Thrown back into the fragile body of her 15 year old self after a near death experience, Nnenna wakes up in a cold and loveless household, an adopted child meant only to keep the true child company. Rejected, ignored, and treated like a shadow, she had once quietly accepted her fate. But this time, things are different.

From mending broken friendships to healing hearts torn by betrayal, she earns "Good Points" that slowly transform the world around her. Yet, as her actions ripple outward, so do the echoes of her past life. Forgotten secrets resurface, her true origins, her parents' fates, and the shocking truth about those she left behind. Along her journey, two figures emerge from the haze of her past and present, a soul she thought she had lost forever and another who had been by her side all along. Both bring the promise of love, but will either of them earn her heart when she finally learns to love herself? With every mission, Nnenna discovers that love is a powerful force, not just for others but for the girl she’s becoming. But what happens when the cost of love threatens the second chance she’s fought so hard to build?
``` El mayor error de la vida de Alicia fue intentar suicidarse. Se encontró en el cuerpo de una princesa de 19 años exiliada, en la Edad Media. ¿Y qué más? Fue forzada a casarse con el príncipe Harold; el infame príncipe de cabello blanco y de mal genio que no dudaría en matar a alguien por la razón más irrelevante. Ahora, su boda es en solo unas horas y la "princesa", que resulta ser Alicia, se supone que debe mostrar algunas habilidades "principescas" a los invitados. Pregunta rápida: ¿Está permitido el twerking en la Edad Media? Una cosa sabía con certeza, la boda iba a ser un desastre y el príncipe de mal genio la iba a matar antes de que encontrara el camino de vuelta a casa. ¡Dios la ayude! ThatAmazingGirl en colaboración con Miss_Behaviour (las escritoras de "Enamorado/a de un/a Cleptómano/a") te traen otro libro. "LA EXTRAÑA NOVIA DEL PRÍNCIPE MALDITO" ¿Qué harías si de repente te encontraras en el cuerpo de una princesa en la antigüedad? Además, él no es solo un hombre lobo, también está maldito por la diosa lunar. EXTRACTO: ¿Qué debería hacer? Estaba confundida y no tenía idea de lo que estaba pasando. ¡Las bodas en la Edad Media eran extrañas! ¿Qué diablos es "Recitación de virtudes"? ¿Debería fingir desmayarse? Ese era el único pensamiento que tenía sentido. Así que eso fue lo que hizo. Se desplomó lentamente en el suelo y escuchó cómo todos comenzaron a jadear y exclamar. Alicia quería que la sacaran de allí y luego encontraría una manera de escapar. Pero tal vez después de todo era desafortunada, porque cuando miró por debajo de sus pestañas, preguntándose por qué nadie venía a cargarla, vio una túnica dorada, antes de que la persona se agachara frente a ella. Cerró los ojos fuertemente y contuvo la respiración. Después de todo, era actriz. Podría hacerlo a la perfección. "Esa fue una mala actuación, mi señora", la voz profunda habló, causando escalofríos en su piel. Aterrador. "Solo te daré tres segundos para levantarte". Su voz no era realmente amenazadora, pero de alguna manera imponía miedo, especialmente por la manera lenta y cuidadosa con la que hablaba. Había oído que era de mal genio. ¿Qué haría después de que pasaran los tres segundos? ¿La mataría? Entonces, ¿moriría aquí? ¿Cómo sabía él que estaba fingiendo? ¿Era la gente de la Edad Media normalmente inteligente? Abrió un ojo para echarle un vistazo y lo vio mirándola fijamente con una sonrisa burlona. ¡No había manera de que la boda no ocurriera! ¡Iba a morir sin duda! ******* Hombre lobo (Comprobado) Príncipe maldito (Comprobado) Transmigración (Comprobado) Comedia (Comprobado) Romance (Doble comprobado) ¡Añádela a tu biblioteca! ```

Suite du guide pour élever mes adorables maris. Mo Qiang, une architecte a été choisie par la fée de la nature qui l'a amenée dans le monde interstellaire où elle a été punie pour faire revivre la nature qu'elle a détruite de ses propres mains en créant une architecture qu'elle pensait ouvrir la voie vers le futur. Maintenant, coincée avec un système de revivification de la nature dans un monde plein de gaz toxiques et de trucs intergalactiques où elle doit tout recommencer à zéro et planter plus de forêts et de récoltes tout en créant un monde vivable pour les humains, Mo Qiang souffrait. Mais ça a l'air facile, non ? Non ! Sur son chemin, elle a trois maris méchants, tous les trois veulent la tuer pour pouvoir épouser sa sœur capable après l'avoir rejetée, elle qui était nulle et bonne à rien. Mo Qiang n'a rien contre eux, en fait, elle est plus que prête à divorcer d'eux après avoir sécurisé sa vie et augmenté sa faveur dans leurs cœurs de sorte qu'ils ne la tueront pas mais —— Pourquoi viennent-ils pour elle maintenant ? Allô, vous vouliez tous épouser sa sœur, non ? Extrait : « Voilà, » dit Mo Qiang en poussant l'accord de divorce en regardant son premier mari qui était doux mais venimeux comme un serpent. « J'ai déjà signé le document de notre divorce, tu peux y jeter un œil — attend, pourquoi est-ce que tu enlèves tes vêtements ? » La sirène la regarda et sourit doucement en retirant ses lunettes et dit, « On dirait que mon épouse n'est pas contente que je ne lui ai pas donné d'enfant, ne t'inquiète pas, je vais travailler dur ce soir. » Mo Qiang : « ….. » Je ne veux pas que tu travailles dur !

J'ai déjà signé — ouah ! Pourquoi tu me mets sur le lit ? » Demanda-t-elle en regardant le visage magnifique. Son deuxième mari la fixa et d'une expression et d'une voix aussi froides que l'eau, dit, « Je dois répéter une scène d'amour, aide-moi, chère épouse. » Mo Qiang : « …… » Ce film que tu tournes est basé sur l'apocalypse Zerg, ne me mens pas ! Avec qui vas-tu faire l'amour ? Un Zerg ? Prends le troisième ! « Huff, huff... c'est l'accord de divorce, signe-le... Je sais que ta compagnie n'autorise pas les idoles à sortir avec quelqu'un, alors tiens signe-le, » dit-elle à son troisième mari qui s'entraînait à danser. La sirène, habillée d'une chemise en soie ample et de la sueur coulant le long de son corps, jeta un œil au document qu'elle lui tendait, puis étreignit Mo Qiang. Une seconde plus tard, elle entendit sa voix sanglotante alors qu'il parsemait son cou de baisers, « Épouse, tu ne me veux plus ? Est-ce le nouvel idole qui a attiré ton attention, je le savais ! Je vais m'occuper de lui ! » « Pose ce couteau, veux-tu ! » Et pourquoi le troisième prince de la famille impériale qui la détestait à mort lui court après avec des fleurs ? Elle a déjà assez à faire ! ….

``` [ Advertencia: Contenido para Adultos ] —Harper, deja de desnudarme con la mirada. La trama no va por ahí... TODAVÍA. Harper McKenzie, una novelista novata de novelas web, tiene un problema: le cuesta escribir escenas románticas. Como alguien con una experiencia casi inexistente en la materia en la vida real, no consigue plasmar la química íntima adecuadamente, y esos capítulos siempre salen secos y vergonzosos. Afortunadamente para ella, Harper encuentra un(a) editor(a) independiente dispuesto a trabajar en su escritura. Pero, ¿la sorpresa? Ese(a) editor(a) resulta ser su amigo de la infancia y su primer flechazo de la vida. ¿Qué sucede ahora cuando él le ofrece lecciones personales sobre cómo escribir el romance más candente... y escenas de amor? -------------- Nota: esta es una historia divertida, acogedora y dulce con una trama de bajo drama. Sin triángulos amorosos, sin malentendidos, sin pérdidas de memoria / accidentes de coche / enfermedades terminales / etc. Abundan los contenidos maduros, empezando de manera suave pero calentándose rápidamente. ¡Estás advertido! -------------- Avance: Deslizó su sujetador por sus hombros y, con un trabajo imposiblemente rápido y hábil, ató la prenda de encaje alrededor de sus muñecas. —Abre más las piernas —ordenó. El ya vacilante corazón de Harper se paralizó aún más. El mando en su tono era extranjero, pero la embargaba como una ola de calor, y aunque apenas podía imaginar lo lasciva que debía lucir, con las manos atadas y los muslos abiertos como un ofrecimiento a ser devorada, podía sentir la ardiente necesidad enrollándose más y más caliente en su interior. Su cuerpo obedecía ansiosamente por su propia cuenta, abriéndose completamente tal y como le habían dicho. Eli sonrió. Moviendo entre sus piernas, dejó besos ardientes a lo largo de su muslo interior, dejando pequeñas llamas crepitantes a su paso. —Buena chica. Ahora, ¿qué debería decir tu personaje a continuación? —Un dedo se deslizó sobre su carne húmeda y deseosa en un suave y resbaladizo roce, haciéndole el corazón detenerse por completo mientras un gemido se le escapaba—. Escribe la siguiente línea para mí, ¿qué debería decir antes de desnudarte con mi lengua y hacerte gritar mi nombre? ```
