This is a joint project with the amazing @EricFieldstone!
On her 18th birthday, like many orphans, the timid Ailah Crest finds herself in a servant market. Her chances of being bought look slim until a mysterious noblewoman arrives in an elegant carriage.
Her new home turns out to be a grand palace, which comes with a slew of troubles. For one, she has to deal with a nasty supervisor and a top maid that despises her. Then the young, handsome king shows interest in her, which attracts the attention of his wife. According to rumours, the queen has already murdered several women out of jealousy.
With few friends and every bit of wit, Ailah would have to survive the dark web of scheming that endangers her life, while pursuing the steamy romance she truly craves.

Lied to her like he didn't. βοΈβοΈβοΈ Once upon a time, in the mist-laced hills of the Gilded Kingdom, a princess was born - not merely to rule, but to become the greatest queen Aurelia had ever known. Raised behind the palace walls she was taught to walk with grace, speak with poise, and bury herself in the ancient tomes of the Great Library. But what becomes of a princess who dreams not of silk gowns, but steel blades? Who craves not a throne beside a king, but the freedom to forge her own fate? When the time comes to select her consort through the age-old contest, Lydia finds herself suffocating in a world of masks and manners. Among the peacocks of polished nobility that now swarm her home, she must navigate deception, ambition, and perhaps, the stirrings of something far more dangerous than politics. As snow falls red upon the palace grounds, whispers stir from the far reaches of the world. The Nine Kingdoms are rising. And destiny - long buried in blood and prophecy - begins to awaken. Lydia's path will lead her to a choice that could shatter her crown, her heart, and the very foundations of her realm. Her hand is at stake. The prize is her kingdom. Because when fairytales end... only steel remains. #1 of The Gilded Kingdom series

On her deathbed, she whispers her wishes to a friend. "If only I could go back in time, I'll make sure to live my life for my sake and not somebody else's." Little did she know that her impossible wish would come true with the help of a mysterious woman. And in her second chance at life, she meets a certain problematic person... "Kaiden Ma" - a young and handsome genius who is also the richest heir in the East - has a little problem. One - he is way too grumpy; and two - he is mysophobic. With his family pushing him in a relationship, the problem escalated. For how can he possibly be in a relationship if he can't even touch anyone? Due to this, he is forced to look for a suitable "pretend" partner. "Senara Lee. I'd like to offer you a deal." "Hm? A deal? What deal?" "I need a fake girlfriend and you're the only one who's trustworthy enough to assume the position. Be my girlfriend for a year and I'll make one of your books into a movie." "For real?! You bet I'm in! Anything for my babies!" (babies - she's referring to her books, yes, she calls them her babies). And so, their hilarious and catastrophic game begins. Well, at least until the "Guardians of Fate" comes in. What will they do with this romance that wasn't supposed to be? And what is the cost of this new life she was given? πΈ πΌ π½πππͺπ©πππͺπ‘ πΎππ©ππ¨π©π§π€π₯ππ πππ§πππ¨ πΈ β A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 1 π¨ A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 2 π₯ A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 3 - 4Complete
