WATTY'S 2022 SHORTLIST🏅A Qing Dynasty Snow White fairytale retelling with a Princess Mononoke twist. Featured on @��������'s Fantasy Adventures reading list and @��������Explorer. Snow is anything but the submissive princess the Jade Palace expects her to be. Her foster mothers find her impossible, her royal tutor labels her incorrigible, and she recently threatened to shave her head if she were forced to marry. When the Empress presents her with an opportunity to go on the imperial spring hunt with the princes and her not-so-secret crush, Prince Erden, Snow jumps at the chance. Who knew that that would lead to an assassination attempt, a harrowing escape, and her getting hopelessly lost in a dark forest during a thunderstorm--with no survival skills whatsoever. The only things she has to help her survive are lots of moxie and latent magical powers she inherited from her deceased mother. Oh, and an ethereally white fox that led seven old dwarves to her. With the Empress's malicious intent now revealed, Snow must discover her true strength, who her mother really is, and what magical powers she wields, in order to find her way back to Erden. If she fails, she might never see him again and die a lonely old crone in the mountains. . . or get murdered anyway when the bloodthirsty Empress--said to have fantastical powers of her own--comes for Snow.

A heartbroken baker and a widowed billionaire strike a deal: a two-month relationship that either ends in marriage or separation. But as their practical arrangement begins to feel all too real, buried secrets and past trauma resurface, forcing them to decide if love is worth the risk. Season 1 of Love Contractually *** Melanie Lane, a struggling bakery owner disillusioned by love, finds an unexpected ally in Christian Dugray, a charismatic COO facing familial pressure to marry. Their practical marriage agreement, designed to satisfy their families and solve personal dilemmas, soon blurs into deeper. As Melanie settles into Christian's world, she starts to question her growing feelings for him and his unresolved past. Will their fake romance withstand the test of real feelings, and can they find a way to turn their agreement into something truly lasting?

Forced into a marriage neither of them wanted, a fierce Greek mafia princess and a ruthless Sicilian underboss must navigate a storm of power, passion, and betrayal-only to discover that their greatest battle might be against their own hearts. *** They hated each other from the moment they met, but little did they know, they were destined to be together. Millicent Rhea Darmos: Princess of the Greek Mafia. At 25 years old, she's established herself as a self proclaimed boss bitch, running her own publishing company. But now it's time she fulfils her duty to her family's organisation. It's time she gets married. Costantino Salvatore Accardi: Underboss and Heir to the Sicilian Mafia. At 28 years old, he has no interest in settling down-he already has it all. He believes in family above all, so why bring in an outsider? Yet, after a strange string of events, the two of them find themselves thrust into married life. It's full of chaos, drama and all kinds of tension. The question is, how do they survive their marriage and the storm that follows? *** "I've never kissed anyone." My voice trembled with a tinge of vulnerability - something I hated. But Costa didn't seem to mind that I was nervous or anxious. "Good. You're mine." He spoke so seriously, without a flicker of doubt as he took my hand in his. "So you want it be special, principessa?" "Every girl's first kiss is special." I whispered, watching as he brought my hand up to his lips. "I only care about yours."

Forced to partner with her work nemesis, Detective April Harper quickly discovers that resisting the charming and notorious Ryan Cooper may be her toughest assignment yet. *** Los Angeles detective April Harper has spent years carving out her place on the force. Fueled by a drive to prove herself, she's let nothing stand in her way. Until Ryan Cooper. Sexy but insufferable, Cooper is April's ultimate rival, so when they find themselves assigned to the same case, friction is inevitable. Their mission: solve a multimillion-dollar real estate fraud case. Their problem: they can't stand each other. April sees Cooper as reckless and arrogant. Cooper thinks April is too rigid and controlling. Every heated argument, every battle for dominance only fuels the tension crackling between them - but is it really all hate? Forced into close quarters, April finds herself questioning how much of their fire is really just temptation. And the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to ignore the pull between them. Late nights chasing leads turn into stolen glances, their fights into something dangerously close to foreplay. But just as April starts to let her guard down, a ghost from her past threatens to destroy everything - including the man she swore she'd never fall for. With the case and her heart on the line, how far will she go to protect them both? *** His lips graze my shoulder. "We should just keep going on about our days like we're not this attracted to each other, huh?" My heart is my throat. If I were strong, I'd put some distance between us. I'd tell him to go home, and we'd keep things professional. But I'm too far gone now. *** Weekly updates on Fridays. Wait & read for free, or unlock with coins-the choice is yours!
