The synopsis sounded good but the FL does not act like anyone who’s been kidnapped and married off against her will. There are no true attempts at escape, struggle or even resistance which would make her more credible. Instead all she does is think about how good looking her kidnapper/captor is, although none of his actions indicate sincerity at this point. I get love stories starting from Stockholm syndrome on WN, but this FL isn’t acting like a princess who was taken against her wishes and made a forced bride. Or even a regular woman who’s been kidnapped. Still have hopes for the magic parts of the story though! But her reactions make the impending romance seem really insincere/contrived

honestly, i think her lack of attempt to escape makes a bit of sense considering she's incredibly insecure, has been told pretty much her whole life that she's useless, and she really has nowhere to go. Her behavior was pretty consistent at the beginning and we could see her grow into herself, however i will say that she got emotionally attatched pretty quickly

Finally, I am leaving myself a shameless author review! SBTRK is a slow-burn romance with lots of political intrigue in a world rife with magic and mythical beasts. There are schemes, fights, squabbles, and an overarching adventure mystery that will unfold with time. Details are scattered everywhere, so do keep a lookout for them! Atticus and Daphne's romance will also start in a rather unorthodox manner. However, things will eventually evolve for them and it will become obvious that not everything is separated into black and white, but rather, the infinite shades of gray in between. Come join the family and set off with me on this journey. I hope you will enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it!

More than 100 chapters in, and it's time for finally my review. So the story starts without any backstory or the world description. The leads both have amazing chemistry and their banter is absolutely entertaining at least during the first half. But, even after 100 chapters you will not find any major event taking place. The plot still had to commence and there are still a lot of mysteries surrounding the leads especially the ML Atticus. 100 chapters and still can't figure out whether he is cold, affectionate or what. Daphne on the other is a neglected princess who is kind hearted but sometimes acts stupid or you can say her kindness is her biggest foe. The author definitely seems to have plans for this to be a big and long story considering all the development up to 100 chapters is still not significant. If you want to read a story with some mystery surrounding the characters and some slow romantic development between leads then go for it. When you read it you will definitely feel the peace is slow but it will keep you intrigued. The author is definitely putting some hard work in it. Good luck to the author and, hoping this won't get dropped.

"Stolen by the Rebel King" is an enthralling tale that takes readers on a captivating journey through a world of intrigue, passion, and forbidden love. The story centers around Daphne, a princess who is kidnapped by King Atticus, the enigmatic and charismatic king of the North, an enemy of her father's. The chemistry between them is palpable, making their forbidden love story all the more irresistible. The descriptions are rich and evocative, painting a clear picture of the landscapes, cultures, and characters that inhabit this realm. The political intrigue and power struggles add layers of complexity to the narrative, keeping readers guessing and eagerly turning the pages. The pacing of the story is well-balanced, with a careful blend of action, romance, and suspense. Each chapter leaves you craving for more, as the plot twists and turns, taking unexpected directions that keep you guessing. Definitely recommended if you're into slow-burns and enemies-to-lovers romances.

Oh. My. God. I've only read up to chapter 7 (still reading) but I just had to run and leave a review. This book is amazing and extremely captivating from chapter one. I literally could not put it down, I didn't even notice when one chapter would end and another would start because I was so drawn in. We've only met the characters Daphne and Atticus for a bit but their personalities and the way they interact are already on full blast. Your writing style is so good and the storyline and use of foreshadowing...amazing. I cannot wait to see where this story takes me. Amazing work, Author!

I don’t usually leave a review unless I know the book is worth reading every page. If you are looking for adventure, mystery, magic, romance, tragedy, redemption, and comedy then Stolen By The Rebel King is your book to read. ❤️ Strap in for a rollercoaster of emotions as both MCs traverse through a world filled with magic, kingdoms, and fantastic beasts. You will fall in love with the character building, the elaborate world and a few spicy chapters to keep you on your toes. The only negative thing I can describe is the antagonists in the book. (But hey… that’s excellent writing when the villains get under your skin.) 😅

Abyssal Awakening

Having spent her childhood confined in chains, Alice was a child who knew neither love nor joy. Scorned by her family while being tortured in the name of the greater good for years, she grew numb to all feeling and thought. That is, until one day, a man in black offered her a chance to escape. There were once rumours widespread of an endless hell, a land of glorious death and dreadful opportunity. Fools went in search of it, and the clever never ventured into it. Only when its baleful mysteries spilled unto the earth did all hear its name — the Abyss. A single drop of its blood could give someone the power to control shadows, move faster than sound, or strength greater than the strongest man. Yet, it all came at a cost; the blood would always make sure those who consumed it became part of the Abyss, with one exception — Alice. Cast away by her own blood, it was her destiny to rot in a gilded cage. But, that fateful day changed everything. Gifted a second chance at life, a chance to turn her life around and claim vengeance against her family, a chance to dive deep into the Abyss and gain the power to govern her own fate, Alice took his hand, unaware of the destiny unfolding before her. Discord: https://discord.gg/vrdTSkj8Va Author Notes: This is my third book, going to take what I learned from before to improve. This book will be focusing on plot, action, depths of character bonds and overall a darker tone/take on this cruel fantasy world I've cooked up for this book! If you give this book a try, I hope you enjoy! A very different experience and tone to Nanomancer Reborn.

Defy The Alpha(s)

Two centuries after the Great War, peace between humans and werewolves was finally achieved, or so everyone believes. Werewolves reign like gods, and humans remain blissfully unaware of their true place in the new world order. To maintain this fragile balance, each year, a handful of "lucky" humans are selected from various districts to attend Lunaris Academy, a prestigious institution that promises glory, status, and a chance to mingle with the elite. Those chosen are hailed as the lucky few, destined to marry powerful alphas and rise as luna. This year, Violet Purple is among the chosen, much to everyone's surprise. For an orphaned girl adopted by a disgraced prostitute, this is a golden ticket to a better life or so she's told. But Lunaris Academy isn’t the paradise it’s painted to be. Everything Violet and her fellow humans have been taught is a lie. Humans are far from equal; they're pawns in a much larger game. The academy is nothing but a gilded cage, and the students are lambs led to slaughter, playthings for the alphas to toy with in their ruthless games. To make matters worse, Violet catches the attention of the most dangerous players in this game, the Terror Four: the Alpha of the North, Alpha of the South, Alpha of the East, and Alpha of the West. Each one is more dangerous, more twisted, and more powerful than the last. But even among themselves, the alphas are divided, each with their own deadly ambitions. Yet, they all have their eyes on her. They expect Violet to play along, to fall in line like the others who worship at their feet, to break under their games. But Violet isn’t like the others. She refuses to bow. She’ll defy them all.
