Write a reviewthis is my 5 th book of author red Queen and that means I have read all her 4 completed books ! do u know how difficult it is to create a masterpiece after masterpiece but this author has done it! her penmanship is amazing! 5 chapters in.... I'm in awe ! wait you're still here ?! just go start reading !
M.A.S.T.E.R.P.I.E.C.E A Compelling and Exquisite read. I would love to rate 100 stars but sadly five stars are the limit. This book is written by TheRedQueen, this only fact is enough to tell you how great written the story is, as she is a proven and renowned writer I've been following for about two years. You should know that TheRedQueen is a very epitome of quality, her writing is impeccably divine and you will find all her books here to be at a print professional standard. Anyway, there are only four available chapters at the moment so I couldn't say a lot about the story, one thing for sure I'm gonna enjoy this journey, maybe I will write a proper review sometime later. Congrats for your fifth book and all the best to you, dear TheRedQueen.
Love this novel... I've been waiting for the updates....Every novels that this author have written is so great and interesting......✨✨✨😊😊😊😇😇😇😇
Ngl, all novels written by @TheRedQueen were all amazing. This novel is captivating and amazing!!!!!! I love how author built the love story between Female and Male lead, that was so heartbreaking and beautiful at the same time. Not just that, author also blessed us with a lot of lovely couple in this novel (Surely makes your heart beating like a drum!!) Highly recommended 💜
TheRedQueen is back!(oh yeah!!!😍💕) She's one of my favorite authors here on WN,and I'm just happy to read anything from her.And her fifth offering is mysterious and intriguing as it is. It's direct,intelligent,not going around circles,and yes there'd be answers.And can I just say her male leads are seductively cold but you feel their warmth😍 Long Yat-sen only said a few words and I'm smitten already🤭 Let's unravel the mysteries together. I'm sure this will be another great story (just like your first four💕) All the best dearest author! 😊😎👍😍
Honestly, don’t need to wait 20 plus chapters to get a feel for this novel. Just knowing it is from TheRedQueen makes it a must read!! Have enjoyed following the Long family and the underworld background that the author has incorporated in her novels. Loved all her novels. Not too long and just enough context to make it a fulfilling read. Look forward to seeing how this novel unravels.
RedQueen has come again to take us to cloud 9💃💃💃💃💃 If you haven’t read any of her books, then you’re missing a lot. Thanks for the 5th book RedQueen🥰

OH MY GOD you did it again!!!!!! Another masterpiece by my favorite author TheRedQueen, thank you so much for writing another great novel for us.... I have read all of your previous and each book is great in its own....My personal favorite is and will always be THE SONG OF THE SUMMER'S NIGHT but this one is also superb (since its about the children of my favorite couple Song Luli & LongJie) as the story of main leads and supporting characters are all interesting and addictive.... Keep up your great work dear author and we readers are eagerly waiting for new releases. Lots of love to you!!!!!!

Author TheRedQueen
Updated author review: TVSW is an R-18 hate-to-lovers romance with a marriage of convenience. There is a short-term love triangle at the beginning of the story between Shao Lin, the detective, and the antagonist (but you can tell which pair is endgame within the first 10 chapters). There are detailed s*x scenes in this book that are labelled. Furthermore, there is a mystery to solve, dangerous encounters, and sexual intrigue. There are no evil siblings, no sexual assault, and no prolonged misunderstandings. Content warning: coarse language, crime, light violence, s*x, smoking, drinking. TVSW has a second romance storyline interwoven with the main plot. Xia and Yuan Bojing spent years in each other's social spheres as sworn rivals, competing to be the next successor of a Secret Underworld Empire. Yuan Bojing antagonizes her. Xia loathes him. But she does not know what to do with Yuan Bojin given their stubborn and competitive nature but beneath their eagerness to compete, there is undeniable attraction and tens*on between them. LX x YBJ is a rivals-to-lovers romance with a forbidden love spin. Disclaimer: Please refrain from rude/mean comments. If you want to offer criticism and critique, please do so respectfully and offer meaningful feedback. It is welcome. Rude comments are not tolerated and not considered valuable criticism if it involves insulting the author. Thank you for your cooperation. Please leave an honest review at any point in the story.
