Two-paragraph-Blurb:
In an Empire where worth is judged on strength, crippled and homeless Coward risks a beating every time he leaves his hiding place. He is an embarrassment to the Naghlas, and others of his kind will remind him of his worthlessness every chance they get – even if that admonishment borders being lethal.

Then Coward is caught stealing food and prepares for death… until the Sazi of Zhinda – a legend among his own people – steps forward and saves him. Now Coward finds himself bound to serve the Sazi, and is brought unprepared into high-stakes Palace life. But Empire politics share more with street-survival than he could imagine. Can Coward use his survivor’s instinct to brave a cross-continent diplomatic journey, or will his innate cowardice overcome him and doom the expedition, the Empire… and, worst of all, his savior?

One sentence Blurb:
The Empress ran out of chocolate, and the MC and his boss have to go negotiate for more.All Rights Reserved

Destiny Reckoning by AashishKashyap89

AARYAN never believed in fate. Born into hardship and shaped by struggle, he clawed his way out of the dirt only to find himself trapped in an unforgiving world where the strong prey upon the weak. To survive, he relies on sharp instincts, careful calculations, and an iron will-never blind faith. Yet, when an expedition goes awry, AARYAN is thrust into a world he never sought-a world of cultivators, ruthless ambition, and forces beyond his understanding. For the first time, true power-the kind that could rewrite his fate-is within reach. Forced into a ruthless sect where deception is survival and strength is law, AARYAN is caught in a web of scheming elders, ruthless rivals, and unseen hands shaping his fate. With only his wits, a growing mastery of cultivation, and an uncanny knack for getting into (and out of) absurd situations, he must carve his own path-one not dictated by destiny. But fate is not so easily denied. Shadows of the past stir, whispers of something greater call to him, and something far older watches from the dark. In a world where the heavens dictate the fates of all, AARYAN has only one goal: to prove that his life is his to control. Even if it means standing against the very will of the heavens themselves.

Exile: The Book of Ever by JamesCormier

Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.

Shurak, book 2 by noozaster

My crew and I take the jobs we need to survive in a world overrun by aliens. We fly a stolen ship that once trafficked women-us included. Now, we make our own rules and do whatever it takes to stay free. My latest job? Rehabilitate a Zohra-a towering alien locked away in prison, meant to be tamed into usefulness for his captors. Then I meet him-my job, a mute Zohra. And that's when everything goes sideways. Rescuing him wasn't in the plan, yet now we're on the run, supposedly relying on each other... except I'm the one doing all the work. He's frustrating. Completely useless. A liability, really. And yet, for some ridiculous reason, I just can't leave him behind.

Sugar daddy+18ff by A396zking

It is a story of trap trap of love status story of use a person intest story is best on like real life oh reality which is happened the life.This story is about people who are so fond of watching you that they forget in the fun of their life that everything is not the same and life is something else.People who blindly start trusting others and then they don't know how to change people for their innocence.This story is also similar in that there is a omega boy who just wants to get rid of his poverty and become a model to fulfill himself.A man comes into his life who is very rich and tells him that if you listen to me, I can give you everything in the world.At first he doesn't trust her and is angered by her actions, but gradually he becomes overwhelmed by her desires and wants to fulfill himself. But what happens next is that if the rich are more, they use him and then ruin his life, 🥺 Lesson of storie (not always.trust anyone) And do not be blinded by your desires If we ourselves, then desires gives, if you destroy yourself, then desires can never be fulfilled😞)
