The Best Book Ever Written

A Love Written In The Stars

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. My body stiffened as a palace guard called for me from the other side, but I ignored it. Mei, on the other hand, began pushing me away in a panic. "Cheng, let go," she said, struggling in my arms. "Can't you hear him? What if he comes in and sees us like this?" "I don't care," I replied, my lips brushing her ear. "Tell me you forgive me, that's all I need. I won't let go until you do." I knew I was taking a risk, a huge one, if we were seen like this, there would be consequences. But losing Mei would be the bigger risk, the one I couldn't take. I couldn't let her slip away. "I just need to hear you forgive me, mei. That's all I need right now." The guard knocked again, calling my name, and Mei struggled harder. "Cheng, please," she said, her voice cracking under the strain. But I didn't budge. Finally she muttered, "Fine. I forgive you." "I forgive you, you crazy jerk." "You really mean that?" I asked, my voice barely audible. She nodded, exasperated, and only then did I release her. Just as I did, the door swung open, and I barely had time to step back before the palace guard entered, the guard rushed in, his face pale with worry. It was a close call. too close, but I didn't care. Mei flinched at the intrusion, but quickly composed herself, stepping away from me to a more respectable distance. The guard, wide-eyed and clearly flustered, fell to his knees in a bow. "My deepest apologies, Your Highness. I called for you several times but received no reply. I entered out of concern, fearing the worst." I glanced at Mei, but she wouldn't meet my eyes. She simply gave the guard one last look and walked out, leaving the room without a word. I let out a long, exhausted sigh, running a hand through my hair, still reeling from everything that had just happened. Turning back to the guard, I motioned for him to stand. "Get up" "And next time, don't enter my room without permission." In a fantastical world inspired by imperial China, the story follows Crown Prince Cheng, who faces a pretty intense struggle from birth; cursed with a chaotic spirit that strikes him at the worst times leaving him vulnerable and casting doubt on his ability to one day rule. As the Emperor ages, the whispers in the court grow louder, can Cheng really take the throne? His only true ally is Meiying, a young woman who's spent years secretly training to become a martial arts master. But when she finally returns home, she's met with devastation- her home destroyed and her family gone.

Revenge Re-written: The Billionaire’s Forgotten Bride

Ava Sanders, a 22-year-old woman, marries into the wealthy Sinclair family. Her father, Mr. Sanders, is a loyal driver for the Sinclairs. Ava has secretly had a crush on Alexander, the only son and heir of the Sinclair empire, since she was 15, but she never expects to marry him, not even in her wildest dreams. However, her soon-to-be happiness turns to misery, as their marriage isn’t what she dreams of. Alexander marries her out of spite to hurt his overbearingly selfish and self-centred mother, Evelyn Sinclair, who despises Ava because of her low status as a driver’s child. Ava knows that Alexander does not marry her for love; she doesn’t know the reason why, but she has read books where the male lead falls in love with the female lead after marriage, and she hopes her marriage will be the same. However, after the wedding, Alexander becomes colder and more distant, never explaining why he is always away. Ava’s hope of Alexander liking her back slips further and further out of reach as she is left alone to face the cruelty of the Sinclair household, particularly from her so-called mother-in-law and the maids, led by Madame, the head maid. One day, when Alexander is away as usual, Evelyn orders the maids to lock Ava in a storage room without food or water to remind her of her position in the family. Starved and weakened, Ava knows she won’t last much longer under this torment. In her final moments, Ava prays for a second chance at life before she dies, vowing to change her fate and seek revenge on those who wronged her.
