Ambition is the fire that burns within us, propelling us forward even when we stumble and fall into the abyss of despair. It is the force that drives us to rise again, stronger and more resilient.

Annie embraced this creed wholeheartedly, cherishing her humble life in a cottage on the hilltop with her father, Edward. Together, they ran a small bakery, bringing joy to their village with their warm, fragrant loaves of bread and flaky, sweet strawberry pies. But one fateful encounter with the king shattered her peaceful existence, propelling her into a whirlwind of unexpected events.

At a banquet, surrounded by nobles, the king placed a crown on Annie's head.

"I now declare you, before everyone's eyes, the princess of this kingdom."

"Why does this man want to adopt me?"

The palace offers a life of luxury and indulgence, with jewels, fine clothes, and servants at her every beck and call. But it is not what she desires.

"You can't change your fate, but you can make your own destiny," they say.

Faced with difficult choices, Annie must decide how to restore her lost balance. This is the price she must pay to achieve her ambition. This is the destiny she has drawn for herself.

It Isn't Easy Being Queen by BrittanieCharmintine
49 parts Complete
Even teen evil queens need love. Right? (Or at least a handsome sword-fighting minion to do their bidding!) *** Bad things happen when Rowen is around and the worst part is, she has no idea why until a massive family secret sends her on a fantastical journey to fight her evil fate. Will Rowen fold into the forces of dark magic or honor her true self? *** On the surface, Rowen Keckilpenny-Brown seems like a normal teenage girl with normal teen problems-no boyfriend, overprotective parents, and no friends other than a three-legged cat. But her wild red hair, reptilian eyes, and legendary temper say otherwise. When Rowen accidentally blows up the school gym, she discovers a dark secret her fathers have kept from her-she's the heir to an evil queen's throne. The current evil queen, Petronella Grimshaw, is desperate to crown Rowan the new sovereign and blackmails her into traveling to the queendom. Rowen has one month to learn how to evil queen, and it's not easy because there are those in the castle who want her dead, witches are disappearing, and an annoyingly cute swordsman keeps distracting her. Worst of all, Rowan finds herself in a duel against her biggest enemy: herself. She must fight her true fate, in the process uncovering deep familial mysteries and perhaps the biggest secret ever...That maybe, just maybe, she deserves to be loved after all. Princess Diaries meets the School for Good & Evil with a touch of Wednesday Addams thrown in for bad luck. The best kind! Cover by @ClarissaNorth

Stephanie Walker, a straight-A student, sweet,pretty, and every parent's dream. What happens when her simple life clashes with the golden boy on her senior year trip? Her last year in high school wasn't going to be as simple as she thought. "Don't let me catch you, cupcake." His voice boomed from downstairs. And I ran looking for where to hide. I shielded myself behind a pole and tried to calm my nerves. Way to go, Stephanie, my subconscious mind chimed in. I held my breath as I heard his footsteps. "Where are you cupcake?" he asked, and I scoffed internally. Like I would tell him where I am. I waited for a few seconds, and I heard nothing. I felt a hand snake around my waist, and I didn't need to turn around to know who it was. "Found you." He whispered into my ear, and a shiver ran down my spine. "How?" I breathed, turning around to face him. And he smirked, knowing the effect he had on me. 'Get your shits together, fool.' I mentally scolded myself. "Do you really want a real or sugarcoated explanation?" he asked, and I gave him a pointed look. "I could smell you a mile away." He whispered, putting a lock of my hair behind my ear, and butterflies fluttered in my stomach. This guy is going to be the death of me. "That is the sugarcoated version." He said, and I blinked a few times. I glared hard at him. "The pole didn't hide you well. I could see your cardigan peeking out." He said, and I rolled my eyes at him. "Now, time for my revenge." He whispered. I had a confused look on while he had his infamous smirk on. This can't be good! I felt something trickle down my body. I wiped my face and glared daggers at him. He didn't just pour flour on me even though I did the same. Isn't he supposed to be the mature one in this relationship? Putting on a poker face. "Mature much!" I said and walked away from him, pretending to be angry. Time for acting! "Come on babe, you can't ..." This book is amazing, so y'all BETTER TRY IT OUT!

107 parts Complete

A kingdom across the sea, a man in pain clawing at a hated king who bears two shadows who protect him. A child, born from a mother with the powers of the Gods, screaming at a blood-soaked bed. A boy, a Prince, kind and full of the flame of life, sitting beneath a moon bug lit sky. Darkness enfolds the lands, its grasp claiming the continent and making its way from an already broken island, only to be stopped by the hands of fate. The hands of the girl and the Prince, and their love for the people in need of protection. This is their prophecy. This is their destiny and their fate depends on it. The Elemental rulers and their family are just beginning to find allies from unlikely and unimaginative places while creatures of myth and legend resurface from their campfire tales, and things aren't going as planned, so they'll have to find myths and legends of their own. Shouldn't be too hard. #6 - #strong-heroine #41 - #banter **Average Word Count Per Chapter: 8,000 **Edited (x2) LET ME KNOW IF YOU SPOT GRAMMAR ISSUES! *****Last Edited: 12/14/2024 NOTE FROM ME! - I very much model my works to resemble published examples, so there are no notes in any chapters from me, trigger warnings for chapters, etc. Just the world my brain likes to escape to every now and then. Thanks for reading!
