Just a shameless author observing due protocol by giving a shameless review! When plotting the story plotline, I wanted to go for something less dramatic and more realistic, almost like a slice-of-life story. I aspire to make the characters as relatable as possible and the story as realistic as can be, but this is still fiction, so expect some unrealistic aspects, so this doesn't get too depressing (as reality often is). The romance will take time to develop, mostly because of FL’s aroace identity; however, there'll be lots of fluff in between to not leave y'all starving. Our FL, Elara, is as normal as they come, just like your average LA citizen. She's from a well-off family, so her life is comfortable and peaceful. The only special thing about her is probably her aroace identity, but every other thing, including how she hides her real self and trusts no one, is, unfortunately, pretty relatable to most people (including me). The story follows how she meets Terrence, her boss, who at first fits the stereotypical ‘perfect’ Image of a CEO but ends up subverting most of it as she gets closer to him. At first, this might seem like a typical slice-of-life romance between an employee and her boss, but as the story goes, you'll be surprised how deep the tunnel really goes, so stick around, and you won't be disappointed! Also, English might not be my first language, but I think I've improved quite enough to not ruin your reading experience with terrible writing. Lastly, this book is currently contesting in the viral call contest so please support it as much as you can if you enjoyed it, comments, reviews, gifts, PS, golden tickets; I'll be very grateful if you do! PS: Follow my FB group Rara's Ebooks for character off-screen moments and other interesting stuff. And for please check out my work, ‘This Transmigration Seems Somewhat Strange’. Thank you for taking your time to read this, enjoy!

I really like how both the ML and FL are written, and their overall interactions. It's very relatable and realistic, and that's the appeal of the story. This novel is more of a slow burn, but I look forward to Elara and Terrence's relationship blooming. Very minor grammar and spelling errors, but overall a good job in writing style. Maybe avoid the constant usage of "male" but instead use "him/he" or even his name? Just a suggestion. Keep up the good work though!

Really cute and sweet story so far. These are not emotionally constipated characters. It’s slow burn and super cozy.

She was known by many names: Demoness, a wicked witch, an heiress born to rule hell, the baddest, and the most poisonous flower in the world of the underground. Little did everyone know, the heiress of the most mysterious assassination organization had a simple dream. A dream that many girls had: to have a peaceful life with a husband and a kid. That was why when this infamous leader of the assassin organization woke up in the body of Heaven Liu, she thought her lifelong dream had finally come true. But the reality was far from what she expected. Heaven Liu was a has-been actress; she disappeared from the limelight at the peak of stardom. The reason? An unwanted pregnancy. Forced to marry a man she didn’t love, the marriage easily fell apart — almost at the brink of no repair. With this reality she had to face, would she be able to mend the broken hearts of her husband and son? Or will the distance between them continue to widen? With this loveless marriage from the get-go, would there be a chance they could live happily as a family? Or was it too late? Most importantly, would she truly escape the chains she thought she had broken free from? Or would her own hell catch up to her to drag her back to the pits of hell where she belongs? ***** EBOOK IS NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON.

My Multiple Identities Revealed After Marrying the Bigshot

In her previous life, she rose from a country girl to become a CEO, working diligently until she died of overwork at 38, only to find that she had been greatly betrayed by her useless husband, who even had a child outside their marriage. When she opened her eyes, she was back to being eighteen years old, facing grandparents who favored boys over girls, a father who was honest and kind but dared not resist his parents, her mother who loved them deeply but was easily bullied by others, and her brother who still loved her despite her coldness. In this life, she decided to take her family away from those greedy relatives, save her brother from a fate of disability, and stay away from her useless ex-husband. Unexpectedly, she saved an even more important person by the roadside. "Your husband is just a country bumpkin; he didn't even get into university. How could you live well with him?" her ex-husband said. One day, a Bentley stopped next to her. A driver got out and bowed to her, saying, "Madam, the Boss is waiting for you for dinner." "I know that car! It belongs to a rich family!" someone exclaimed. "Did he just call her Madam?" another person asked. ... "Did you hear? He brought a country girl home?" "They say that girl is his wife. Isn't it funny?" "Madam has arrived!" said the steward. "OMG, it's the talented girl from the famous university!" "Dear lord! She is the legend of the A-shares!" "I'm just so shocked..." "Hey, guys, she is my wife," he said.

Even After My Death

Jiang Ning was the true heiress of the Huo Family, lost and living outside. After being brought back by her family, her birth parents didn't like her, her cold-faced brother despised her, and her twin brothers would tell her to get lost from the home at the drop of a hat. Waking up alone in the hospital, she was diagnosed by the doctor with a terminal illness, yet her own family was busy throwing a party for the fake heiress. Jiang Ning was furious! She kicked these so-called family members one by one, sending them all flying! If they didn't accept her, she didn't care for them either! ...... Jiang Ning participated in a rural countryside live stream variety show. Her haters caught wind and came to greet Jiang Ning's entire family in the barrage of messages. But what they found was: Day one: Shock! Jiang Ning catches a thief on the street! A golden retriever runs over to help her. Day two: Jiang Ning snatches a child back from human traffickers with her bare hands! A bird publicly defecates on the traffickers' heads! Day three: Jiang Ning fights a criminal in a life-and-death struggle! A goose mocks them at the scene. Thief: "I had already finished stealing, and she still caught me. It's absurd." Murderer on the run for sixteen years: "You might not believe it, but I just came to buy a bottle of water, and she came up to me with a big right hook." A nice countryside live stream somehow turned into a legal synergy. The online audience crazily tagged the official police accounts: "Let's be honest, isn't she an undercover agent you dispatched?" "Jiang Ning's side job is entering the entertainment industry, but her main role is catching criminals, right?" A certain big shot attached a wedding photo: "Wife, mine."

Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO

She gave up her dream of shining on the ballerina stage —for him. She sacrificed her self-respect —for him. She forgot her true identity —for him. But even after all that, she couldn’t compare to the woman who held Ryan’s heart. Arwen Quinn, heiress of prestigious Quinn family, realized too late that no matter what she did, she would never win Ryan’s love. The future that awaited her was a life trapped in endless misery of a loveless marriage. So, decisively, she ends their relationship and walks away. What she didn’t expect was that in breaking free from Ryan, she had opened the door for Aiden to enter her life — a chance that he had been waiting for. Aiden Winslow, an enigmatic CEO isn’t just mysterious —he is determined, and won’t allow to take Arwen away from him again. ____ Excerpt: Aiden narrowed his eyes, “Are you sure about this?” “If I wasn’t sure, I wouldn’t have asked,” Arwen replied coolly. “Stop dawdling. If you’re unwilling, I’ll find someone else who can get the marriage certificates today.” His expression darkened as he pulled her close. “Once offered to me, it’s mine alone.” Unfazed, Arwen asked, “So, do you accept? If yes, we’ll get the certificates now.” “On one condition,” he said. “I don’t do contract marriages. The woman I marry will be the woman I share my bed with. If you agree, then we’ll—” “Not a problem. Let’s go,” Arwen said without letting him finish, pulling him into the Civil Marriage Bureau.
