Inbu's Heart Prologue
I've travelled far and wide, but nothing compares to my hometown of Bulabutt. Overwhelmed with a sense of pride, I wrote a book about my experiences as a resident of this country and a biography of Prince Inbu. There are still many enigmas in my friend, Inbu, so I hope I can put the record straight.

Inbu's Heart Epilogue
I knew Mei was going to win the tournament the moment I saw her. I think there times when Inbu deliberately sabotaged the contest so that nobody would win, but for some reason, Mei flourished through them. I think it teaches us an important lesson. Looks may get you far, but to truly succeed you need tragedy and open-mindedness. Mei may not have been the hottest girl, but she was by far the smartest.

Inbu’s Heart 1/10
Pressured by his father's demands to find a wife, Prince Inbu holds a tournament like no other to find the woman of his dreams. Thinking nobody will be willing to swim in milk or dance with pigs. He's proven wrong when three hundred women from all over the continent sign up. Among the brave bachelorettes is Mei, a farmer's daughter, who wants to prove that peasants can make a difference. How far will Mei go to win Prince Inbu's heart?

Inbu’s Heart 8/10
Scratching her head at the frail bridges and nuns holding baskets, Mei wondered why the nuns were wearing boots. People were fighting over shaded spots under the trees. Sweat dripped on their chins smearing make-up that had taken hours to put on. Closest Mei ever had to a full makeover was a little bit of mud on her cheeks from her days at the farm.

Inbu’s Heart 5/10
Prince Inbu smirked. His friends would be laughing with him so much if they were here to see him. No woman in their right mind would want to dance with smelly pigs: not even for his hand in marriage. He heard that two of the women drowned in the milk, succumbing to severe dairy allergies. It was sad how far people would go for a bit of power. Sad as it was for the two women, at least their deaths would go down in the history books. He rubbed his hands together, he had to think of some more tasks. He couldn't wait to see the maidens flee because they were unable to let his dragon sleep.

Inbu’s Heart 6/10
The royal gardens were filled with velvet tents catered to the bachelorettes. Mei popped her head out of her tent a few times just to hear what the guards were saying. Would there be any punishments if they saw her ragged hair? She did not know or care. In the working class, there was more to life than a simple hairstyle.

Inbu’s Heart 4/10
Out of the three hundred women who had signed up for the tournament, only 269 made it to the castle gate before sunset. Mei sighed in relief that she was one of them. The tips of her fingers aged with the frost. Rubbing her hands together, she covered her mouth an blew into them. After a minute of panting, she couldn't keep her hands of Bessie. Maidens in lilac dresses laughed at her as Mei kissed Bessie's ears. Many others glared at in disgust. What the hell was she doing showing such affection to a cow? In the higher classes, cows were only good for beef and milk. Bessie may not be as aesthetically pleasing as a horse, but she was loyal and helpful. If it wasn't for the sweet cow, she was certain to be stuck in some bush somewhere.

Inbu’s Heart 3/10
"Is that the farmer's daughter?" "What was she thinking signing up?" "No way would a prince want her?" The first task was designed to sort out the wheat from the chaff. Pantalon's capital city, Bulbabutt was thick with people. Mei knew she was out of place in her brown rags and green apron whereas the other women wore fancy frocks and shiny rocks. Prince Inbu was nowhere to be seen. In his place was a clown dressed in purple stripes and green stars and a yellow nose.

Inbu’s Heart 2/10
Mei stretched her arms, leaning back against the mattress. She rolled over, feeling the sun rays on her face. Even without the chickens crowing, she knew it was time to get up. Two Shih Tzu dogs jumped on her bed. The black one Oxo, pulled the covers away, the white one, Tenshi, licked her hand and using her tongue to slap Mei's face.

Calling Out Justin Timberlake
Disclaimer Before I get any death threats from the fan base. I don’t hate Justin Timberlake. He’s an all-round entertainer. As a vocalist, he’s fantastic and he’s also a good actor and dancer. As awesome as the great things he’s done, he deserves to be called out for all the bad things he’s done.
