Yan Ng is the poorest student at Two Bridges Academy. While her peers are heiresses to great fortunes, her family struggles to get by selling treats at their small humble bakery. Lucky for them, Yan is at the top of her class. But behind closed doors, she feels inadequate as if nothing she ever does is enough. Enter Maia and Ainsley, two girls who swoop in and make her a part of their friend group. For the first time, she feels like she belongs at her preppy private school, but that's because they've confused her family for the owners of Ng Corporation, a massive overseas distribution company. Yan plays along, lying as much as she could to stay with her new rich friends. But when someone from her past threatens to expose her secret after a horrible misunderstanding, she must lie even more to cover her tracks. Can she hold up her elaborate facade or will she be exposed as one of Two Bridges's four charity cases?

Torn from everything she knows, Rowan is thrust into a world of dark magic, ancient secrets, and dangerous desires.

A kingdom stirs. And in the darkness, destiny waits.

He rewrote the rules of pain, of fear - and then, somehow, of love. If you'd told me I'd fall for the man who ruined my life, I would've laughed in your face. But reality doesn't always follow logic.

She chose law to escape the blood-soaked legacy of her family. He chose chaos to burn it all down. Ainaz Moretti has spent years building a future that doesn't end in gunpowder and betrayal. As a top law student in New York, she's smart, sharp-tongued, and fiercely untouchable-until Rafaele Romano storms into her world with secrets that ignite everything she's tried to bury. Cold, arrogant, and dangerously calculated, Rafaele is everything she despises. He's also the only one who knows the truth about her family-and he intends to use it. What starts as rivalry sharpens into obsession, and beneath the sharp tongues and fiery stares is a chemistry neither of them can control. But in a world where loyalty is currency and love is a weakness, falling for your enemy can be fatal. Ruthless hearts. Shattered trust. And a love that could burn them both to the ground.

In the fractured province of Ravaryn, where old magic lingers in whispers and thrones are kept warm by cold hands, Princess Seren is sent to marry the Stormblade himself-Prince Rhevan of House Lysandros. It is a union forged not of love, but of strategy, between houses that barely trust each other more than the darkness creeping at the edges of the realm. Seren is sunshine gilded in sorrow-a girl who smiles to keep from breaking, who plays the role expected of her while hiding a heart full of forgotten dreams. Rhevan is winter forged into steel-silent, brooding, and bound by duty to a title that has stolen all softness from his soul. But when their fates are tied by vow and crown, something older than hatred begins to stir. A memory. A flower. A promise once made-and nearly lost to time. As the kingdoms stone walls close around her, Seren begins to feel echoes of a moment she cannot place, and Rhevan starts to question the war he's waged against his own heart. Their story is one of thorn and bloom, of softness blooming through frost, of eyes that meet across lifetimes and hands that still remember the shape of love. This is not a tale of magic. It is a tale of fate. A tale of star crossed lovers-who meet again. And the slow, aching kind of love that hurts... before it heals. Ages: Rhevan: 21 at the start of the story. Seren: 19 at the start of the story. WARNINGS: CONTAINS GORE, VIOLENCE, EXPLICIT WORDS, EXTREMELY VAGUE DESCRIPTIONS OF SEXUAL ACTIVITY (still have to write it as a warning even though I don't write sexual content but it fades to black and loosely describes that they did it.) STORY IS NOT YET EDITED SO THERE MAY BE MISTAKES Best rankings: 3 - olden days 1 - fantasy ish 39 - epic fantasy
