Let me just start off by with this: this novel never crossed my mind to read it because of the TITLE. It honestly reminds me of many popular translated (I guess not translated as well) Chinese novel titles on here that feel shallow and flat. Though I am up-to-date with the current chapter I’m still not an advocate for the title even now. HOWEVER, let’s just say that in this case the story overpowers my disapprovement of the title that much more. This novel popped up on my recommended novel list for the 7 day reading challenge. With little to nothing I wanted to choose to read from, I decided to give it a shot since who doesn’t like a hot ML who’s a captain?! (plus other reviews who claimed the novel is fluff & candies++👍🏻) Anyways, I’m very impressed that I was hooked onto the story within the first 5 chapters. As mentioned in the synopsis, FL was given another chance to live her first life. She changes for the better and becomes a much more mature and charming person (plus a bit of feistiness to top it off😉). And it’s even better that she and the ML meet near the beginning of the novel🥰 Their love is to die for! They have great trust in one another, good communication to prevent major misunderstandings, and so much fluff and PDA for readers to gladly drown in😂 No shame! AND ML is such a cutie and deserves the world❤️ He is very respectful and always gets the consent of FL before he engages in anything intimate with her. They really are each other’s world🥺 (Heck, where’s my Kiho out there?!😒) The story progression feels very steady despite the two leads jumping into their romance right off the bat. But there is still a good pace that it follows to further heighten and reinforce their relationship. A couple of grammar and spelling errors but it is dismissable and doesn’t hinder the reading progress. Overall, LOVE the story so far. I remember the author mentioning how the story might end between 200-250 chapters, which I think is a wise idea. I can see how this novel could be extended with longer arc lines and more fillers to drag the story out to 300-400 chapters. But I think the value of those -250 chapters will far over weigh that of something more lengthy for the sake of adding more. Lady ‘Crab Goddess’ Tilly X Captain ‘Cinnamon Roll’ Kiho fighting!🥰❤️ And fighting, dear Author! Take care of your health and those around you to give us more lovely content🙈🤗

Thank you for the lengthy and honest review. This made my day. 🥺❤ I was planning to change the title from Mommy Villainess to Mommy Villainess (The Lady with a Crab Mallet). I already talked to my editor. The process is kind of a hassle. I might give it a shot once I have more free time (I'm kinda busy these days). Again, thank you so much for the review. ❤❤❤

You need to read this novel!!! (This review is based on chapters up to the 82nd) Firstly, this is not your typical reincarnation story. The story is full of mysteries that will never fail to hook you. The plot is multi-layered so you won’t be able to guess everything in one go, hence it’s not boring or predictable. I love how author reveal one thing after another in a pace that is neither too slow nor too hasty. So, there is not one chapter that I find boring or unnecessary. This is such a nice thing because sometimes I find stories (even those that I really like) to be dragging or too slow. I can totally feel that the plot is well thought and solid. Secondly, I love how the chapters are quite long. So even if author only updates one chapter daily, but the reading experience is kind of similar to reading 2 chapters daily. So even though the novel has only 82 chapters as of now, but I think it is quite comparable to 150 chapters of most other novels. So far I’ve only encountered 2 or 3 books in webnovel that publish long chapters like this one. So I really really love the author for this. And so far the update seems regular; one chapter daily with extra chapter once in a while. Thirdly, I love the character build in this story. For starter, I so very much in love with both the main couple. The FL was supposedly a villainess in her first life but seems like there is some conspiracies behind the happenings in her previous life. And I love how thoroughly author incorporated the legend of a phoenix in her character; from how she lives a few life with one being better than the previous to her being the heart of phoenix. She is lovely, smart and has a mature beauty; beautiful face with a seductive body. The ML is portrayed as a very good looking man. But because he had lived a very hard life since young, he is quite aloof and quiet. But after meeting the FL, he starts changing and find enjoyment in interacting with her. He is notorious for being the ‘shadow beast’ but personality he is a gentleman through and through. He fits with the saying ‘gentleman in the streets, beast in the sheets’ 😝. I really love how he is with the FL. Their love and passion for each other are to die for and I love every fluffy and steamy moments of them 😆. So, give this a try and you’ll love it!

Beast Alpha and His Cursed Luna

Mature Content- Rated18+ (No rape) "You look lonely and well..." "Well?" The Alpha gave her a condescending smile. "Broken. Like someone who has fought a lot of battles. Someone who has been hurt." She said. "It's true. And thus, I am ready to fight even more battles if it promises what I want," Alpha Maverick said. "And what do you want?" She asked with a sweet smile. "Death. Death of all the rogues for what they did to me," Alpha Maverick said, looking at the girl who became stiff beside him. "You are not a rogue, are you?" Alpha Maverick looked into her enchanting eyes, his hand caressing her cheeks, making her smile awkwardly. She was indeed a rogue, and not just any normal rogue, but one wanted by the entire world. ~~~~~~ "I, Valencia Brooklyn, reject Tyler Anderson as my fateful mate. I would rather accept death than a disloyal mate." These were the exact words that changed her life. Since this werewolf world couldn't accept her for being an omega and not having a wolf, she decided to do the exact same thing. She became a rogue that everyone started fearing and looking for. A rogue who killed other rogues, stole from people, rejected an alpha, deceived the council, and most importantly, lived among humans while breaking all laws and norms. What will happen when someone from the council gives her anonymous case to the strongest alpha in the world? An alpha even stronger than the Alpha King's son? How will she save herself from an alpha who has vowed to kill all the rogues to avenge what they did with him? How will Maverick Aurelius catch this mysterious rogue who doesn't have a scent? When they first meet, he should've killed her, but how was he supposed to recognize her when she was a mere cat? Valencia never turned into her wolf because she was cursed to be a shapeshifter. How will the alpha recognise the rogue in the cat who has developed a weird habit of coming into his room and playing with his things? ~~~~~ P.S. This is my second WSA 2024 entry.

Chosen by Fate, Rejected by the Alpha

Eighteen-year-old Trinity is unlike any other werewolf in her pack. For one, there were unusual circumstances surrounding her birth, for another, she is the only pack member to never shift into a wolf form. So now she doesn't quite belong anywhere. Not quite human and not quite wolf. She thought she would be able to live her life how she wanted when she had turned eighteen. Go to college, make some friends, have some fun. But what is she to do when the dangerously sexy Alpha literally falls right into her lap? "I am not human, and I am not a wolf. I don't belong anywhere..." "...we both know that no one is going to mate with me, and even if they did, they would just reject me anyway." What is the sexy, brooding Alpha going to do? The elders are making him hold these ridiculous parties to search for a mate. He doesn't want a mate, but he knows he needs a mate to finish the Alpha Circle. Without a mate, a Luna for the pack, his people would suffer. And what is he going to do when he stumbles across the girl that fate has chosen for him and he finds out she has no wolf? "This cannot be!" I roared. "There is no way that I can mate with a girl that does not even have a wolf. She will be too weak. She will be inferior. She will not be strong enough to be a Luna." "I simply could not accept her as my mate. Not fully. It wasn't safe for her. She would get herself killed. And she would bring my pack down with her." When these two meet, sparks will surely fly. But will it be from passion, or their constant fighting? Neither of them wanted a mate. Neither of them wants the mate that fate chose for them. And neither of them can make that mate bond go away. What are they going to do now that they're literally stuck with each other? ***Rating Warning*** Adult Language Violence Strong Sexual Content THIS BOOK IS UNDERDER AN EXCLUSIVE CONTRACT AND IT IS NOT TO BE POSTED OR PUBLISHED ANYWHERE ELSE.
