The training scenes in 'Legacy and the Queen' are some of the most gripping parts of the book, showing Legacy's incredible journey from underdog to tennis prodigy. Early on, we see her practicing alone on cracked courts with a makeshift racket, using sheer determination to perfect her swings. These raw, solitary moments highlight her grit and love for the game, even when she has nothing but her own drive to rely on. Later, when she gets to the prestigious tennis academy, the training intensifies—grueling drills at dawn, brutal matches against elite players, and mental conditioning that pushes her to her limits.
One standout scene involves Legacy facing off against a top-ranked opponent who underestimates her. The way she adapts mid-match, analyzing weaknesses and turning the game around, showcases her tactical brilliance. Another key moment is her training with the mysterious Coach, who doesn’t just focus on technique but also teaches her to harness her emotions, turning frustration into focused power. The matches aren’t just about physical skill; they’re battles of will, where Legacy learns to trust her instincts and defy expectations.
The book does a fantastic job blending sports action with emotional growth. Legacy’s training isn’t just about winning—it’s about proving her worth in a world that constantly doubts her. The scenes where she practices late into the night, or when she pushes through injuries, make her victories feel earned. The academy’s competitive environment adds tension, with rivals becoming allies and allies becoming obstacles. By the final tournament, every drop of sweat and every blister feels like part of her legacy, pun intended.
I loved how 'Legacy and the Queen' made tennis training feel like a high-stakes adventure. Legacy’s early practices in her dusty hometown show her raw talent, but it’s the academy scenes where she truly shines. The montage of her mastering different serves—each with its own personality—is unforgettable. My favorite part is when she learns to 'listen' to the ball, a metaphor for trusting herself. The book nails the pressure of competition, especially in scenes where she’s mocked for her background but silences critics with every swing. It’s not just sports; it’s a story about fighting for your place in the world.

10 years pass. Karmina breaks free and roams amongst the living. Her darkness continues to grow, and the inevitable demise of Humanity hangs in the balance. Yet, there is hope. Eight individuals. A shared destiny. Each one presented a role to the chaos that has ensued, but only one holds the power to save everyone. Love. Hatred. Hope. Death. Fate.
Mom cleared her throat and said, “I have an idea.”
I frowned. “What are you talking about, Mom?”
“I’m talking about I have an idea.” She stood up and leaned on her desk, saying, “We will hold the Queen’s Guard Tournament.”
“I still don’t understand, mom.”
“I propose a tournament with several tests, games, balls, bullfights, interviews, dates and parades. I suggest we go wild with different activities that guarantee the election of the new alpha kings.”
“Okay… I’ll take the bait. Who will participate?”
“Anyone who is an alpha or some equivalent to that. We put their names inside the sky crate so that destiny can choose the 20 lucky ones who will compete for the love of the future sovereign. The three winners will be crowned the alpha kings of the south, east and west. Obviously, the north is occupied by Alonso.”
“And what will happen to Sokaris? He’s mine too, mom!”
“I wouldn’t worry about him, Maddie. In my dreams, I saw him putting on a great show.”
“What will happen if my other fated mates show up?”
“Destiny will take care of it, Maddie. Your mates will be selected. But to win, we must give our enemies a mirage of hope that makes them believe they can govern.”
“And in the end, they will be exposed to everyone, without us having to intervene,” Mom nodded, with a triumphant smile.
I sighed. “If this is our best option, then let’s use the ball that is already being planned as the tournament’s opening event.”
Mom nodded. Dad slapped his hands together and said, “Well… we have a tournament to plan and a lot of announcements to make. Let’s get started!”

Reverse harem / 4 fated mates / Magic / Royal Lycan Family / Vampires
For eighteen years, Xian'na has known only servitude and scorn within the Blue Moon Pack. An orphaned, wolfless maid, she endures the relentless bullying of her tormentor, Jerick, the pack's arrogant future Alpha.
Her quiet existence shatters on her 18th birthday when she is hit with the unmistakable scent of a mating bond—to none other than Jerick himself. But his cruelty knows no bounds. Driven by pride and a dismissive judgment of her wolfless status and unknown origins, Jerick rejects her, leaving Xian'na broken and humiliated.
Yet, in the depths of that pain, something awakens. The rejection is the catalyst that unleashes the truth of her bloodline: Xian'na is the long-lost daughter of Xi'an, the Alpha of all Alphas and the Queen of all. She is the sister to the most powerful Alphas in the world, and far from being wolfless, she harbors a hidden, powerful Alpha female and a fierce wolf spirit within.
As her ancient power erupts, Xian'na transforms from a powerless maid into a force of nature. Now, she must embrace her true heritage and the powerful wolf she kept hidden, not just to survive, but to claim the reign that is rightfully hers. Jerick’s rejection was merely the beginning of her destiny.
This is a dark story with many upsetting themes and triggers.
At first, Corinna ran, not from love, but from the crushing weight of her birthright, the terror of a fated bond she wasn’t ready to accept, and the scars of PTSD that still whispered her ex would one day find them. Though Wyatt knows she is alive, fear keeps her silent and distant. After months in near-total isolation, healing beside someone who once knew her mother, she finally finds the courage to reach out.
For Wyatt, those months are a special kind of torture. Knowing his mate lives but refuses to answer him is almost worse than not knowing at all. He holds his pack together while unanswered calls and unreturned messages slowly break him. When Corinna finally makes contact, the end of the silence gives him and his allies the strength to begin pushing back against the ruthless Council.
As time passes, Corinna cautiously lowers her defenses around Wyatt, allowing herself to see what a true mate bond and a real family are meant to be. But just as it seems safe for her to step out of hiding, Alpha Xander and the Council discover the Sanctuary and launch a brutal attack, forcing Wyatt to hide her once more.
When Wyatt uncovers the Council’s darkest secret, victory seems within reach until Xander slips away and finds Corinna first. Alone and powerless, she faces him at the worst possible moment, with Wyatt arriving too late.
Xander believes he has finally won. He has no idea he has crossed a line that will awaken something unstoppable. Now the question remains: can Corinna pull Wyatt back from the edge and end Xander’s reign of terror once and for all?
