In the book blurb, here's a polished version: Luna Russo had chosen to stand by her love, despite being aware of his illicit activities. Desiring a shift in their lives, she confronted him one fateful night, only to be cast out and branded a mistake. Leaving with a weighty secret - her daughter. In the midst of a stormy alleyway, drenched and rooted to the spot, I faced the chilling sight of a gun aimed at my forehead. "I am the assassin sent to end you," he murmured, his grip unyielding. "Then do it. Let our daughter bear the burden of being an orphan, and rest assured, you will never lay eyes on the child we brought into this world," she retorted, fueled by anger and repulsion. #3 on Hitman ©️Published In 2018 by Rosehearted_ ®️Reserved In 2018 by Rosehearted_

Sam is the most promising swordsman among this year’s crop of Paladin trainees...and knows it. Brash, cocky, and unbeatable with a sword (well, almost), Sam is the kingdom of Thule’s best hope against the violence wrought by demons. The only problem is that Sam is really Lady Samantha, daughter of the seventeenth Duke of Haywood, and if her father has his way, she’ll be marrying a Paladin, not becoming one. But Sam has never held much interest in playing damsel-in-distress, and so she rescues herself from a lifetime of boredom and matrimonial drudgery. Pity that Tristan Lyons, the Paladin assigned to train her, is none other than the hero of her childhood. He hasn’t recognized her as Lady Samantha--yet-- but if he does, he’ll take away her sword and send her packing. Sam is not the only trainee hiding secrets: Braeden is a half-demon with a dark past that might be unforgivable. Sam, Braeden and Tristan set out for the western coast, charged with rooting out an infestation of demons that has made the West unlivable. As they travel, they uncover a deep-seated corruption of power that threatens to derail everything they stand for. Rebellion stirs, led by a rival faction of warriors who tempt Sam to join them with an irresistible offer. A war between men is coming, and Sam must pick a side. Will saving the kingdom cost her life -- or just her heart? Reminiscent of Mulan, but with a medieval fantasy twist, Paladin is a tale of adventure, action, and romance.

But she's days from home, and her only assistance is a blundering knight-in-training, a recently captured slave - and the dragon, who follows them around like a curious puppy. A large, dangerous puppy that can look human whenever it chooses - yeah, she's definitely in trouble. BETA/DRAFT: All rights reserved. Visit www.lemedlock.com for information on upcoming stories.

Hunter x Hunter is an amazing manga, one problem... It has no romance, so I added a female character that'll add a twist.... My name is Nijika. I don't know how I got the name though. It was probably because the villagers near the forest saw me for the first time when there was a rainbow over head. Since I could remember I lived in the forest with the animals Yama Inu and Mizu Neko. Those animals were the reason I survived. The animals that were considered extremely dangerous took care of me since I was a toddler. And I grew up. In the first 5 years of my life I learned the language of human by the villagers who lived near the forest. At age 8 I left my small forest with the animals, I bid my goodbye to the kind villagers and traveled. At the age of 10 I hear the name Sorata Kijime for the first time.

A 21st century covert ops agent, Cybelline found herself transported to a medieval world of magic and war without a clue of how she got there. Fine, she'll consider this as early, early retirement and try to have a quiet, peaceful life. Maybe she would buy a farm and raise some ducks. She didn't plan to have royalty fall over her doorstep and demand marriage for "taking his innocence". Granted, she tripped him first, but he deserved it. If her idyllic life had been undisturbed, she could even ignore the war between humans, the Fae, and the Folk. If they had left her alone, perhaps she would have never discovered power so potent that it could destroy the world. Perhaps she would have never become the most feared person in the realm.
