Emma Davis is a successful digital marketing professional in her thirties, dedicated to climbing the corporate ladder. Her life has become an endless cycle of work deadlines and business meetings, leaving her with little time for personal connections. That is, until she stumbles upon a quaint bookstore and meets Liam Porter, its charming owner. Unlike Emma, who has always put her career first, Liam chose to leave behind the corporate world to follow his passion for literature. Their lives are worlds apart, but as their paths cross, Emma is drawn to Liam’s carefree attitude and his dedication to doing what he loves. With each encounter, Emma starts questioning her own priorities, realizing that despite her career successes, something is missing. As Emma faces the possibility of a major career move that could take her away from the city, she must decide if she’s willing to risk it all for a future with Liam or if she will continue to sacrifice her happiness in pursuit of professional success. Meanwhile, Liam’s bookstore is struggling, and he must figure out how to save his business. Through self-discovery and navigating the challenges of love and career, Emma learns that balancing ambition with personal happiness isn’t as impossible as it once seemed. Together, Emma and Liam learn that success doesn’t always mean following the rules; sometimes, it’s about finding peace with who you are and what you truly want.

Literary Teacher Isekai

[Participant in the Royal Road Writhathon Challenge] NOTE: Please support in Royal Road. Every like or comments goes a long way. After a painful breakup, a 28-year-old literature teacher is unexpectedly transported to a mystical medieval world with his loyal college assistant. In a land where words have the power to shape reality, their literary knowledge becomes their greatest advantage. As they explore this strange new realm, they uncover a dangerous secret: the godlike creator has lost control, and now the characters are alive—and free to make their own choices. ______________________________________ What to expect: 1. Narrative Driven, the story may be a litrpg but the focus is less from the stat blocks and more to the characters and plot. Although, the stats are still very much significant.  2. Conflicts are real, this means that the main characters don't just get better and move on from past traumas right away. Improvement is gradual. If you don't like waiting, or feeling pain before having the strength to overcome it, this might not be for you (sorry, I've decided to take it to the unconventional direction) 3. There is a potential slow burn romance subplot and potential love interests depending on plot progression and audience interaction. But, I'd like to make it clear that this is not a harem. 4. A whole lot of literary allusions, if you enjoy popular and classic literature, you're in for a ride! 5. Explores the struggles of a modern day teacher in depth. This story is a quest for redemption,  6. The main characters are human, this means that they aren't the typical Mary Sue or Gary Stew kinda characters. Capable of making good decisions as much as they're capable of making mistakes. ______________________________________ Sidenote: It isn't excessively violent, in fact, it's the opposite. Just wanted to put the warning since some chapter has mild descriptions of violence. Erring on the side of caution would be best. ______________________________________ This journey is a quest for redemption, a confrontation of past regrets and the reimagination life and love in a world as fluid as ink on a page.

The scarlet Lamb

Summary The story is a fantasy story with a slight horror aesthetic coupled with slight romance but not too much for this is mainly an action novel. Disclaimer: lots of gore and profanity will be used, with lit RPGs. Yes it's another reincarnation story but one where the MC doesn't know how to make everything in modern time. There will be slight evolution but not much for I want to keep him as close to a sheep as possible but he will get humanoid form but he won't turn into a human. No Graphic R18 scene.
