Aubrey's gold skin brands her a living, breathing treasure-and she hates it.

High nobles covet Golds like her as trophy wives, while monstrous wyverns hunt her kind to fuel their fiery breath. 

Kept locked away and ruthlessly groomed by her stepmother to be the perfect bride, Aubrey finally gets her chance at freedom when the Crown Prince announces he's seeking a wife. Only a high nobleman's power can tear her late-father's estate from her stepmother's greedy clutches, so Aubrey dons the loathsome gold-revealing gown and charges into high society-sights set on the Prince.

Until rebels ambush her carriage. 

She expects to be kidnapped and bled for a fortune-gold blood like hers fetches a fantastic price-but the enigmatic rebel leader, Abel, has more cunning plans. Worse yet, each time Abel swaggers across her path, the tingles down her spine remind her: only he looks at her like she's a person, not a purchase.

But only high nobility possess the specialized armor to protect her from wyverns.

Entice the Prince to marry her... or become fuel to monsters. 

Then again, maybe her cruel kingdom deserves to burn-and she can spark the blaze.

If Netflix's Bridgerton had dragons... GILDED SCARS AND WYVERNFIRE is the first book in an epic romantic fantasy trilogy full of betrayals, court scheming, airships, grand balls, morally grey heroes, and a slow-burn series-end HEA. 
Perfect for romantasy fans of Gild/The Plated Prisoner series, ACOTAR, Daughter of No Worlds, Fourth Wing, Spark of the Everflame, and When The Moon Hatched.

Livestreaming to the Underworld: The Immortal Went Viral by LingYuexin

[Mystical Livestream • Face-Slapping Karma • Satisfying Plot] Liang Anwan was an immortal on the brink of ascension, until a stray heavenly lightning bolt threw her into modern society, trapping her in the body of a disgraced fake heiress. Blacklisted by her company, drowned in online hate, and nearly broke, she assesses her new life calmly: "If that's the case, I'll just use my old skills." -- Soon, a strange livestream room appears on the Shark app. Netizens mock her at first- "It's 2025, who still believes in superstition?" -but their laughter dies quickly. "Master, you told me not to get married, turns out my boyfriend was cheating on me... with a man!" "Master, you predicted my father's bloody disaster. I rushed home and saved him, my whole family owes you our lives!" Her stream goes viral overnight. Haters become her most loyal fans. And then the Underworld arrives, asking her to serve as their official spokesperson. By day, she reads fortunes for humans. By night, she livestreams ghost-hunting and soul-guiding missions. Terrified spirits she sends downriver arrive in the Underworld only to discover- -hundreds of millions of ghosts are watching her livestream every night, including the Emperor of Fengdu himself, who signs in daily without fail. Later, the truth spreads: the Emperor is supporting his wife. The ghosts freeze in stunned silence... then quietly open her livestream, watching with trembling reverence as the Emperor's beloved wife appears on screen once more. --- Note: This story does contain romance, but it's very light and slow-burn. The focus is on metaphysical livestreaming, ghost-hunting, and supernatural missions. HE guaranteed. 💛

A Lost God (Shoto Todoroki x Reader) by AmethystCrystalline

Y/n felt her body pull forward, the energy wrapping around her like invisible chains. She reached out instinctively - her hand brushing Nahida's fingertips through the flickering barrier. "Nahida-!" Her twin's voice broke. "Y/n!" But before she could respond, the vortex exploded in color - and Y/n was gone. The light vanished. The portal collapsed into nothing, leaving only silence. Nahida dropped to her knees inside the barrier, trembling, her tiny fists pressed against the glass-like wall. (Yaaaa I'm back with a new book~! Hope you enjoy~!)

The Duke Fell for the Villainess by Rojeen_Zara

She was just a tired grade school teacher in the modern world- unappreciated, overworked, and denied her promotion year after year. Her only escape was her favorite otome game... until a tragic accident with a banana peel ended her life. When she opened her eyes again, she wasn't in her small apartment anymore. She was in a luxurious mansion. In a child's body. The villainess of her favorite game. Born as the real daughter of a Marquis, she knew how her story was supposed to end: starvation, betrayal, poison, and death. Her stepmother and stepsister would steal everything from her, and her own father would let her die without a tear. But this time, she refuses to play the role of a doomed villainess. Armed with memories from her past life, loyal brothers at her side, and a sharp tongue sharpened by years of teaching, she'll rewrite fate itself. Yet the world of nobility is more dangerous than she imagined- scheming crown princes, false heroines, poisonous stepmothers, and a cold northern Duke whispered to be a beast. But what if the "beast" turns out to be the one man who sees her for who she truly is?
