By Love or By War

Yulian spent twenty eight years making sure nobody would ever need to save her again. By the time she reached the age of twenty eight she had built an empire out of a childhood that tried to break her, and she liked her life quiet, controlled and entirely her own. Then a truck ended it on an ordinary night, right after she finished reading her favorite novel and rolled her eyes at how it ended.

And wouldn't you know, She wakes up as six year old Arielle Vi Astel, granddaughter of a Grand Duke Astel, in the exact story she used to read for fun. The version of Arielle who lived this life first already died once in these pages, executed for refusing to bow to a prince she was supposed to fall in love with. Now there are two of them tangled together in one body and neither the sharp, guarded woman nor the soft, stubborn girl fully knows where one of them ends and the other begins.

This is a story about her figuring that out.

She is stronger than anyone around her realizes, herself included. But this story is less about her winning and more about her learning who she actually is, one messy, guarded, quietly hopeful step at a time.

It's A romance fantasy about rebuilding a life you never asked for and slowly, reluctantly, letting people in while you do it.

RAHHHHHHHHH!!! :3
