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 😁

The Prince of Military Academy Is Actually A Girl!

After dying from a strange terminal illness, Ling Lan was reborn into a world 10000 years into the future. Although she dearly wished she could just live a peaceful and uneventful life in her new healthy body, fate had other plans ... Forced to disguise herself as a boy just so she could inherit her deceased father's premium military benefits, Ling Lan's journey to adulthood was full of challenges. After much difficulty, she finally turned sixteen when she could drop the charade. But before she could grasp her newfound freedom to get married and start her own family, a twist of fate results in her being thrown into the Federation's top military boys' school. With these twists of fate, Ling Lan had little choice but to walk further and further down a path of no return, one of cold and aloof dominance ... ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ryuxenji the translator here. :3 Here are some other things you should know: 1) This story is NOT primarily a romance. QI's system right now categorizes all novels taken from the female novel Chinese site (起点女生网) as 'romance' without fail, regardless of whether they truly are romance. So, if you are here just for the romance, you might want to find a different novel. There will be some romance eventually, but most of this novel is Sci-Fi/Xianxia with a lot of world-building and character development. 2) I use British spelling. So, please ensure spelling errors are really errors before reporting them. 3) No matter what the release rate up top says, the guaranteed release rate right now is 1 chp/day (a.k.a. 7 chps/week). All else is extra at my discretion. (I'll try my best, but RL responsibilities come first.)
