Nemesis is the story of an ordinary man who became the king of the largest slum in Rio, the head of a drug cartel, and perhaps Brazil's most wanted criminal. It's a gripping tale of gold hunters and evangelical pastors, bent police and rich-kid addicts, quixotic politicians and drug lords with math degrees. Traversing through rain forests and high-security prisons, filthy slums and glittering shopping malls, this is also the story of how change came to Brazil.

Marissa Spencer's world has been turned upside down since waking up one morning with magical powers. She has no idea where they came from, and controlling them has not been easy. With the help of her sexy PI boss, Jack Slade, whom Marissa has always had a crush on, she will have to fight a battle for power that began before she was born. Along the way, she'll discover a family she didn't know she had, an inheritance she may not want, a strength she never knew was within her, and a love she'd only dreamed of.

In "Nemesis" si intrecciano quattro storie. La storia di Antonio Francisco Bonfim Lopes, giovane brasiliano onesto, gran lavoratore e padre premuroso, che, per pagare le cure della sua bambina affetta da una rara malattia, non riesce a trovare altra via se non quella del mondo della droga, dove diventa Nem, boss dei boss di Rocinha, e infine l'uomo più ricercato di tutto il Brasile.

Justice expects to meet a naïve college man but instead meets a man who is a natural born boss. From the start, things go sour and she starts to wonder if she can even do business with him at all. Besides the sexual tension between the two, their attitudes clash, and things unravel fast. Not the one to let a bit of attitude get in the way of business, Zahir doesn’t let Justice faze him. After finding his girlfriend Stacey in a compromising position, he cuts all ties with her and moves on, ready to focus on his business ventures.

Meet Justice, the beautiful bombshell with a slick mouth and the attitude to match it. Running a drug empire is hard enough, but try being a female while doing so. In a profession that’s mostly men, she has no problem stepping up and getting it done in her stiletto heels and a Glock on her hip. Anytime she walks in the room, people notice her, and there’s nothing but respect. When the plug dies, and she has to meet with his son, she finds out that there may be more to life than being the head of an empire.

Ein weiteres Problem bei diesem hündischen körperlichen Übergriff: der mysteriöse Besitzer der Bärin könnte der Schlüssel sein, um mein neues Projekt zu finanzieren und meine Spielzeugfirma auf die nächste Ebene zu bringen. Und mit »Spielzeug« meine ich die Art, die Spaß macht, die Art, die jede Frau - und jeder Mann - braucht.

My name is Holly Hyman. I love order and prime numbers - and I’m in trouble. The company I work for is pivoting, and not in a way I like. Our new management? Alex Chortsky, a gorgeous, scruffy Russian devil. Our new direction? VR entertainment of the spicy kind. Maybe I wouldn’t mind it so much if my life’s work wasn’t meant for children. Or if I hadn’t accidentally hooked up with a VR version of my wickedly handsome boss. The only way to save my dream project is to make a Faustian bargain. For one night, I pretend to be Alex Chortsky’s girlfriend.

Dank meiner liebesbedürftigen Hausratte habe ich ein Arbeitsverbot für alle Themenparks in Florida. Was soll man da machen? Natürlich einen Job als Maskottchen für ein lokales Eishockeyteam annehmen. Ich habe nicht damit gerechnet, dass ich an meinem ersten Tag von dem mürrischsten und heißesten Spieler des Teams in einen Pool gestoßen werde. Ich habe auch nicht damit gerechnet, dass wir zusammen in einem evakuierten Gebäude eingeschlossen werden und einen wütenden Kuss austauschen würden, der auf Video festgehalten wird.

Unerwartet Erbin zu werden, hätte alle meine Probleme beseitigen sollen, aber stattdessen habe ich drei neue, riesige: zwei riesige Schildkröten und einen schlanken, gemeinen, zweihundert Pfund schweren Hockeyspieler namens Mason. Er ist ebenso heiß wie unausstehlich und hätte einen guten Wikinger abgegeben, wenn er nicht im falschen Jahrhundert geboren worden wäre. Er will mein Hockeyteam kaufen, akzeptiert kein Nein als Antwort und ist bereit, alles zu tun, um seinen Willen durchzusetzen – egal, wie schmutzig er spielen muss.
