Rosmei opened preorders for their Singapore English releases of two danmei series: Nan Chan Vol. 3 and To Love a Liar Vol. 2.

To Love a Liar is available for direct international purchase through Rosmei’s site, but Nan Chan is not. Rosmei usually chooses to only purchase English-language distribution rights for the Singapore region, and they are only legally permitted to sell direct-to-buyer within Singapore for series they have acquired in this manner. This is why most of their books are not available for purchase at North American retailers such Barnes & Noble, Indigo/Chapters, or Amazon, and also why they are not permitted to sell many of them internationally through their site.
Nan Chan
南禅
[Synopsis Provided by Rosmei:]
From acclaimed author Tang Jiuqing comes Nanchan, a spellbinding supernatural mystery that weaves Chinese mythology and Buddhist lore into a tale of redemption and revelation.
A disgraced immortal thought long dead. A shape-shifting fish with a mind of its own. A cryptic copper bell that seems to lead them on a wild goose chase—or is it something more?
After committing patricide against the Supreme Father, Jinglin is annihilated for his betrayal, but instead of fading into oblivion, he awakens—weak and diminished—in a secluded courtyard. His only companions: a mysterious bell, a silent stone figure, and a talking fish that soon transforms into a child whom he names Cangji.
When the bell is lost during an attack on their quiet abode, Jinglin and Cangji set off to retrieve it. The trail it leaves behind winds through a series of puzzling, harrowing cases—each one embodying a different form of human suffering. As the mysteries deepen, so do the questions: What is the bell’s true purpose? Why has it chosen this path? And what awaits them at the end of the journey?
Follow Jinglin and Cangji as they unravel a tapestry of memories, desires, and intrigue in a quest for the truth that may be better never uncovered…

To Love a Liar
一骗丹心
[Synopsis Provided by Rosmei:]
Long ago, the immortal Su You descended to the mortal world to learn about human life. Naïve and unversed in worldly ways, he soon found himself ensnared in deceit—until he met Zhao Muya, a self-proclaimed “divine seer”. The two struck a bargain: Zhao would teach Su to understand human hearts and navigate mortal affairs, while Su You would accompany him on his journeys to subdue demons and spirits.
But when Zhao founded the Tiandi Sect, his promises began to fade. Worse yet, he betrayed Su, deceiving him to seize the immortal’s inner core—the very essence that bound the rabbit to his divinity. Stripped of power and imprisoned, Su languished for two centuries.
Now, freed from his seal, Su walks the earth once more—bearing the scars of love and treachery, and a single, burning desire to recover what is rightfully his.
