[Bright Princess x Cold Consort | 1v1, both virgins | HE]

Mutual devotion ❤️ Extra-sweet, no angst ❤️ Jealous hero gets extra jealous

Xiao Ning is a princess born to wealth and privilege.

In her previous life, she couldn't stand her gloomy, cold consort, Jiang Heng. But on the day rebels rose up, he held her in his arms and risked his life to protect her.

When Xiao Ning opens her eyes again, she has returned to her late husband's youth, before anything has happened.

This time, she decides to pursue him and change their ending.

So she disguises herself as a man and enrolls at the Imperial College, showing up in front of Jiang Heng every day.

He avoids her, so she blocks his way after class every day. He responds with silence and resistance, so she smiles boldly right in front of him.

When they are attacked again, Xiao Ning throws herself over him without a second thought. A blade slices her arm, and for the first time, panic appears in Jiang Heng's eyes.

He asks hoarsely, "Why?"

Xiao Ning winces with pain, but her eyes curve into a smile. "Because you're worth it."

Later, the emperor intends to arrange a marriage for Xiao Ning, but her betrothed isn't Jiang Heng.

Jiang Heng, usually so cool and self-possessed, actually dares to tie her up and bring her to his residence, refusing to let her leave.

"Are you crazy?!" she cries, furious and embarrassed.

He gently strokes her lips. "Jiaojiao, you mustn't marry anyone else."

Jiang Heng thinks he must have gone mad.

How dare he covet a princess born to wealth and privilege? But he craves her. He wants her with a maddening intensity.

Tips:

1. A sweet historical romance with no rivalry between women. There's a touch of political intrigue to keep it from becoming too sugary.

2. Both leads are virgins in both lifetimes.

3. Fictional setting, so don't nitpick the historical details.

My new novel, Second Master, Don't Be Like This, is now underway~ See you there!

Here's the blurb:

[Cool woman x Powerful man | 1v1, both virgins | HE]

Powerful man bows his head to beg for love | Woman in disguise, identity revealed | Secret love becomes mutual

Xie Chuan thinks he's gone mad. He wants a man.

The world knows that Second Master Xie is extremely picky about incense, but no one knows he is addicted to one particular fragrance and has been searching for it for ages.

Then a man falls into his arms. A wisp of cool fragrance drifts into his nostrils and sends his heart soaring, setting him all aflutter.

He grabs the man's wrist and asks hoarsely, "What fragrance are you wearing?"

Unable to break free, the man blushes at the ears. "I'm not wearing any fragrance."

Xie Chuan instinctively feels that the man deliberately came after him.

But now that he has found the fragrance, there's no reason he can't have it.

So he takes the man on as his deputy and moves him into his private residence.

He thinks that if he keeps the man by his side for a while, he can have someone recreate the same fragrance, but he miscalculates.

The craving is hard to resist.

Every time they get close, that cool fragrance makes his heart itch unbearably. He can't help leaning in, his nose brushing against the man's hair and neck, almost touching but not quite.

"You smell so good..." Xie Chuan, who has always been free of worldly desires, is nearly out of control.

He wants to get closer, to have more, to possess the fragrance completely, but in the end, he still manages to restrain himself.

Until one night, a certain deputy drinks too much and drunkenly declares that he's in love with Xie Chuan and wants him.

Xie Chuan stares at the man sitting in his lap with no sense of self-preservation, then suddenly smiles after a moment. His voice is terrifyingly hoarse. "You'd better really have come after me."

The Shen family has fallen into ruin, and the clan tells Shen Ling to take her elder twin brother's place and seek an alliance with the second branch of the Xie family.

She agrees when she hears that the Xies are imperial merchants.

But no one knows she came for Xie Chuan, the man who holds power in the Xie family.

No one knows that she has been in love with Xie Chuan for ten whole years.

But she swears she has no improper intentions toward him at all. She only wants to quietly look at him.

When they meet again, he doesn't remember her.

When they pass each other, she acts composed and keeps her distance.

She somehow walks in on him bathing and gets treated like a servant.

Things start getting more and more out of hand.

Until one drunken night, she actually climbs into Xie Chuan's bed!

After a night of passion, she wakes the next morning, guiltily sneaks away, and tells herself it was only a dream.

Who knew that before long, a creditor would come calling?

Shen Ling looks at Xie Chuan standing in the Shen family hall, surrounded by the clan elders, who are fawning over him. Her mind goes completely blank.

He walks straight through the crowd to her. "Miss Shen, I'm here to claim my place."

Tips:

1. The hero loses his memory in the middle and later parts, but there's no angst. It's all tension, testing each other, flirting, and jealousy.

2. Fictional setting, so don't nitpick the historical details.

Theme: Love can heal anything
