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.

After falling off the staircase, Elaine McBerryl arrived at the gates of heaven and rested in peace..... or so she thought. Who would have known that once she opens her eyes, not only she maintained a healthy body, she apparently had the shape of the 12-years-old Elaine Ruby, one of the leading villainess of an otome game* she played when she was younger? It should have been a happy event for Elaine to be reincarnated. However, the in-game villain Elaine Ruby is a girl who is fated to die inside the game. This villainess character never lives until the end if the main character gets her [happy end]. "If I got reborn, why must I have the same fate as before? The world is really unfair" Elaine said with a long sigh, accepts her unfortunate fate, and resolved to live a lazy life until death. After all, what else can you expect from an ex-25-years-old-office-lady Elaine McBerryl who had already experienced death once? Trying to find a way back to her old world? "You're kidding me? I died. Also, I don't want to find a new job.." Practicing magic? "As long as it is not a lot of work, then I'll do it." Getting rid of the main character? "Society interactions are too much work for me." Stopping her death flags** from happening? "I don't know. Maybe? If I feel like it?" Finding a lover? "It's okay. I don't think I need a lover.
