Harlan Coben Shelter Trailer

Married to the vegetative prince

In a small village, young Jane Woods' world comes crashing down at just six years old when a terrible accident takes her farmer parents away. Their trailer, heavy with tomatoes, veers off the road and erupts into flames, leaving no chance for survival. Now orphaned and heartbroken, Jane is sent to live with her unkind aunt Betty and uncle Pat, who resent having to care for a child not related to them. Over the next ten years, Jane faces a life filled with hard labor and mistreatment. She’s made to do endless chores, spends long hours working in the tomato fields, receives little food, and endures severe punishments from her unfeeling guardians. Her small frame grows frail and sickly, a shadow of the lively girl she used to be. When Jane turns sixteen, the village buzzes with the arrival of a mysterious visitor—a royal aide on a secret mission to find a bride for the kingdom's heir, the eighteen-year-old Prince Dubois. The once charming and vibrant prince has been in a vegetative state for two years following a terrible riding accident. A witch has predicted that only the kiss of true love from his wife can awaken him. Eager for riches, Jane's vile uncle Pat decides to sell her to the king’s aide, ignoring her desperate cries for help. Ripped away from all she’s ever known, Jane is taken to the stunning royal palace to become the wife of Prince Dubois. At first, she’s repulsed by the idea of marrying someone who can’t even respond, but her resistance begins to fade when she meets the compassionate king, who pleads with her to save his son and the kingdom with her love. Will she succeed?

This Game Is Too Real

Author's message to webnovel readers: Hello everyone, I am Morning Star LL, and I am delighted to meet you all in this way! To be honest, I never imagined that my work would have such a large readership outside China. I was absolutely astonished when my editor told me there were thousands of comments. Before this, my writings were primarily aimed at Chinese readers, and it never crossed my mind that my words would one day be translated into another language. I am both humbled and grateful. I am also extremely honored that my recent work, "This Game is Too Real," has been given the opportunity to reach an international audience. Unlike my previous works, this book is probably the one into which I've invested the most time and effort. It is set in a fictional post-apocalyptic wasteland. The story mainly revolves around a once-thriving civilization that collapses overnight after a disaster. The MC from Earth uses a legacy system to disguise the entire world as a game, leading players on a quest to save civilization. It intertwines the fates of the struggling survivors in the wasteland with mutual redemption, while also uncovering the historical truths buried beneath the dust. This book contains several easter eggs with "Scholar's Advanced Technological System," but mentioning them might spoil the story, so I'll leave it to the readers to discover! Moreover, the overall tone of the book remains cheerful and light-hearted. Despite the world being harsh and full of danger, I believe that even in the darkest moments, the warmth and resilience inherent in humanity will continue to shine brightly, emitting the power to dispel the darkness. It would be my greatest honor if my words resonate with you! And the word "resonate" is also a major clue within the story itself. Thank you! by Morning Star LL —————————————— This game is too freaking realistic! Bricklaying, running errands, picking up trash, delivering parcels... At most, the company lets you experience the hardships of a 996 schedule, but here you can feel the extreme bonus of 007. Alright, enough chit-chat, the great Manager has called me to lay some bricks. That Manager said that as long as we work our livers off, he can get a brand-new set of power armor next month, and then he'll take us to explore a brand new map, picking up even more trash in the vast Wasteland! ... After teleporting to the Waste World, Chu Guang discovered that he had unlocked the "shelter system" and could summon creatures called "players" from a parallel world. From that day on, nothing in the Waste World was normal anymore.
