. Michael Crist, un nom qui fait frissonner chaque fille de notre communauté privilégiée de la côte Est. Pour moi, ce n’est pas seulement sa beauté ou sa richesse qui me fascine, mais la noirceur que je devine sous sa carapace dorée. La violence dans son regard noisette, son mépris pour les règles et la morale, reflètent tout ce qui est sombre en moi. En dix-neuf ans, Michael ne m’a jamais remarquée, mais le jour où il s’intéresse à moi, je ne sais pas si je dois être excitée ou terrifiée. « Je l’ai lu deux fois – d’affilée… C’est la plus profonde, la plus sombre et la plus excitante aventure dans laquelle j’ai jamais été entraînée. » – Jay Crownover. « Dark Romance est un chef d’œuvre. Penelope Douglas vous embarque vers les recoins les plus sombres de l’âme où peur et désir se mêlent. Captivant, intense et sexy, ce roman vous laissera étourdi… » – Helena Hunting. Ce roman aborde la provocation et l’accomplissement. Oubliez la frontière entre le bien et le mal, elle est floue. À propos de l'auteur : Après avoir cherché à plaire à tout le monde, Penelope Douglas a décidé de suivre ses propres désirs. Elle écrit des romances intenses où ses héros brisent les règles et affrontent leurs peurs. Elle vit à Las Vegas avec sa famille, cherchant l

    • One woman’s worst fears come to life in the third novel of the Devil’s Night dark romance series by New York Times bestseller Penelope Douglas, now with bonus material. Sending Damon to prison was the worst thing Winter could’ve done. It didn’t matter that he did the crime or that she wished he was dead. Winter thought he’d cool off in jail and be anything but the horror he was, or that at the very least she’d have time to disappear before he got out. But she was wrong. Three years came and went too fast, and prison only gave him time to plan. And while Winter anticipated his vengeance, she didn’t expect this. He doesn’t want to make her hurt. He wants to make everything hurt. Damon knows he needs to get rid of Winter’s father, giving her, her sister, and her mother nowhere to run. The Ashby women are desperate for a knight in shining armor. But that’s not what’s coming. It's time Damon took control of his future. It’s time he showed them all that he will never stop being the nightmare they think he is. Damon won’t have to break into her home to do it. As the new man of the house, he has all the keys.

    • Emory: Will Grayson has always been an animal. Reckless, wild, and someone who was never bound by a single rule other than to do exactly what he wanted. There was no way his grandfather was going to risk him humiliating the family again. Not that the last time was entirely his fault. He might've enjoyed backing me into corners in high school when no one was looking, so they wouldn't catch on that Mr. Popular actually wanted a piece of that quiet, little nerd he loved to torture so much, but...he could also be warm. And fierce in keeping me safe. The truth is...he has a right to hate me. It's all my fault. And I regret nothing. Will: I never minded being locked up. I learned a long time ago that being treated like an animal gives you permission to act like one. Their only mistake is believing anything I do is an accident. I can sit in this house with no internet, television, liquor, or girls, but I'll come out of here with something far more frightening to my enemies. A plan. I just didn't expect one of my enemies to come to me. I can smell her hiding in the house. She's here. Blackchurch houses five prisoners. I'm only one of her problems. Contains mature themes.

Will Grayson has always been reckless, wild, and never been bound by a single rule other than to do exactly what he wanted.

Back in high school, he might’ve enjoyed backing Emory into corners when no one was looking, but he could also be warm. And fierce in keeping her safe. But the truth is, he has a right to hate her. Because it's all her fault. Everything. Devil’s Night. The videos. The arrests. She's to blame—and yet she regrets nothing. He never expected one of his enemies to come straight to him. But now he knows she's here somewhere.

      From New York Times Bestselling author Penelope Douglas comes a new forbidden love story... JORDAN He took me in when I had nowhere else to go. He doesn't use me, hurt me, or forget about me. He doesn't treat me like I'm nothing, take me for granted, or make me feel unsafe. He remembers me, laughs with me, and looks at me. He listens to me, protects me, and sees me. I can feel his eyes on me over the breakfast table, and my heart pumps so hard when I hear him pull in the driveway after work. I have to stop this. It can't happen. My sister once told me there are no good men, and if you find one, he's probably unavailable. Only Pike Lawson isn't the unavailable one. I am. PIKE I took her in, because I thought I was helping.
