Summary

Meet Mary Albert, daughter of a rich and powerful duke. With her neat silver ringlets and impeccable manners, she’s the perfect young lady. But Mary harbors an unusual ambition—her own downfall!
 
On the day of her school entrance ceremony, Mary realizes she’s living in an otome game she played in her past life. Not only that, but she’s the villainess, destined to torment the heroine, be expelled from noble society, and end her story in ruin. Most would do anything to avoid such a miserable fate, but not Mary! She cheerfully dives into the wicked role she was born to play, setting a course for catastrophe.
 
However, not all goes to plan. Despite her best efforts to bully and harass the heroine, Alicia, the gentle girl seems blind to Mary’s intentions, even coming to see her as a friend. What must our villainess do to achieve her dreams of doom?!

    Moby-Dick or the Whale

    "It is the horrible texture of a fabric that should be woven of ships' cables and hawsers. A Polar wind blows through it, and birds of prey hover over it."    So Melville wrote of his masterpiece, one of the greatest works of imagination in literary history. In part, Moby-Dick is the story of an eerily compelling madman pursuing an unholy war against a creature as vast and dangerous and unknowable as the sea itself. But more than just a novel of adventure, more than an encyclopaedia of whaling lore and legend, the book can be seen as part of its author's lifelong meditation on America. Written with wonderfully redemptive humour, Moby-Dick is also a profound inquiry into character, faith, and the nature of perception.

    In When Faith Meets Fire: Blood Ties & Broken Vows, Zula Tlholoe delivers a stirring tale of love, duty, and rebellion set in the deeply traditional village of Naledi. Amina, a young woman born into a world governed by sacred customs and ancestral expectations, finds herself at a crossroad between obedience and self-liberation. Betrothed to Kwame—a man chosen by her family and revered by her community—Amina is expected to carry the torch of tradition without question. 
    But her heart belongs to Malik, a quiet rebel with no lineage or wealth, yet full of vision and love that sets her soul ablaze. Their forbidden connection sparks a quiet storm that challenges the very foundations of what it means to honor family, faith, and self. 
    As lobola negotiations begin and wedding preparations tighten like a noose, Amina must decide if her voice, her love, and her future are worth the price of exile. With every chapter, readers are drawn deeper into a richly woven narrative of generational pressure, silent rebellions, and the cost of choosing oneself. 
    Blending lyrical storytelling with cultural nuance, When Faith Meets Fire is a powerful family saga that asks: What do we owe to tradition, and what do we owe to ourselves?
