Beschreibung

The plot takes place in France in the 19th century as Émile, a progressive young man concerned with social justice, falls in love with Gilberte, the daughter of his neighbor, Monsieur Antoine, Count of Chateaubrun. Monsieur Antoine is a ruined nobleman who had to become a worker in order to survive. Because of that the young couple's relationship is not approved by Émile's father, an authoritarian industrialist who ran a factory in Gargilesse. Émile and Gilberte received the support of a worker, Jean, as well as an eccentric nobleman, the Marquis de Boisguilsbault, who bequeathed his fortune to the couple in order to found an agrarian community. Émile and Gilberte want to put into practice their ideas of social progress in the region fighting for their love in the process.

    I'm a one-and-done kind of hellhound . . . I don't catch feeeeeeeelings . . .  
     
     
     
    Once upon a time, my first and last relationship taught me that romantic love isn't enough to stop your boyfriend from trying to kill you. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. My awesomeness is now strictly reserved for one-nighters and casual hookups. 
     
      
     
    Besides, things are heating up at the Community of Species Government, and I'm right in the thick of it all. Those bad guys are going down—and not in the good way. They might seem to have the drop on us right now, but we're going to turn the tables on them. Even if it means going on a mission with Aidan Byrne. 
     
     
     
    I'm still not happy about the way Aidan handled things with my bestest bestie a few months back, even if he did turn out to be right. Plus, there's something about him that rubs my fur in the wrong direction. He's the kind of guy who thinks karaoke is only for college kids and looks down on me for licking my own balls. He also thinks that just because he's the species leader, he's in charge. 
     
     
     
    Too bad for him, I've never backed away from a challenge . . . even if it is unnervingly sexy and really bendy. A hookup won't lead to feelings . . . right?

    Jay and Sophie have been dating for a couple of years, but Jay’s friendship with Ellie has always been a source of friction. No matter how many times Jay insists that they’re just friends (despite his secret, years long crush…) Sophie won’t budge. 
    “I don't understand why your friends have to include so many girls” she said, spitting the words venomously. 
    “Well I don't know why you're so insecure that you can't handle me being friends with girls” said Jay, the words out of his mouth before he could stop himself. He knew immediately that he'd gone too far. 
    “Well, you keep picking her over me” said Sophie, a final note her voice. “And I've had enough of it. We are over. We are through.” Jay opened his mouth to say something but didn't know what, and the words wouldn't come. “You can get out” said Sophie. “Out. Go and stay with one of your girlfriends that you like so much.” 
    “Wait” Jay said, and belatedly realized that he didn't really have a come back to that. 
    “I mean it” said Sophie, her eyes narrowing as she spoke. “Go on. If you want to be one of the girls so much, then get out of my house.” 
    Jay find himself crashing at Ellie’s apartment, and the next morning he wakes up feeling weird. Weirder than can be explained by just a breakup. Jay has to wonder… were Sophie’s final words some sort of curse? 
    There’s no time to investigate though, because Jay and Ellie are supposed to be at a birthday party today. Jay doesn’t know if she’s more afraid that everyone will recognize her, or no one will. And all the while, she is trying to work out why Ellie is behaving so differently around her as well.

    Bro big or bro home. 
    Robbie 
    As social chair of Sigma Beta Psi, I’m the life of the party. It’s what I’m known for, and if it’s not fun, I’m not interested, simple as that. 
    I’m not someone who overthinks. 
    So when one of my brothers hooks up with a dude from another frat house, it catches me off guard when I can’t stop thinking about them … together. 
    There’s only one way for me to get this obsession out of my head, and that’s by jumping in with both feet and putting it into practice. 
    The problem is, the one guy who’s up for the ride is the last one I’d expect. 
    Brandon 
    Being risk manager of a frat house is nobody’s idea of a good time. My brothers get annoyed when I put a damper on their plans, and wrangling drunken frat brothers isn’t how I pictured my Saturday nights of senior year. 
    I’m bored. 
    In a rut. 
    Study, frat duties, planning for the future. 
    When is it my turn to let loose for a moment? 
    So when my dumb-as-bricks frat bro is scoping out the house for a little experimenting fun, I throw out the offer like it isn’t the most nerve-racking thing I’ve ever considered. 
    I never imagined I’d actually enjoy it.
