The Heiress Only Wants to Farm

Please Crush Me with a Gentle Male Lead! The Gentler the Better, Ideally in an Ancient Setting!

I've recently fallen for gentle male leads, la la la! But there seem to be so few in historical romance. They're mostly domineering, scheming, aloof, or sickly obsessive. I'm here to ask for recommendations!

Any Stories About Self-Interested Protagonists? No Self-Sacrifice, Taking the Short End, or Saintly Heroines

Strong Female Leads Who’d Rather Throw a Punch Than Waste Their Breath

A strong male lead and a strong female lead, joining forces

A Levelheaded Heroine Who Won't Give Up on Herself for a Man, and Is Actually Smart!

Guys, I’m seriously in need of stories with a clear-headed female lead. Please recommend some!

Feel-Good Stories with a Strong, Sharp-Tongued Heroine Who Never Gets Pushed Around

Looking for books like Starting Over After Leaving the Underworld to Take Down Scumbags.

Strong Heroines Only: No Making the Heroine Play Second Fiddle to the Hero

Ideally, the male and female leads should be equals. I hate it when the story makes the female lead out to be incredibly capable, only for the male lead to show up and immediately put her in her place. It’s so off-putting. If that’s the kind of story it is, it might as well have no romance, and let the female lead serve her country instead.

A Powerful Hero and Heroine, a Clear-Headed Heroine, and Sound Logic

Looking for books like *The Treacherous Minister Wants to Kill Me Every Day*. Can we have more female leads like Lu Yao from this book? She's just perfect!
