Writing this review 5 chapters in: Vivian's carefree and vibrant character comes across well in the text. The academy setting with its ranking system is a nice touch too. It would be cool to follow the characters as they grow and level up. Gavin is a bit of a blank at the moment -will read on to see how he grows. The writer seems like she's having fun writing - and it comes across in the text :) There are some grammar and spelling errors, but these can be easily remedied with a free app like Grammarly. :) There were some very long sentences in the first chapter - which got slightly confusing - but this improved in the next few chapters, making the story flow better! One suggestion is to communicate the world's background information (ie. like how the ranking system works) through the form of dialogue, instead of doing an info dump in a few paragraphs. It could make the story flow more naturally. Just a suggestion! Keep writing! Am looking forward to seeing how the plot develops. [img=recommend]

I feel the cover of this book does a really big disservice to the content in the book. I thought it was a romance novel mostly based on Victorian era due to it and as I started reading I found that it was not the case and I am sooooo glad about it!! I really liked the introductory chapter, it does a good job of setting up the story and I really liked the way it's written. I didn't really find anything to criticize about, and that's a great thing. I really liked the dialogues and characters. I will be waiting on the upcoming chapters :)

Given that some romance novels on this site can be bland and a little unrealistic, this novel is actually quite refreshing! It's clear the author knows where they want to take the story and I'm excited to see how it all evovles! Definitely give it a try!

This book is quite interesting if you're into vampires and werewolves. Review Proper after reading the latest chapter 8 release... Writing Quality. The narratives are easy to read and fun. Though, I advise that you could use some more proofreading of your work to make it better. Stability of Updates. Just take your time honing this. Quality over quantity. Story Development. It's pretty well. As you continue to read, there are more interesting you get to learn in the story. Vampires, Werewolves, magic, academy and so much more. Character Design. I enjoy Vivian's persona but sometimes though maybe it's just me. Sometimes I felt her attitude was quite unnatural towards Gavin. Or maybe it's just her thing to get to act close with people because of her carefree nature? Oh, but I love the mysterious air surrounding her. And the puppy too! Well, this is just still starting and everything can still be developed and fleshed out. World Background. Well, actually I thought this would be an old era setup, but I'm surprised to see that is in the modern day. So much to explore and fleshed out more. Overall, this story has lots of potentials. With more development, this story can give us greater experiences 🙏🥰😌

Great story. The story revolves around a girl name Vivian and her cold emotionless love interest in a romance fantasy setting while her friend Jeannie pokes her nose in plot every now and then. The setting of the story is like olympics were bronze,silver, gold category exists. Vivian being in the bronze category rabbit species is indifferent toward the power struggle in the academy while the Gavin is on the top of the food chain being a gold level werewolf. The story shows there journey of love while revolving around the academy of the strongest which is build upon the dead bodies of dead vampires after the war with werewolfs. Writing Quality - Good, you should mention who is talking sometimes it gets confusing. Story development - Steady, Not to fast nor to slow it's perfect from my perspective. Character design - I loved that Vivian is indifferent cause it's realistic this way. We normal people don't really care about the struggle on the top making her feel closer. I am a bit sceptical about Gavin though but I confident he will win me over with time. Story background - It might represents the harry potter style with all the categories and species but with romance as it's priority. (I might not be right only author can say for sure) Will I recommend this book? I will if you are a teenage girl like me looking for a romance fantasy story this might be one for you. (fun fact - Top ten fantasies women have about men consists of were wolfs, vampire, pirates, surgeons. Do you see two in this series?)

The story is very well written. It's easy to loose track of the main object, or over do descriptions, set contradictory character settings in novels that use paranormal setting. However, the author passes them all with panache. Try the story. You just might like it.

Betrayed by Blood, Claimed by the Alpha

“P-please let me go..” I stammered and before I knew it, I was word vomiting while crying. “—I won’t return. You won’t ever see me again. I know you don’t want me as a mate. You hate me, so please let me go.” I cried out. Cain’s jaw tightened with each word that left my lips “What gave you the idea that you have the power to choose what you want?” His voice was low, “You don’t get to decide what, how, and when you leave. Only I get to do that. You don’t get to leave me, you don’t get to run! You only leave when I want you to.” "I didn’t ask for this,” I whispered, trembling. “I didn’t ask to be your mate.” Cain stepped back, “Neither did I,” he muttered under his breath. “But the bond doesn’t give us a choice, does it?” ~~~~ As the only child of her late Alpha father, Avery Jae was meant to inherit her family’s legacy. But on the day of her arranged marriage to Alpha Lucian, her world crumbles. Rejected, humiliated, and cast aside for her own cousin, Avery barely escapes with her life only to find out a much deeper secret. One that changes everything. When Avery awakens, she finds herself in a foreign land, caught by the ruthless guards of the Vehiron pack, led by the infamous Alpha Cain. Tall, broad and as dangerous as the army he commands. Alpha Cain has a reputation that sends chills down the spine of even the most dangerous warriors. Haunted by his dark past, he has vowed never to take a mate, yet the moment he lays eyes on Avery, everything changes. With a single word, Avery is bound to Cain—whether he wants it or not. In a world where betrayal runs deep, can Avery ever trust the alpha who might just be her worst enemy.

Allure Of The Night

[Mature Content] The body of a mermaid is a vault of treasures. Their tears formed the most splendid of pearls, their exquisite blood a euphoric drug for vampires, their luscious hair woven into the finest of silk, and their tender meat sought after by werewolves more than Heaven’s ambrosia. The creatures of night mingled within human society, fleeced in the wool of aristocracy, veiled in their portrayed innocence and nobility, their savagery continued to predate on the weak and powerless. Genevieve Barlow, Eve for short, was an exceptionally strange young lady. She had an alluring and beguiling nature, where for her twenty-four year old self had barely changed in appearance since her eighteenth birthday. She had fooled the administration and had gotten a degree so that she could have a better life. Most odd of all was that Eve had a secret she shared with no one. She enters the house of Moriarty, not just to earn but also to find answers on what happened to her mother nearly two decades ago. Unfortunately, things do not always proceed as one planned. Despite her cautious nature and desire to stay out of sight, a cold pair of eyes falls on her, that soon refuses to leave her out of sight.

Was it you that night?

On the eve of their wedding, Yan Changsheng brought back a girl and publicly called off the marriage. Only then did Shen Qinghe realize that Yan Changsheng was the crazy male lead from a book, and the girl was the irresistible female protagonist. As for her, she was just early cannon fodder fated to die, and her elder sister was the malevolent female supporting character whom everyone wanted to beat up. Tsk, the plot is just freaking ridiculous! After awakening, Shen Qinghe busied herself with cultivation, protecting her elder sister. Yet, unknowingly seizing the female protagonist's luck, she attracted several crazy male leads, each of them forcibly taking what they wanted from her. She thought Dongfang Wuya was relatively normal, but who knew he was crazier, actually seizing the position of Heavenly Emperor and then forcibly marrying her to become the Heavenly Empress! ** As the high and mighty belle of the cultivation world, Dongfang Wuya had countless admirers and fans. Yet he was devoted to cultivation, treating love as if it were dirt. Initially thinking Shen Qinghe was deeply in love with him, he sternly advised her, "Focus on your cultivation, do not get distracted by romantic entanglements!" Later, irked by her dedication to cultivation, he pressed her into his arms and kissed her, seductively coaxing with a playful smile, "Be my Daoist companion, and I'll aid you in cultivation, hmm?"
