A disgraced noblewoman out for revenge, and a reluctant soldier with unique abilities, thrown together by an unusual arranged marriage neither of them asked for. And both have secrets to keep... This proves a perfect setup for a delightfully complicated romance between two people suddenly thrust into intimate circumstances neither of them were prepared for with a total stranger. Dispite their mutual attraction (not that they'd admit it to each other, or themselves just yet) neither is sure of how much they can trust one another, or quite able to get a read on somone they're only just starting to know. The characters are well written and belivable. You might not agree with every decision they make, but you can understand why they make them. And while they're not perfect, it's easy to see how they might be perfect for one another. The intrigue had me immidiatly hooked. Already there are antagonists who I can't wait to see get their comuppance, and to understand more about the plots and conspiracies that the main characters are tangled in. I'm looking forward to finding out more about what the magic of this world makes possible, not just dreamwalking, but other abilities hinted at as well. Now that I've caught up with the story, I'm extra grateful that it's being published regularly. I'm eager to read more! I supposed I could check out the Author's other completed story to tide me over... 😉

Welcome, fellow readers, to another story by TheOtherNoble! I have had the pleasure and honour to read her previous work, and let me tell you, it was a masterpiece. Now, I'll try not to ramble too much (you'll forgive me if I do tho, I want to make this as comprehensive as possible 😉). This review will follow the basic categories provided by WN. Writing Quality: The writing quality of this novel is insane! I wouldn’t be surprised if you struggle to find a book with similar quality on this platform. It's just that good - I continue to be amazed by it every day. Amazing. Story Development: The story development thus far (I'm sure you can see how many chaps this review is made at 👀😆) has been very good. Both the male and female leads have been introduced. The pacing is neither slow nor too fast, and several conflicts have already been hinted at/brewed. Awesome. Character Design: Trace and Anaisa are both very interesting people. From the very start, we get to see who they are and how they interact with others, as well as any fascinating tidbits - e.g. Trace is a magic wielder and still yearning for a quiet life. Updating Stability: Fret not, fellow readers! Throughout the past year that I have been keeping with the Author's work, she has been extremely consistent. You can expect updates every day. Hooray! 🥳 World Background: So far, not a lot has been introduced, but you can expect a lot more. (What has been introduced tho is intriguing, so don't be put off) Lastly, I just want to say one final thing. Since this primarily aimed at a romance audience, I can reassure you and confidently state that the Author most definitely knows how to write romance, so stay tuned for this one! 🔥 Good luck, Author. I sincerely hope this goes all the way in Cupid's Quill 😁

Letters to Romeo.

[Mature Content. No Rape] 'All it took was breaking one rule that she was not supposed to' He was the bad boy with tattoos. She was the good girl with glasses, and she was his. — When Julianne Winters decides to move to the dormitory of the reputed University, she has everything planned so that she can complete her graduation and leave the place. But her plan is quick to catch fire from the moment the eyes of Roman Moltenore from senior year lands on her. And his appearance screams nothing but TROUBLE. "What rules?" Julianne asked with a frown as she read through the page. She was sure she hadn't seen any rules of the campus mentioned on their website. # 4. No using cell phones. # 12. Students should not roam outside the campus after eleven in the night. The further she read, the more bizarre it turned out to be. Her friend turned the page and then pointed at the last rule # 29. Listen to Roman Moltenore. "This is made up. Look, the last one is even written in pencil." Julianne couldn't believe that her friend from the next dorm thought she would fall for it. "And no phone?" "It is important you abide by all the rules. Especially number twenty nine," said the girl in a serious tone. "Remember not to get involved with Roman. If you happened to see him, run in the other direction. There is a reason why it is written down here." With the rules of the campus, she resorts to sending handwritten letters to her uncle. But who knew it would end up in someone else’s hand!

Royal Secret: I'm a Princess!

After living as a famous Korean vlogger-slash-mukbanger, Neoma died a (shameful) death and regressed to her tragic first life--- the life where she has to live as a hidden princess with a tyrannical father and a yandere twin brother. She died at the hands of her psycho brother in her first life. But luckily, she charmed her "big brother" this time. Her father remains a sc*mbag, though. But a blessing in disguise happened when her twin brother got "sick." Because of that, she has to pretend as the "Crown Prince," forcing her father to treat her well. She thought she was finally on the road to becoming a lady of leisure. But, despite her laziness, she still ends up completing royal duties that put her closer to the throne than her sick twin brother. The next thing she knew, they already prophesied her to be the first empress of their very patriarchal empire. Now Neoma finds herself in the middle of the succession war she never wanted to be involved in! *** [EXCERPT 1] “Neoma de Moonasterio, the first princess of Moonasterion Empire. From now on, you’ll live as Prince Nero’s proxy.” [The hell is this psycho saying?] Neoma, despite her confusion, still smiled at her father--- the emperor. “Father, what do you mean by that?” “From now on, assassins sent by my enemies would target Nero,” the emperor explained. “Until he’s strong enough to protect himself, you’ll pose as your twin brother.” Her smile froze, but she still acted innocent. “But Father. If I take my brother’s position, then wouldn’t the assassins mistake me for him and…” She stopped talking when she realized that was exactly what the emperor wanted her to do. [This sc*mbag wants me to be bait?!] “You’re no longer a princess, Neoma de Moonasterio. From now on, you’ll live as Prince Nero de Moonasterio,” Emperor Nikolai said coldly while looking down at her with glowing red eyes. “Try to survive until your twin brother comes back to take his rightful place, understood?” Neoma was too shocked to react. [Are you f*cking kidding me, you sc*mbag?!] *** [ORIGINAL BOOK COVER. Artwork by sola_cola.] *** [EXCERPT 2] “I’m so sick of your tyrannical a*s,” Neoma yelled at her father aka the emperor. “I won’t forgive you for hurting Lewis and Tteokbokki!” “What will you do about it then?” Nikolai asked with a smirk. “Kill me?” “Yes! I’ll f*cking kill you, sc*mbag!” “Language,” he warned her, upset that his five-year-old daughter curses like a sailor. “Using vulgar words is unbecoming of the future Crown Prince.” “I’m a princess!” Upon yelling those words, the royal princess’s eye color changed from ash-gray to red. [This is getting serious.] “Stop it, Nero,” Nikolai told her sternly. “If you keep that up, the royal knights will come and–” “I’m not Nero!” Neoma screeched angrily. Then she jumped in the air with her left fist, ready to punch him. “In the name of the moon, I’ll punish you!” [What…?] And Princess Neoma, pretending as the Crown Prince for her sick twin brother, punched Emperor Nikolai, her father, in the face.

The General's Pampering Little Foodie Girl

#food Mo Chu was reborn. She opened her eyes to find herself in a world where a thousand years had passed. The docile animals and plants became very aggressive, and elemental abilities that existed only in stories and legends now appeared before her eyes! Fortunately, upon waking up, Mo Chu gained a nice-guy brother who had a sister complex. Unfortunately, she had a one-in-a-million sensitive constitution, so she couldn’t consume 99% of the available food. However, there would always be a solution. If she couldn’t eat the food of this era, couldn’t she come up with new food? And so, she made fries, grilled fish, beggar’s chicken, and various other delicacies that were not available in this future world. As a glutton, Mo Chu was satisfied with this outcome. However… “Wow! What have I been eating all my life? Her food is so delicious, it’s amazing!” “Aside from being delicious, the food can actually increase elemental powers, and its effects are several times better than pills!” “I offer five million Federal Coins!” “I offer ten million. Don’t compete with me! If you do, I’ll fight you!” Mo Chu held up her hands in defeat, feeling helpless. It was only grilled fish. Did they have to get so excited? *** Ning Yiyuan is the only marshal in the Federation and also a top-class expert whose elemental abilities could reach tier 12. Even in an environment where the number of men was double that of women, countless beauties would still throw themselves at him. Yet, he was never fazed. Over the past few decades, Ning Yiyuan was like a monument, always standing at the Federation battlefront. Yet, this monument started to crumble after meeting Mo Chu… “Uncle!” Mo Chu addressed him with her rosy lips, and Ning Yiyuan’s ever stoic face began to crack! He was only 40 this year. In the Federation where the average lifespan of a human was 300 years old, he was considered a youth. So how could he be called an ‘Uncle’? Hmph! He would have a word with this lass!

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.
