Story Notes

Summary

Lady Xin Yue has everything a noblewoman could desire: status, beauty, and the admiration of the court. Yet, her heart belongs to the one man who seems utterly immune to it all-General Wei Jun. A man of few words and even fewer expressions, his silence is both a mystery and a challenge. Their first meeting was a spark at sixteen; now, at eighteen, Xin Yue is determined to ignite a flame. But courting a general who is a national hero and a political enigma is a perilous game. Her every move is watched, her intentions questioned by rivals and family alike. She must navigate a treacherous web of court intrigue, where a single misstep could bring ruin not just to herself, but to the very man she seeks to love.
