Synopsis
In the grand halls of Averleigh Palace, a competition unlike any other unfolds. By royal decree, the firstborn daughters of noble families must compete for the honor of becoming Crown Prince Alexander’s bride. The trials will test their grace, wit, and resilience, but behind the glittering facade lies a court filled with secrets, ambition, and betrayal.
Lady Evelyn has no desire for a crown, nor for the hand of a prince she has never met. With dreams of pursuing medicine rather than royalty, she refuses to play into the expectations of a future queen. Forced into the competition against her will, she vows to fail every trial and return home as soon as possible.
But when a moment of fate places her at the center of the royal family’s attention—saving King Aldric’s life during a crisis—Evelyn finds herself in the spotlight she desperately wanted to avoid. The king favors her. The prince begins to take notice. And the other contestants? They are seething with resentment.
Yet, unknown to all, Prince Alexander harbors a secret—a love outside the palace walls, one that could unravel the entire selection process. As tensions rise and betrayals unfold, Evelyn must navigate a world of power plays and whispered alliances, all while resisting the undeniable pull between herself and the very man she swore never to love.
But in a game where hearts and thrones are at stake, can she truly escape her destiny?
A tale of duty, defiance, and unexpected love, The Reluctant Crown is a royal romance where winning the prince’s heart may be more dangerous than losing it.

pretty good novel ............I love it .................If you are READING THIS go and finish the novel trust me you will not get dissapointed ...................................................................................................................................MESSAGE TO THE CREATER ----- very little to no information about the world is written !! work needed on this .......... ....... i have been watching this since day 1 so I can tell you as a loyal reader that you need to make the character a bit more attached to the reader *heart to heart* also if possible you can also develop more on supporting characters and their emotional attachment !! trust me it helps alottt .. also *system* is given much less importance you need to make it vast and add alot of skills (active and passive)......make these all work and this novel's popularity will increase tremendously as it is already a pretty good novel................................................................... even if you don't I will still watch this till the end ......... best wishes and regards from my behalf :)0 0 Reply

This story is inteded to be a modern comedic story, well thats what it intends to be, but until now it is just the story of a nouveau riche who just gets drunk on his riches, slaps the faces of all other love rivals and the chicks just love him without real reason.yeah the mc is just too shallow, author says he comes from the countryside and is nice to his parents blablabla, but truthfully the mc is just a vulgar dick, seriously **** out of someones mouth? this story feels too rushed and the sidecharacters are too brainless, like the teacher chick. seriously wtf is she thinking loaning money by prostituting herself. or the one who cucked him also the wenfeng guy, like stfu if you got slapped 3 times you should know to be a bit more careful. also wtf is wrong with the mc showing off his wealth so openly and so fast, in return no one questions where he got all that stuff from. everyone just goes along with it, just normal for poor students to keep national treasures under their pillows and carying around perfectly preserved tang dynasty treasures.0 0 Reply

An amazing novel, instead of going towards the action side of pets, Pet King focuses more on the slice of life and the development of main character and the pets. With each pet being very unique and having a backstory, the progression of pets is simply wonderful, with almost all pets having complete character arcs, you can expect a more detailed characters oriented story.0 0 Reply

I would think this was based off a manga if I didn’t know this was a webnovel.Loved this, I had a slight problem of reading it though. This whole story so far is very and I mean heavily inspired, that I thought it was a webnovel that it got adapted too if I was none the wiser.The manga I am talking about isIs My Reality a Love Game??0 0 Reply

This webnovel is very nice . It starts off quite slow and a little confusing especially with the double names of the protagonist. But later on in the novel it starts to get interesting and substance is slowly added to the novel. If your looking for a book that is fast paced straight from the start than this novel isn't for you but if your looking for a novel that you can fall in love with slowly or at a normal pace this is perfect for you. The author is very nice and considerate and seems very dedicated and the story goes at a pace that can't be called slow but can't be called fast either.0 0 Reply

I have to it's going pretty good so far and I hope he will earn some money in the game for his own stability and to give for his friend, you did say he is very loyal. I just wish the name for his character was unique, that's all.0 0 Reply
