This is the choice for Anna Williams, a young woman convicted of crimes she did not commit.  Sentenced to life imprisonment, she makes the choice to serve her time in the Great British Anomaly, a prison attached to a portal  into an unknown realm.

☽✧ Lost In Prythian ✧☾ {Rhysand x OC} by LadyLumy

Estelle Beaumont just wanted a peaceful hike on her last day of vacation. Instead, one ill-starred moment of curiosity leaves her miraculously stranded in the fictional world of Prythian--a faerie realm full of ruthless court drama, rampant misogyny, and enough deadly magic to keep anyone up at night. Armed with foreknowledge that's only helpful when it isn't actively trying to get her killed, Estelle quickly discovers that living through the story of ACOTAR is far less fun and far more perilous when it's her own basic-ass, untrained mortal life on the line. Her plan is simple: keep her hands off of the plot and survive long enough to find a way back to the family and love she left behind. But the so-called "Mother" clearly has other plans for Estelle, forcing her to confront an unsettling truth--that her role here in Prythian might be far greater than that of a passive observer. As Estelle reluctantly abandons her original plan, uneasy alliances form, old wounds reopen, and fractured trust begins to mend. Love, loss, and scars of the past converge as Estelle slowly starts to see that the family she thought she'd lost might take a new shape, and that the life she left behind might be the only reason she's prepared for the fight ahead. But the cost of shaping Prythian's future--and her own--might be greater than she can bear. After all, it's a future that was never meant to be hers to begin with. And this is all that damned Cauldron's fault... ☆⊱──────⊰ ☽✧☾ ⊱──────⊰☆ A/N: This fanfiction is purely self-indulgent. If you don't like self-insert/iseki like tropes were an original character who read the books ends up in the fictional world as the new main character, you might want to skip this. Somethings will stay very familiar, others will diverge completely, and I plan to add extra world building along the way. Slowburn romance.

Reverie of the Fallen Deity by TheSixthRose

The world of Alaris had always been one ruled by magic and the will of the gods. Most had some degree of renown or magical power, even attaining the status of so called Legends. A woman of no real renown, Alistaria had attempted to claw her way to some degree of notoriety with what little magical power she had. Achieving the rank of captain of a royal guard, she had expected to live a semi average existence. Sent on an expedition to find the source of an emerging insurrection, Alistaria finds herself in a nearly alien outpost in the middle of the desert. After a chance encounter in a place she shouldn't have been, she is infected by a monstrous creature and is forced to watch as she slowly succumbs to changes she didnt intend. Forced into the grip of a vengeful god and granted the power to corrupt the world around her, Alistaria must navigate her own maturation and avoid certain death at the hands of those she once called companions.

Shadows of the Forsaken by BriebrieBuford

Ever since she could remember, the experiments had been part of her life. As a child, they were harmless-just puzzles and strange potions given to her by the woman she called Mother. Back then, she believed it was all a game, a way to make her smarter, stronger. But as she grew, the tests changed. They became invasive. Painful. Each experiment carved new scars into her skin and left her mind tangled in unanswered questions. The woman she once trusted had become a stranger, her warmth replaced by cold calculation. And then the voices started. A shadow lurked within her, whispering, clawing at the edges of her sanity. She wasn't alone in her own body-something else had been forced inside her. Something ancient. Something hungry. Now, she's free... but for how long? With the past chasing her and the monster inside threatening to take control, she's left with one question: Was she ever meant to survive, or was she only meant to become something else?

The mysterious, alluring stranger who seems to know more about her destiny than she does. Betrayal, temptation, and magic collide in a battle for her soul. Will she embrace the darkness... or be consumed by it?" * * * Continue reading if you're interested!!

Awakening - The Last Science #1 by Etzoli

No one ever knows the whole story... Nestled deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, something is emerging. Kept in absolute secrecy, it seeps into a fading town, quietly shared from person to person. For Alden Bensen, a directionless high school graduate, this discovery could mean an escape from his empty existence. To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself. In the face of an unsuspecting world, their decisions shape the growth of a budding society discovering untold power. This potent force offers anyone the power to change humanity forever - or send it cascading into swift and total annihilation. ----- The Last Science is an ongoing science-fiction / low-fantasy web novel series.

I Own A Brothel In Another World (Ch. 197+) by Saileri

Alastair Carter is a 27-year-old marketing and management teacher like many others around the world. Well... maybe besides the fact that he teaches some of that world's prodigies, but it's just a small detail. Even though he loves fantasy novels, he has never expected getting sucked into a fantasy world himself. I mean, who does? Follow Alastair and find out how he will deal with this predicament. Will he be nominated as a hero? Will he save the world in crisis or focus on looking for a way back to Earth? Or perhaps, will he settle down and live peacefully? This is the beginning of a great tale... ★━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━★ Chapter description: ❤ - A bit of explicit content ❤❤ - Around half a chapter of lewds ❤❤❤ - WAIT?! IT'S ALL F***ING LEWDS?! Main release day: Monday What to expect: Some light management, a status system in the background, some slavery, wholesome lewding centered around the MC, a slice of life story with some adventuring and lots of lovely monster girls. What NOT to expect: Depictions of rape, mindbreak or abusive mind control, heavy sexual abuse, NTR and other heavy stuff. The title is not a "bait", but please don't expect fully devoted "hot" chapters every other release. It all depends on the flow of the story (which is still a Slice of Life) and might come to a moment where stuff may happen often, but not all the time. ★━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━★ Community Discord for my novels: https://discord.gg/uPjt6DJ My Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Saileri
