A girl who has no family and lives a sad lonely life reads her coworkers romance book "A Lovable Princess". When she falls asleep after taking some pills she wakes up in the body of a baby. It turns out she is now in the body of princess Athanasia from the book but the problem is that princess Athanasia is killed on her 18th birthday by her own father. Now it is her mission to survive at all costs. - I really like this story it cute and heartfelt and tragic all at the same time. Would definitely read again.

Two brothers. One concubine. Seolha’s face was disfigured by her mother, who sought to deny the emperor his prize: the most beautiful concubine in the world. Now forced to endure a lifetime of abuse, Seolha can only pin her hopes on Muon, the emperor’s twin brother. But is he really someone she can trust? -- Mehh? This story is kinda boring and plain but ok.

Wolfgang achieves the triple crown of throne, love and revenge. Shin Soo-hyuk supplements Wolfgang in the position of the treasurer, and Wolfgang pours an offensive affection on him, but draws a line thinking that he regards himself as a spoil, and the relationship between the two is shaken. To make matters worse, a group who opposes the precarious Hwangwon is aiming for Wolfgang..... Can Wolfgang and Shin Soo-hyuk correct the tumultuous Hwangwon and continue the relationship between the two? --- This is the mature version of King's Maker. It picks up after Wolfgang kills the king and takes the crown. I prefer this version but it is quite a bit behind the other. I enjoy this story but I wish mister minister of finance would lighten up a bit.

Wolfgang Goldenleonard, the 4th Prince of the kingdom, returns to the palace after years of living in hiding. He rejects everything about his new royal life, but is intrigued by the mysterious and dutiful Shin Soohyuk, a catamite of the King. As Wolfgang slowly opens up and learns the ways of the palace, Soohyuk begins to see something special about the wild, unkempt, and stubborn young prince. He might just be the one Soohyuk has been waiting for... the one who could light the flame of rebellion. --- This is the original story that is shonen ai. The mature version is Triple Crown but this version is the only one with the first volume and this one is further along than Triple Crown but I would rather read the mature version if possible.

Leo Lombardi’ is a popular & handsome L1 race driver for Team Zeus who is on a winning streak ..Known to all, he is dating J.J., a mechanic on Team Zeus. ... Leo is expected to take home the championship for a second year in a row when his bf ,JJ unable to bear with his lifestyle breaks up with him ...Since then things start going south both professionally & personally .. ---- I really like this story. It is a side of the relationship I don't see often. I like that Leo has to address his bad behavior and that JJ also accepts his own faults instead of placing all the blame on Leo. I also like that JJ still moves to Germany at the end, that he doesn't give up his own desires to be with Leo even though they got back together.

For money, Lai accepts a secret mission from Edwin to pretend to be Ellen, his missing brother & Prince Hector's lover!! Whatever, Ellen-Lai's life in the royal place is subjected to be harsh treated & repeatedly bullied!? Where da hell is Ellen? What secrets lurk beneath the relationship between the crown prince & his paramour? This story is confusing. Could be because of translation. Story took a long time to get to the end and then it ends suddenly and doesn't show any of the final confrontations, just time skips past them.

Astell spent her whole childhood preparing to become the perfect wife to the crown prince whom she loved but in the morning after their wedding night the prince informs her that the former emperor is dead and he now wants to divorce since Estelle "never truly loved him anyway." In hurt and anger Estelle lies to the now emperor and says she never loved him and agrees to the divorce. Since she is no longer empress her father tells her he has no use for her and turns her away. Six years later Estelle is living happy with her young son when the emperor finds her again because of the death of the dowager empress and Estelle must lie to him again, "he is my nephew not my son". Now Estelle must keep the parentage of her son secret from the emperor at all cost so he doesn't get dragged into a life of political intrigue like she did. This story is pretty ok. I really like some parts but the fact that there would be no plot if the two main characters just had a conversation or paid any attention to the others action, is pretty frustrating.

I like this story premise and it is ok so far but the translation is bad and there are different groups on different chapters so things like names and speech patterns are inconsistent. Would like to give it a read if official translation becomes available.

The illegitimate 3rd son of the Marcus Bellet family, Zigrien Bellet is been forced by the eldest son to join the imperial 2nd knights as the personal squire of Commander Idris Klien to spy on the crown prince,Laurent & the commander of the 2nd knights ,Idris Klien know as the prince's dog .. Zigrien was once saved by the commander ,Idris when he was a kid & over the time he developed feelings but soon he caught commander & crown prince having sex & even received the invitation to join. ---- I liked this story. I felt so bad for Idris and everything he had to sacrifice in order to get the opportunity to kill the prince/king Laurent. I wish his relationship with Laurent before he murdered Zin's village. I liked Zin's character for the most part I just feel like, outside of things dealing with Idris he could have been more fleshed out. Overall really good story though.
